Would a Tokyo - Mt. Fuji - Osaka - Kansai be possible with the JR Pass?

Hi there,

This route is nearly 100% covered by the Japan Rail Pass, but you will need to purchase non-JR travel for the final leg upto the Mt Fuji area. Exactly how much depends on your choice of destination to view Mt. Fuji:

• Kawaguchiko. Use the JR Pass to Otsuki, then use Fujikyu for the final leg up to Kawaguchiko - ¥1110 each way.
• Hakone. Use the JR Pass to Odawara, then use the Odakyu lines up to Hakone (I recommend the Hakone Free Pass for this).

Once you have been up and back to Mt. Fuji, it will be simple to continue onto Osaka by bullet train.

You can look up precise train timetables and costs at the Hyperdia travel planning website and learn how to use Hyperdia through our video blog.

Hope this helps!
