2026 Hakone-en Summer Night Festa Full Day Immersion Course
A Hakone course centered on Hakone-en Summer Night Festa, held on August 2, 2026 (Sunday), to be enjoyed along Lake Ashi over the course of one day. At noon, interact with marine creatures at Hakone-en's aquarium; in the afternoon, take the ropeway up Mount Komagatake's peak to take in spectacular views of Lake Ashi and Mount Fuji. In the evening, pay your respects at Hakone Shrine on the lakeshore, admire the iconic torii gate in the lake, then return to Hakone-en to have dinner while securing your viewing spot for the fireworks. At 8 p.m., approximately 3,000 fireworks launch from the lake, with sound echoing through the surrounding mountains in a stunning display. This is the definitive Hakone summer plan that greedily packs in both the best of nature—appreciating mountains and lake—and the spectacular lakeside fireworks.
