❓ Frequently Asked Questions

▶

What are Fuji-Q Highland's opening hours and how do I get there from Tokyo?

Opening hours vary by season (generally 9:00 AM-5:00 PM, extended in summer). The best way from Tokyo is to take the JR Limited Express "Fuji Excursion" to Kawaguchiko Station (2 hours) and then a free shuttle bus. Check updated schedules on the official access page.

▶

Do I have to pay park admission or is it free?

Basic admission to the park is free, but each ride has an individual cost (¥1,000-¥2,000 per ride). We recommend the unlimited "Fuji-Q Pass" (about ¥7,000-¥8,500). Buy online at a discount on the ticket website.

How much time do you need to enjoy the whole park?

A full day (8-10 hours) is ideal if you want to experience its 5 record-breaking roller coasters and themed areas. Arrive early: lines can exceed 2 hours on busy days. The park closes rides if there are strong winds.

Spring (April-May) and autumn (October) on weekdays, avoiding Japanese holidays. The worst days are summer weekends (July-August), when heat and rain increase ride closures.
