Island Hopping Sea-view Cycling in Shimanami
You can’t talk about cycle touring in japan without being asked if you’ve done the Shimanami Kaido Cycling road. It is admittedly one of the best cycling highways in the world, connecting honshu island (mainland japan) and shikoku island, and in between spanning six different islands with breathtaking views of the Seto inland sea. It’s a tolled road for cars, but completely free for cyclists.
The Shimanami Kaido Cycling road is 70 km cycling route between Onomichi and Imabari. It is the first bicycle road in Japan that lets you cross a sea strait, which attracts cyclists from all over the world, allowing them to enjoy beautiful scenery woven by many islands dotting the Seto Inland Sea from the cycling road.
The Shimanami Kaido area is filled with beautiful scenery woven by the natural beauty of many islands dotting the Seto Inland Sea, and the structural beauty of the bridges linking those islands. Leisurely enjoy the scenery in a comfortable sea breeze.
