Climbing Mount Fuji may be about to get a lot easier, as officials are believed to be eying up a new tram system to quell overcrowding and pollution on the trails.
According to a report by Reuters, the tram would take trekkers from Fuji’s base to the fifth hiking station of the crowded Yoshida trail, 3.7 miles / 6km from the summit. The plans have yet to be officially confirmed.
