Ryokan with onsen · Hakone
Nehako Ryokan Onsen
Our one ryokan night. The part of the trip that felt most distinctly Japanese.
Mountains & onsen
Hakone
Completely different from Tokyo. Mountains, a steaming volcanic valley, a pirate ship on Lake Ashi, and our one night in a traditional ryokan.

Places to visit
The Hakone loop we did
Filtered by what you care about. Crowd notes included, because I know you were wondering.
Ropeway Hakone Ropeway & Owakudani
You pass right over an active volcanic valley with steam rising from the ground.
Cruise Lake Ashi pirate cruise
A slow boat across the lake after the ropeway. Calm, with mountains all around.
Cable car Gora & the Sounzan cable car
The steep little cable car that takes you up to the ropeway.
Nothing with that tag yet.
