Otsuki is an essential railway hub, often considered the gateway to the Fuji Five Lakes region. It is in Otsuki that travelers switch from the JR network to the private Fujikyu Railway line. This line is notable not only for the stunning views of Mount Fuji it offers on clear days but also for its colorful and themed trains, such as the "Fujisan View Express" or the "Fuji Tozan Densha". These trains are specifically designed to enhance the travel experience for visitors heading to Mount Fuji, offering specially designed interiors and large windows to admire the surrounding mountainous landscape, right from Otsuki.
