Aokigahara Forest, located at the northwest base of Mount Fuji in Yamanashi Prefecture, is a dense, primeval woodland known for its striking natural beauty and unique volcanic landscape. The forest floor, formed by hardened lava from Mount Fuji's eruption in 864 AD, creates an otherworldly terrain covered in moss and twisted tree roots. Visitors can explore designated walking trails like the Ice Cave and Wind Cave routes, experiencing the forest's serene atmosphere and geological wonders.
