Hakone Viewpoints and Nature

Hakone's landscape is defined by the volcanic activity of Mount Hakone, centered around the caldera lake, Ashi. This collection features the Hakone and Komagatake ropeways, which provide aerial views of the Owakudani volcanic valley and Mount Fuji. Natural highlights include the Sengokubara pampas grass fields, the multi-tiered Hiryu Falls, and several peaks like Myojingatake and Marudake. Historical viewpoints such as the Lakeside Observation Building and Onshi Hakone Park offer perspectives of the lake from former imperial grounds.
