Plan description

This is a self-cycling tour that takes you to the Miho Museum and Shigaraki Pottery Village. With a special map in hand, enjoy a moment of wellness for both body and mind with art and cycling. Electrically assisted bicycles make it easy to ride up hills. Even beginners can feel at ease. This is a course that takes you to the very popular Miho Museum and the Shigaraki Pottery Village, one of the six ancient kilns in Japan, where you can experience art. The tour is self-cycling, and you will head to your destination with a special map in hand. The area around the course is full of nature, such as beautiful rivers and mountain trees, and is relatively cool even in the hot summer months. After being impressed by the art and beautiful scenery at the Miho Museum, it is a good idea to take a bike ride around the Shigaraki pottery. Try to find your favorite pottery. We recommend taking the Shigaraki Kogen Railway on your way back. You will be seen off by the Shigaraki raccoons and the wonderful view from the train window. This tour does not include a guide, but we will support your trip by messaging app or phone. If you let us know in advance, you can drop off the bike at the Miho Museum or along the course. (There is a bus from Miho Museum to JR Ishiyama Station) Main stopover spots: Misuji Falls, Miho Museum, Shigaraki Pottery Village Meet at 9:00am Recommended age: 12 years old and above (height 145cm and above) *About cycling support ・On this tour, we will provide support via line and phone for any problems you may have while cycling. ・If you stop cycling midway, we will come and collect your bicycle free of charge. (You may have to wait up to 60 minutes)

・The bicycles used on the tour are 20-inch electric-assist bicycles that are easy for women and beginners to ride. They can powerfully climb hills. ・Staff will provide a detailed lecture before the start. ・This is an unguided tour, so you can enjoy it at your own pace. ・The cycling route selected by the local guide is easy and safe. ・Support is available at any time via a messaging app, so you can rest assured. ・If you leave any luggage that you do not need for cycling at the store, it will be delivered to the designated location and time on the course free of charge.
