Overview

Amidst your travels, take leisurely rides through rice paddies to rejuvenate body and mind. Ryugon proposes “pottering”—cycling aimlessly without a set destination, simply following your mood. The greatest charm lies in experiencing the ever-changing rural scenery through all five senses. In spring, water fills the rice paddies, creating a mirror-like surface reflecting the snow-capped mountains. Summer brings the vibrant breeze of greenery, and autumn unveils a “golden” world that even locals find breathtaking. This distance—farther than walking yet closer than driving—allows you to find your own special seat away from the daily hustle and bustle. At Ryugon, we provide high-performance BESV e-bikes that make even hills effortless, so you won't break a sweat. We also recommend a route immersing you in the silence of the historic Undo-an temple and strolling along the historic Maki-no-dori street. As you ride through the breeze, the unique character of this land awaits you.
