Japanese peak at 3,776m (4)

I believe the answer is:

fuji

(Other definitions for fuji that I've seen before include "Japan's sacred mountain" , "Mount of Japan" , "Extinct volcano is the highest peak in Japan" , "Highest Jap. mountain" , "Japanese holy mountain" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
