Framed by the forested caldera of Mount Hakone, Lake Ashi offers one of Japan’s most iconic views—clear days reveal Mount Fuji rising above mirror‑like waters. Glide across the lake on whimsical pirate‑style pleasure boats or ferries, soak in nearby hot springs, and stay in a traditional ryokan to soak up the area's historic charm along the old Tōkaidō route.
