Oshino Hakkai (忍野八海) is a group of eight clear spring ponds located in the village of Oshino, between Lake Kawaguchiko and Lake Yamanakako in the Fuji Five Lakes area. These ponds were formed on the site of a former lake that dried up centuries ago. They are fed by melted snow from Mount Fuji, which takes over 80 years to filter through volcanic lava layers. The result is pure, clear spring water, highly valued by local residents.

It is especially popular in spring for cherry blossoms and in autumn for colorful fall foliage.

Owakudani is one of most famous viewpoints in Hakone, where you can observe the intense volcanic activity from up close. It is said that this place came to be thanks to a phreatic eruption and pyroclastic flow that occurred almost 3000 years ago. The peculiar sulfur smell that spreads throughout the area was the reason behind its second name from the past, Jigokudani (Hell Valley). One of the local specialties is the “black eggs”, whose main trait is in the shells that turn black due to a chemical reaction with geothermal energy and volcanic gas. Head to this unique site using the ropeway, and enjoy a nice view of Hakone and Mt. Fuji along the way.
