Perched beneath the iconic silhouette of Mount Fuji, Asagiri Plateau roadside station offers a rare experience: savoring artisanal milk ice cream crafted exclusively from locally raised Jersey cows, served in a rustic barn-style shop with panoramic views of the surrounding alpine meadows. Just steps away, visitors can explore the region’s only dedicated farm-to-table market showcasing fresh, seasonal produce grown in the high-altitude soil of the plateau, including rare varieties of mountain spinach and heirloom tomatoes. This is not just a stop—it’s a destination defined by authentic, hyper-local flavors and a landscape shaped by nature and tradition.
