Fuji-Q Highland (Fujiyoshida City, Yamanashi), an amusement park with free admission, will hold "FUJI-Q Sweets Walking" on Saturday, April 4 and Sunday, April 5, 2026. The event lets visitors walk a course through the park's cherry blossom spots while enjoying spring scenery alongside Mt. Fuji, sampling mini sweets from five different vendors along the way.
The route covers approximately 1.5km, passing through the park's key blossom-viewing spots. Participants can start at any time within the registration window and move through the park at their own pace, stopping at attractions and scenic viewpoints as they go. Each sweets item is offered in a smaller portion, making it easy to share among companions or to enjoy multiple items individually.
A keyword rally also runs alongside the sweets walk. Participants collect keywords found near cherry trees at four locations around the park. Those who gather all keywords and reach the goal will receive a take-home "Zekkyaki 4-piece set" — a new signature sweet at Fuji-Q Highland.
