Japan’s iconic Mt. Fuji looms over this once-in-a-lifetime ride around its five lakes on the Tokyo 2020 Olympic course. Premium bikes, support vehicles, pro photos and local cuisine keep everything seamless while you discover hidden gems like Motosuko and Shojiko away from crowds. Perfect active day blending epic scenery, culture and thrill for friends or cycling fans.
The emerald shores of the Fuji Five Lakes and the Olympic-grade switchbacks of the Tokyo 2020 cycling course serve as the stage for this 9-hour high-impact active expedition.
Provided by MAY31cycling, this journey transitions from the urban height of a 15th-floor Tokyo base to the serene, vertical reflections of Japan’s most iconic peak.
You move through a curated route that includes the hidden gems of Motosuko and Shojiko, experiencing an environment where professional support vans, curated photography, and Hōtō Udon cuisine define the day's energy.
Because this is a highly exclusive private activity with seamless logistics, you should secure your Five Lakes Cycling tour early to ensure a 2026 seat in the chartered vehicle.
Expect a meticulously organized, "once-in-a-lifetime" immersion into Japan’s natural heritage. The transition from the city’s skyline to the mountain’s base is managed with professional support, making a challenging Olympic route feel accessible to those with a moderate fitness level. The environment is one of "world-class cycling," where Mt. Fuji remains your constant vertical companion. Note that participants must be at least 150cm tall to fit the professional gear, and the tour is not recommended for those with serious medical conditions.
Pay close attention to the view at Lake Motosu; our agency finds that travelers who pause at the northern shore capture the exact vertical perspective of Fuji featured on the Japanese 1,000 yen note.
Utilize the support vehicle for your extra layers; our clients, travelers, and our agency suggest that because the vertical temperature can shift rapidly near the lakes, keeping a windproof jacket in the van is a vertical necessity for the 2026 season.
Inform the team of dietary needs at booking; this regional specialty is a vertical standout of Fuji's food culture, and the "Your Friend" guides ensure a version that accommodates your preferences is ready for the 1.5-hour lunch break.
Arrive at the EAST Tower of TOC Ariake by 7:50 AM; the morning prep and bike fitting are vertical requirements for a timely 2-hour departure, ensuring you maximize your riding time before the afternoon clouds roll in.
The visibility and trail conditions change vertically throughout the 2026 season.
