青木ヶ原樹海の豊かな緑に囲まれた富岳風穴。中に入ると夏でもひんやりと涼しく、平均気温は3度。
昭和初期までは、蚕の卵の貯蔵に使われていたという天然の冷蔵庫！国の天然記念物にも指定されています。

The Fugaku Wind Cave is surrounded by the lush greenery of the Aokigahara Forest. Inside, it remains cool even in summer, with an average temperature of 3 degrees.

Until the early Showa period, this natural refrigerator was used to store silkworm eggs! It has been designated as a National Natural Monument.

鳴沢氷穴は青木ヶ原樹海の東の入口に位置し、年間を通して観光客がたえず富士五湖観光のひとつに数えられています。今から1150年以上前の貞観6年(864)富士山の側火山長尾山の噴火の際、古い寄生火山の間を灼熱に焼けた溶岩流(青木ヶ原丸尾)が流れ下ってできたのが、この二つのトンネル式になった洞窟です。

Naruzawa Ice Cave is located at the eastern entrance to the Aokigahara Forest and is counted among the attractions of the Fuji Five Lakes, drawing a steady stream of tourists year-round. These two tunnel-like caves were formed more than 1,150 years ago, in the 6th year of the Jōgan era (864), when Mount Nagao—a subsidiary volcano of Mount Fuji—erupted, and scorching lava flows (known as Aokigahara Maruo) cascaded down through the gaps between ancient parasitic volcanoes.
