Known as Japan's highest-elevation lake at 1,269 meters, Lake Chuzenji offers a scenic approximately 1-hour cruise around its perimeter. Step out onto the deck and feel the refreshing breeze across the water as you leisurely enjoy views of the majestic Mount Nantai and the lush lakeside. Consider enjoying local yuba (tofu skin) specialty cuisine at the lakeside restaurant before or after your cruise.
Tips
Decks are windy and feel cooler, so bring an outer layer. The Funanoeki Chuzenji pier is convenient; check the departure time before enjoying lunch for efficiency.
Best time to visit
