Exploring Hakone from Your Perfect Base
One of Field Hakone Resort’s greatest assets is its superb location. Situated just a 6-minute walk from the Sengokuannaishomae Bus Stop, it connects you effortlessly to Hakone’s famous loop of attractions. Here are three must-visit sites easily accessible from your doorstep:
- Hakone Botanical Garden of Wetlands (Sengokuhara Shisseikaen): Begin your adventure close to home. A mere 10-minute stroll (about half a mile) from the resort, this unique garden showcases the beautiful, swaying susuki (pampas grass) fields and diverse wetland flora native to the Sengokuhara plateau. It’s a serene and photogenic introduction to the area’s natural beauty.
- The Hakone Open-Air Museum: From the nearby bus stop, a short 10-minute ride will deliver you to one of Japan’s premier art destinations. This spectacular museum harmoniously blends world-class sculpture with Hakone’s mountain vistas. Wander through stunning outdoor exhibits, relax in the therapeutic foot baths, and explore the Picasso Pavilion—an unforgettable cultural experience for all ages.
- Ōwakudani (The Great Boiling Valley): Continue your bus journey from the Open-Air Museum (about 15-20 minutes) to this awe-inspiring active volcanic zone. Witness steam vents billowing from the mountainside, sample the famous black eggs boiled in the sulfuric waters, and on clear days, enjoy breathtaking views of Mount Fuji. It’s the quintessential Hakone geothermal experience.
Field Hakone Resort is more than just a place to sleep; it’s a tranquil launchpad for discovery. Whether you’re soaking in your private bath, enjoying the mountain air on your terrace, or effortlessly venturing out to Hakone’s treasures, this resort promises a stay defined by comfort, convenience, and calm.
