Walk through Owakudani Valley in Hakone, where steam rises from the ground and black eggs promise seven extra years of life. A thrilling day of hiking, hot springs, and views of Mt. Fuji.
If you’ve ever wanted to see the raw power of nature up close, Owakudani is the place. It’s a volcanic valley in Hakone where the ground breathes, the air smells like sulfur, and steam clouds drift through the mountain air.
Owakudani, which literally means “The Great Boiling Valley,” was created about 3,000 years ago when Mount Hakone erupted.
Today, you can hike right through its steaming trails, passing by bubbling pools and vents that roar quietly beneath your feet. On clear days, Mount Fuji stands perfectly in the distance—it’s like watching two forces of nature in one frame.
And then there’s the Kuro-Tamago—the famous “black eggs” boiled in the hot sulfur springs. Locals say eating one adds seven years to your life. Whether it’s true or not, it’s one of the most unique snacks you’ll ever try in Japan.
Our Owakudani Volcano Hiking & Hakone One-Day Tour makes it easy to explore this surreal landscape without stress. You’ll ride the Hakone Ropeway over the steaming valley, hike the volcanic trail, and end your day relaxing in an onsen (hot spring) overlooking Lake Ashi.
It’s the perfect mix of adventure, scenery, and relaxation—all just a short trip from Tokyo.
