Highlights

Kuro-tamago (black eggs)

The kuro-tamago, or black eggs, of Owakudani are as famous as they are terrible to look at. You might wonder if it’s really worth it to eat the sulfur-pit boiled egg, but be at ease; the eggs are tasty and perfectly safe. It’s believed that eating just one will add 7 years to your life.

View from Owakudani’s Visitor Center

Owakudani’s Visitor Center is said to be one of the best places to see Mt. Fuji from. It’s true that the viewpoint has given some amazing shots of the famed Mt. Fuji—be sure to check weather forecasts for clear skies or you may be sorely disappointed.

Hakone Ropeway

Ride 130 meters above Hakone’s Owakudani on the Hakone Ropeway. The suspended car will take you to and from Owakudani’s lookout point; up and down either side of the mountain. The view from the Lake Ashi side can offer beautiful views of Mt. Fuji and the lake, while the ropeway over Owakudani itself gives some truly terrific shots of the valley.
