Mount Fuji Hut Reservation 2015/4/9 12:24
I try to google and search but i still have some questions.

I will be taking the bus from Shinjuku to Fuji Subaru Line 5th Station and taking on the Yoshida Trail to go to Mount Fuji

1) i wish to stay at the last station hut (i presume its the 8th or 8.5th station) then see the sunrise at next morning. but i am kinda of confused which is the one that is at the 8th station or presumably the last few hut at the mountain.

the info i got from japanguide forum during 2014 was as below :-
a) https://www.goraikoukan.jp/reserve/ - is this the last hut to the summit?
b)https://www.fujimountainguides.com/mountain-hut-reservations.html - 8th staion Fujisan Hotel - last one?

2) are there more huts towards the summit? i do not need to stay at the last one. 10-15mins walk apart is good for me, as long its one of the few last huts toward submit? probably online reservation is good as well.

Thank you so very much!

Goraiko-kan hut is the highest on Yoshida route.

But also, Fujisanhotel and Tomoe-kan huts are close to the highest.

It normally takes 90-100 mins from those three huts to the summit without congestion of climbers which hardly seen in the summer climbing season. I suppose it will take 140-200 mins to reach the summit.
There are between 4,000 - 7,000 climbers pass Yoshida route per day, so you can't skip the congestion.
The chance to see the sunrise is 50%.

I found the pdf guide at this link very helpful in general (pages 4 and 7 are helpful on the hut front)
