Owaku-dani Valley - If you take a glance over the vast, dreary piece of land, you’ll notice a white pillar of smoke rising from the bare surface of the mountain… 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.

While there is intense rivalry for the title of Japan’s most gorgeous area, Hakone is a notable competitor. Hakone’s appeal as one of Tokyo’s most frequented and easily reachable excursions is no mystery. The allure lies in its renowned hot springs and predominantly unspoiled natural beauty. Plus, on a fortunate day, onlookers can catch an unobstructed view of Mount Fuji from a distance. Remarkably, Hakone remains considerably more tranquil, drawing city dwellers in need of a calm retreat during the weekends.
