Best way to spend a day in Hakone | Hakone free pass - Round Course
Hakone (箱根) is part of the Fuji-Hakone-Izu National Park, less than one hundred kilometers from Tokyo.
Famous for hot springs, natural beauty and the view across Lake Ashinoko of nearby Mount Fuji, Hakone is one of the most popular destinations among Japanese and international tourists looking for a break from Tokyo.
The Hakone Free Pass by Odakyu Railways is a discount pass for exploring Hakone. It provides unlimited use of Odakyu-affiliated buses, trains, boats, cablecars and ropeways in the Hakone area and discounted admission to selected tourist attractions on two or three consecutive days. Optionally, the pass also includes a discounted round trip from Tokyo's Shinjuku Station.
popular and attractive way of visiting Hakone is by circling the region with five different means of transport (train, cablecar, ropeway, boat and bus), using the Hakone Free Pass.
The round course outlined below starts and ends in Hakone-Yumoto and circles the Hakone region in the counter-clockwise direction. Of course, it is also possible to follow the course in the opposite direction or to start and end somewhere different.
If you leave early in the morning, it is possible to completed the Hakone round course in a one day trip from Tokyo. However, we recommend allocating two days and one night to your visit, preferably with a stay at a ryokan with hot spring baths.

Japan - Day Trip to HAKONE (1080p HD) | Magda T
DAY TRIP TO HAKONE:
Hakone is well known for being an Onsen (hot spring) haven in Japan. It’s a short train journey away from Tokyo so it makes a perfect destination for a day trip. When visiting an onsen, you need to follow a specific etiquette – in majority of them, no clothes or tattoos are allowed! If you don’t feel comfortable being naked, Hakone Kowakien Yunessun is a ‘swimsuit wearing’ onsen and some of them permit band-aids over tattoos.
As we only had one day, we skipped the onsen experience but there is always another time!
GETTING THERE FROM TOKYO:
• Using HAKONE FREE PASS (2 days pass for Y5.140) can be purchased from ticket vending machines at all Odakyu line stations and also at Shinjuku station West Exit 1F at Odakyu Sightseeing Service centre.
• Take Odakyu Railway to Odawara and change there to Hakone Tozan Train – price of the return ticket is included into the Hakone Free Pass which also covers all the transport in the Hakone area and discounted prices on entry fees to majority of the attractions & restaurants
• From Shinjuku station to Hakone-Yumoto on the ODAKYU ROMANCE CAR (express train 75 mins) with reserved seats but need to buy a supplementary ticket for Y1.090 to addition to regular train tickets - can be purchased at the same places as the pass & also online
OUR ITINERARY:
????Tokyo Shinjuku to Hakone-Yumoto on the Odakyu Romance Car

Hotel de Yama Japan - Hakone Lakeside
This resort hotel is located on Lake Ashi. When I visit Hakone jinja Shrine, I always stay here. I could see Mt.Fiji from my room. I like the open-air bath of this hotel. If you soak in the open-air bath when there is no one, The Dragon King who lives in Lake Ashi may come to see you. I recommend French toast for breakfast, It’s very delicious.

15 Things to Do Near Tokyo, Japan - Visiting Yamanashi, Shizuoka & Kanagawa Prefectures
Volcanic activity in Ōwakudani (大涌谷), Hakone (箱根町), Japan (日本)
Sulphur vents in Ōwakudani (大涌谷) seen from our travel bus during our trip to Hakone (箱根町), Japan (日本) on Friday, Sept. 18, 2015.
Ōwakudani (大涌谷, meaning 'Great Boiling Valley') is a volcanic valley with active sulphur vents and hot springs in Hakone, Kanagawa Prefecture (神奈川県), Japan. It is a popular tourist site for its scenic views, volcanic activity, and especially, Kuro-tamago (黒卵, meaning 'black egg') — a local specialty of eggs hard-boiled in the hot springs. The boiled eggs turn black and smell slightly sulphuric, and consuming the eggs is said to increase longevity. Eating one is said to add seven years to your life.
Access to Ōwakudani is via a funitel, the Hakone Ropeway (箱根ロープウェイ). There is also a road to a visitor's center just below the Kuro-tamago hot springs site. The funitel offers a vast view of both Mount Fuji on clear days and the sulphur vents just below the visitor's center. The tourist site in Ōwakudani was closed in May 2015 due to volcanic activity and reopened on April 27, 2016.
Hakone (箱根町/Hakone-machi) is a town in Ashigarashimo District in Kanagawa Prefecture. Hakone has been designated as a Geopark by UNESCO. Most of the town is within the borders of the volcanically active Fuji-Hakone-Izu National Park (富士箱根伊豆国立公園), centered on Lake Ashi (芦ノ湖/Ashi-no-ko).
The Hakone Tozan Railway (箱根登山鉄道/Hakone Tozan Tetsudō) is a private railway company in Japan, part of the Odakyu Group. It is best known for its operation of the Hakone Tozan Line, the first mountain railway in Japan, but like most Japanese railway companies, also operates bus service, namely Hakone Tozan Bus. It also operates the connecting Hakone Tozan Cable Car.
The Hakone Tozan Line consists of two sections: a lower section from Odawara to Hakone-Yumoto, and an upper section from Hakone-Yumoto to Gōra. At Gōra, a cable car is available to transfer visitors to and from Lake Ashi.
