Escape to Japan's Countryside Once International Travel Resumes

Whilst international travel is still off the table for now, Japan's best Hot Spring town, Kinosaki Onsen, wants you to keep dreaming about your next Japan adventure. And since recent times have been challenging, what better way could there be to recharge your batteries and rediscover the pleasures of travel than by cycling the peaceful countryside of Japan?

When wrapped up in the well-known bucket-list items, travellers often risk to miss out on the charm of Japan's idyllic, unique countryside. Just 2.5 hours from Kyoto and Osaka, Kinosaki Onsen's traditional atmosphere lures discerning travellers with an authentic experience all around.

One spectacular way to explore the charms of Kinosaki Onsen and its surrounding countryside, from its vast rice fields to its sparkling rivers, is by bike. Visit Kinosaki offers two cycling tours:

Kinosaki Picturesque Riverside Cycling Tour: Starting in Kinosaki, this tour will make you discover breathtaking landscapes located just a short bike ride away from the onsen town. Accompanied by an English-speaking guide, bike past lush green rice paddies, quaint rural homes, and along the Maruyama River. See hidden sights that are hard to access by road such as the mythical Dragon Palace atop a small island out at sea. A unique experience you won't find in any guidebooks!

Kannabe Highlands Cycling with Apple Picking & Organic Lunch: Together with a knowledgeable guide, cycle along vast rice fields, cultivated farmlands, and villages in between broad-leaved trees. 

While cycling, harvest and collect ingredients grown in the rich nature of the Kannabe Highlands and enjoy cooking your ingredients at Rin-en Farm, a spacious area with vegetables that you will pick for your meal. Refresh the body and mind as you stop by the Hattan Falls, a waterfall created naturally by a group of volcanoes, as well as a cave which exhales cool wind from its opening. From September to November, have even more fun during your adventure with apple picking included in the tour.
