A cycling tour that "experiences Hokkaido's Tokachi and Memuro Town with all five senses." This is a leisurely ride that starts from Memuro Town, located at the foot of Hidaka Mountains Erimo Tokachi National Park, which was designated as a national park on June 25, 2024, and allows you to enjoy the majestic Hidaka Mountains.
Approximately 3 hours (distance: approximately 15km)
View of the Hidaka Mountains from Memuro Town
Tokachi's roads are typical of Hokkaido and are straight, but sometimes there are hills. However, don't worry, you can easily ride an electric-assist bicycle if you rent one!
The tour starts in the Kamimio district of Memuro Town, and along the way you can enjoy explanations about agriculture and dairy farming at the side of ranches and fields.
Lunch is included at a hidden cafe where you can see the Hidaka Mountains nearby. The flowers in the garden in front of the restaurant are also worth a look. "Vindskov" is known for its Scandinavian-style exterior and ethnic cuisine, and is a popular restaurant with many repeat customers.
Along the way, you can ride through forests where you might encounter animals, and enjoy the soothing sounds of sunlight filtering through the trees and the chirping of birds. As you climb the slope leading to the Shin-Arashiyama Sky Park Observatory, including some off-road driving, you can see not only the Hidaka Mountains, but also the Daisetsu Mountains in the distance on clear days. After taking in this magnificent view that is truly quintessential Tokachi, you can slowly return to the starting point.
Like other "Sanso Cycling Tours", this tour allows you to fully experience the history, culture, and nature of Memuro Town in Tokachi, Hokkaido with a guide!
