Tokyo to Kawaguchiko Trains

Traveling from Tokyo to Kawaguchiko by train is a smooth and scenic escape from the city to the foothills of Mount Fuji. The route spans approximately 114 kilometers and is easily accessible thanks to the Fuji Excursion Limited Express, which offers direct service from Shinjuku to Kawaguchiko in under 2 hours. With multiple departures daily, it’s a convenient choice for day trips or weekend getaways.

Passengers enjoy a comfortable ride in modern, air-conditioned trains equipped with reserved seating, large windows, and onboard amenities such as power outlets and Wi-Fi. As the train departs the urban sprawl of Tokyo and winds into the Yamanashi countryside, travelers are treated to panoramic views of rolling hills, quiet towns, and—on clear days—the iconic silhouette of Mount Fuji.
