Take a trip to Fuji-Q Highland in central Japan's Yamanashi Prefecture for a ride on rollercoasters boasting serious speed. Meanwhile, nearby Mt. Fuji is open for climbing in the summer months.
Japan becomes a mecca for skiers and snowboarders in the winter—especially to the winter sports hubs of Niseko and Hakuba —with many coming to take advantage of the country's high-quality powder.
Head to the Inland Sea area for cycling routes with fantastic views—including a ride across a 70km bridge connecting Hiroshima with the island of Shikoku. Alternatively, fly down to the subtropical islands of Okinawa where you can jump into a kayak and explore the mangroves in Yambaru National Park, or head to the beach for snorkeling and diving in the crystal-clear waters.
