Japan Mount Fuji view from Lake Saiko
Lake Saiko is one of the Fuji Five Lakes. If you like it a bit quieter than in town with great views on Mount Fuji. The lake is easy to access by car and provides plenty of areas to explore, including walking paths and scenic spots along the shoreline.
Photography Tips
My personal favorite spot is a bit left from the parking lot, where no people are anymore. Use the small pier as an extra for more composition in your picture than just the lake and the mountain.
Travel Information
A parking lot is right next to the lake. As well there is a nice cafe where you can get lunch. In generell you have a lot of possibilities here.
The lake is also reachable by bus from Kawaguchiko Station, which connects to the Fuji Five Lakes region.
