Winter Hiking Mt. Shiomi | Stunning Mt. Fuji Views in Japan’s Southern Alps

Mount Shiomi (塩見岳) in Japan’s Minami Alps is one of the country’s 100 Famous Mountains, offering some of the most stunning Mt. Fuji views you can find. In this video, I take you on a winter hike to the summit of Mt. Shiomi, showing off its dramatic ridges, snow-covered landscapes, and peaceful alpine atmosphere. While I hiked it in the colder months, Mt. Shiomi is beautiful in all seasons — and now, with the summer road to Torikura trailhead open, it’s more accessible by public transport. If you’re looking for an alternative to Mount Fuji that’s less crowded yet equally breathtaking, Mt. Shiomi might just be your next adventure. 📍 Highlights: ❄️ Winter hiking in Japan’s Southern Alps 🗻 Unforgettable Mt. Fuji views 🚶‍♂️ Challenging alpine ridge trails 🌄 Why Mt.
