Morning drives from Kanagawa toward Gotemba and Oyama
Turn a Route 246 morning break into breakfast and shopping
The shop and produce market open early, so this can be more than a toilet stop. Browse vegetables and flowers, then have breakfast at the restaurant from 8:00. Once Kintaro Bakery opens, pick up bread for the car.
Near the Yosawa intersection on National Route 246; easy to include when coming from the Tomei Expressway Gotemba interchange area.
The bakery and stand open later than the main station facilities. Check each outlet's hours for a morning stop.
Drivers wanting a substantial midday break and families with different appetites
Make the Mount Fuji-view restaurant your lunch stop
The modern Japanese-style restaurant faces Mount Fuji and serves set meals, rice bowls, curry, and noodles. Some may choose Kintaro Power Rice Bowl or Mount Fuji curry; children can have a kids' meal, while lighter eaters can choose soba or udon.
Decide whether to shop at the produce market before or after eating to keep the visit simple.
Holiday lunchtimes and event days can make the restaurant and bakery busy. Browsing the bakery or shops first can help pass the wait.
Driving breaks with preschool and elementary-school children
A short family break here, then more play at Kintoki Park
Yosawa Park, the rest room, and a baby care room make the station enough for a short break. If the children still have energy, continue to Kintoki Park for its Kintaro Terrace, lawn, play equipment, and roofed sumo ring.
Michi-no-Eki Fujioyama → Kintoki Park; approximately 10 minutes by car.
In midsummer or rain, use the station's rest room first and keep outdoor play short.
Race and event spectators, early departures, and breaks on the return trip
Stock up before a Fuji Speedway visit
Before heading to Fuji Speedway, expect congestion near the venue and use the station's toilets while picking up drinks, bread, and boxed meals. On the way back, pause in the 24-hour rest room before rejoining Route 246.
Michi-no-Eki Fujioyama → Fuji Speedway East Gate area; approximately 10–15 minutes by car.
Traffic and parking conditions change during major events. Prioritize Fuji Speedway's official calendar and traffic guidance.
Adults and families with grandparents seeking scenery after a meal
Add cherry blossoms in spring or autumn leaves in fall
In spring, go to Fuji Reien, known for cherry blossoms; in fall, visit Hōmon Park for autumn leaves and historic buildings. A single added stop turns station shopping into an easy seasonal outing.
Fuji Reien is about 15 minutes away by car; Hōmon Park about 10 minutes.
Blossom and foliage timing varies. Check current updates from the tourism association or facility before setting out.
Photography, a short Mount Fuji viewpoint visit, and clear-weather detours
Put Chikai-no-Oka first on a Mount Fuji day
Chikai-no-Oka Park is a viewpoint on the Kintaro Fujimi Line. If Mount Fuji is the priority, see it while skies are clear, before shopping at the station.
Michi-no-Eki Fujioyama → Chikai-no-Oka Park; approximately 15–20 minutes by car.
The Oyama Tourism Association says the park reopened on August 11, 2026, after renovation. Check its current visitor information before going.
