  • Shimanami Kaido

    Japan’s most famous ride, the National Cycle Route over six islands and seven bridges: from the Onomichi ferry landing on Mukaishima over the Innoshima, Ikuchi, Tatara, Ōmishima, Hakata–Ōshima and Kurushima-Kaikyō bridges to the cycle terminal at Sunrise Itoyama in Imabari, on the blue line the whole way.

  • Kurushima Bridge & Kirōsan

    From Imabari’s cycle terminal over the longest suspension bridges of the route to Ōshima, then up the steep lane to the Kirōsan observatory, 307 m straight above the whirlpools of the Kurushima Strait, and back over the bridge.

  • Ikuchijima Lemon Loop

    Round Ikuchijima, the citrus island, on its coast road: from Setoda’s port and the vermilion halls of Kōsan-ji along the north shore under the Ikuchi Bridge, down the east shore past the lemon groves, under the Tatara Bridge’s towers and back by Sunset Beach.
