Fuji Mountain Hike

Start date: 09/28/2025
Start time: 7:00 AM

Description:

The hike begins below the 5000 foot mark and rises past the 7000 foot mark at the peak. The first mile is steep as is the last mile to the top of the peak. At about the 3 to 4 mile mark are two pretty lakes. On a clear day, the view from the summit can include Mt Hood, Mt Thielsen, the Three Sisters and Waldo Lake.

We will meet at the LCC east parking lot and leave promptly at 7:00 am. We will take Hwy 58 through Oakridge and past the Hwy 58 tunnel, turn left at Waldo Lake Road 5897, go 2 miles to the trailhead with parking along the road.

Trip Report

Fuji Mountain is a nice hike. We started early, kept a good pace, and avoided the warmer temps which came later. We saw no one else until after we reached the peak. There were several bikes and hikers during the second half of this popular hike. We enjoyed our snack break on the peak, in the sun, while looking out over the wonderful view afforded by a 7000 foot+ peak.
