What to expect

Itinerary
This is a typical itinerary for this product

Stop At: Kakeyama, Oasa, Kitahiroshima, Yamagata District, Hiroshima 731-2104, Japan

Our electric bikes offer an effortless way to ride up steep hills, providing a unique and enjoyable experience for our guests. Even those who have never ridden an ebike before will be amazed by its power and stability. Once at the top, visitors can enjoy breathtaking panoramic views of the town of Oasa and the surrounding countryside, which is particularly impressive due to the mountainous terrain. Despite its stunning scenery, this place is rarely visited by the locals. One of the reasons why this tour is so special is that not many people come to this site. However, our guests have praised this picturesque location for its beauty and uniqueness.

Duration: 1 hour

Stop At: Tengushide Grove of Oasa, Tawara, Kitahiroshima-cho, Yamagata-gun 731-2105 Hiroshima Prefecture

This grove is home to a rare species of trees called Tengushide. These trees are a variant of Inushide Hornbeam and are found only in this area. They are protected by the government due to their unique scientific significance and are considered treasured species. Not only are they visually distinct, but they also possess unique features that make them special. In the past, people may not have understood their scientific value, but they still preserved the grove for other reasons.

Duration: 1 hour

Stop At: Ainosato Herb Garden, 11654-1 Ōasa, Kitahiroshima, Yamagata District, Hiroshima 731-2104, Japan

As part of our journey we will stop for lunch at the Aino Sato Herb Garden. This restaurant serves a variety of fresh and locally grown vegetables and edible flowers that are completely free of harmful pesticides. You will be pleasantly surprised at how delicious these natural foods taste. The restaurant is also committed to using only natural ingredients and avoiding the use of additives in their dishes. There is also a vegan-friendly menu available on request with advance notice. After our meal, we can take a leisurely stroll through their garden to appreciate the beauty of the flowers, herbs and vegetables grown there.

Duration: 1 hour

Stop At: 九門明のポプラ並木, 3054-1 Ōasa, Kitahiroshima, Yamagata District, Hiroshima 731-2104, Japan

This area is home to a picturesque farming community that has retained its traditional appearance from the past. The community is made up of quaint houses, numerous rice fields, streams teeming with wildlife and hidden gems that tourists rarely get to see. Cycling around the community is fun in itself, but we can also stop at certain locations to immerse ourselves in Japanese culture, making the journey even more special by learning about the lives of the locals, which are centred around agriculture.

Duration: 1 hour

Stop At: Oasa, Kitahiroshima, Yamagata District, Hiroshima 731-2104, Japan

Oasa's main street, once a bustling hub of people and shops, is now quiet and unhurried. The old buildings that remain are a testament to the town's past prosperity. Despite this, there are still a handful of shops on the street that cater to the needs of people from both inside and outside Oasa. It would be fascinating to explore these businesses and perhaps meet and interact with their owners. Learning about their passions and aspirations could have a positive impact on your life.

Duration: 1 hour
