Our First 3000m+ Hike In Japan | Mount Tateyama 

Our first 3000m+ hike in Japan - Mount Tateyama part of the Chubusangaku National Park. We absolutely love hiking in Japan since there are so many amazing Japan hikes to choose from in every region. In this video, we take a short break from our van life Japan trip and head to Mount Tateyama in the Japanese North Alps.
Mount Tateyama is located in Toyama Prefecture in the Chubu region of Japan and most easily accessed by taking the Tateyama Kurobe Alpine Route from Tateyama Station to Murodo Station. Hiking Mount Tateyama is popular, especially during the summer months since its one of Japan's 3 Holy Mountains and 1 of the 100 famous Japanese mountains otherwise known as "hyzakumeizan" in Japanese.
The Mount Tateyama trailhead starts outside Murodo Station and the hiking course is easy to follow. There are some hotels, huts and a campground for anyone who is looking for overnight accommodation near Mount Tateyama or whole hiking in the North Alps.

WHO AM I?
After spending 9 years travelling the world, I came back to my home country of Japan and converted an old delivery van into my dream custom campervan with my Scottish girlfriend Ruth. Follow along on our van life in Japan road trip as we travel to all 47 Japanese prefectures and visit places off the beaten path in Japan.
