Everyone’s favorite: date-stamped branding mark

Munatsuki Sanso offers the only commemorative branding mark that includes the exact date of your Mt. Fuji climb.

The stamping service is available from 5:00 to 17:00.

Futon drying scene

Traditional futon drying

Every morning (except in bad weather), we carry futons outside one by one and dry them in the sun—even unused ones.

Futons are aired for at least one hour per side. Futons dried so close to the sun are something special—perfect for recovering from your climb.

This is an essential task for us, as we want you to feel, “I’m glad I stayed at Munatsuki Sanso.”

Also featured in the photo book 'Hosu: A Journey Through Japan’s Sun-Drying Scenes' (Yutaka Nishimura, 2021).

A collection that captures Japan’s remaining “drying” landscapes—sun-drying scenes filled with the wisdom of those before us.
