    Aokigahara Forest

    Located at the base of Mount Fuji, Aokigahara Forest—also known as the Sea of Trees—is a calm, green escape shaped by old lava flows and thick mossy ground. The forest feels quiet and peaceful, with shaded trails and unique volcanic scenery along the way. The tour also includes Dragon Cave (Ryūgū Cave), a natural lava cave formed by past eruptions. With its cool air, textured rock walls, and ties to local legends, the cave adds a simple touch of adventure and history to your walk through the forest.
