Studless Tires Available on Select Vehicles
Located at an altitude of approximately 900m, the Kawaguchiko area experiences temperatures 5-6°C lower than Tokyo. During winter, snow accumulation and road surface freezing can occur. Studless tires are strongly recommended for safer driving. Please note that not all vehicles are equipped with studless tires - availability varies by vehicle.
Limited availability during peak winter season
Operate accelerator and brakes gently. Maintain 3x normal stopping distance.
Maintain at least 2x normal following distance while predicting the movement of vehicles ahead.
Reduce speed sufficiently before entering curves. Avoid braking while turning.
Completely remove frost and snow from windows before departure. Check wipers and washer fluid.
Plan for 1.5x normal travel time. Check weather and road information in advance.
Be especially careful when driving first thing in the morning. This is when road surfaces frozen overnight are most slippery. Also, shaded areas, bridges, and tunnel entrances/exits are prone to freezing, so reduce speed and pass through carefully.
