This is a limited-time special plan for 2024, and is a small-group tour limited to a maximum of 5 people! Aren't you worried about planning an outdoor activity that might tire you out on your precious day off? If you are worried that mountain biking is not for you, or that cycling is not physically viable, we recommend this special experience plan! Unlike regular tours, there is no climbing. (You just go down) As you can see in the picture, you will be riding a mountain bike through a "real forest" that you can't experience on other tours, so even those who are not physically fit can rest assured. The time includes a simple explanation of how to ride and preparations before departure, so the actual riding time is about 1 hour from the time of gathering to the time of returning, and it will be completed within 2 hours (if everything goes smoothly, it will be about 1 hour and 45 minutes). Moreover, the rental set is free, so you can experience MTB empty-handed! Also, this plan is a fully private reservation. This is a special plan for this year only, with limited numbers and numbers, because this tour is a bargain at this time of year. Unlike other tours, you will not be joining with other customers, so you can enjoy it at your own pace! *Please note* (If a child under 140cm tall is participating, we do not have a bicycle that is suitable for the course, so you will need to bring a bicycle that you are used to riding. For this plan, rentals start from XS size 26 inches. (Anyone with a height of about 140cm can ride it, and even people around 135cm can ride it if they are used to riding bicycles.) *There are no rental bicycles under 26 inches. This is because it is difficult to ride a bicycle with small tires in a real forest. *In addition, "being able to stand on the pedals" and "being able to brake by holding the brake lever with your hand" are also guidelines for participating in the tour safely. However, even if you do not meet these conditions, if you are interested in participating, please feel free to contact us! We will consult with you as much as possible! If you have the desire, we can do something! Maybe?! Maybe^^

In exchange, you will be able to use a lot of different moss.*
