Owaku-dani Valley, Hakone-machi

Beautiful view! Strong smell. Special experience. The guided tour into the volcano area is very limited access and has to be reserved several days in advance, which is quite inconvenient. The black egg is interesting and tasty.

Easy to find, lovely atmosphere (not counting the dreadful smell of sulphur of course😆) . The ride on the gondola was nice and provided a lovely view on approaching the lake. The weather tho obscured Mt. Fuji ☹️ I liked that I could buy a one way or return ticket and use it anytime throughout the day. I do think that ¥2250 (return) is a rather pricey ride tho but I guess it's a tourist attraction. I didn't like that the minimum number of eggs I could purchase was 5 - felt like a waste of resources since I couldn't eat that many and 3 ended up in the trash. All round nice experience - I recommend it.
