The map below shows the train, cablecar, ropeway, boat and major bus lines to be used with the Fuji Hakone Pass:

Validity

Round trip from Tokyo

  1. One round trip by Odakyu Railway between Tokyo's Shinjuku Station and Odawara Station.
  2. You may use local or express trains; however, if you use a "Romance Car" limited express train between Shinjuku and Hakone, a seat reservation is required and costs an additional 1200 yen one way (or 1150 yen if using an e-ticket). E-tickets can be purchased on the e-Romancecar website, while paper tickets are available at ticket machines and ticket offices of Odakyu stations.

Free area

  1. Unlimited use of the Hakone Tozan Railway (between Odawara and Gora), the cablecar and ropeway from Gora to Lake Ashinoko, sightseeing ships on Lake Ashinoko and many buses in the Hakone area, including Hakone Tozan buses and the Odakyu bus between Togendai and Gotemba.
  2. Unlimited use of Fujikyu buses between Gotemba and the Fuji Five Lake region and between Gotemba, Gotemba 5th Station, Yeti and Grinpa.
  3. Unlimited use of the Fujikyuko Railway Line between Kawaguchiko Station and Otsuki Station and of regular Fujikyu buses in the Fuji Five Lake region, including the Omni buses around Lake Kawaguchiko and Lake Saiko (but not including the bus to the 5th Station).

Other conditions

  1. Discounted admission to selected attractions in the Hakone and Fuji Five Lake areas.
  2. The Fuji Hakone Pass is valid on three consecutive days.
  3. The pass is available only to non-Japanese passport holders.

Points of sale

Odakyu Sightseeing Service Centers at Shinjuku Station in central Tokyo and Odawara Station, and at Fujikyu Otsuki and Kawaguchiko stations.

The pass can be purchased also through third-party vendors, such as Japan Experience, but will require an exchange of vouchers in Japan. It provides no advantages over purchasing directly through Odakyu, unless you can earn points through a particular vendor or the like.

Assessment

This pass can pay off if you visit both Hakone and the Fuji Five Lakes and make use of the buses around the Fuji Five Lakes. If you do not use buses in the Fuji Five Lake region, a Hakone Free Pass combined with regular tickets can come cheaper.
