Miles of Wonder – Jogging and Cycling Through Asia’s Secret Retreats - Japan

The Junei, Kyoto, Japan

Active Journeys That Inspire the Soul

When you jog or cycle while on vacation you do more than simply exercise, you connect deeply with your surroundings. The air, the sounds, and the rhythm of daily life become part of your journey. Within the Secret Retreats curated collection, many properties are located in landscapes so extraordinary that your morning routine transforms into an unforgettable experience. Every step and every turn of the wheel allows you to truly feel the destination in a way few other activities can offer.

Scenic Riverside Routes – The Junei, Kyoto, Japan

Kyoto is a city that has long captured the imagination of travelers with its timeless charm, and at The Junei it also becomes a paradise for runners and cyclists. The retreat is ideally situated near the scenic Kamo River, where riverbank trails invite you to begin each day with purpose and serenity.

In spring, the paths are framed by delicate cherry blossoms that create a magical canopy above. By autumn, the same trails are set ablaze with fiery red and gold foliage, making every stride or pedal stroke a vivid sensory experience. The peaceful river setting ensures a perfect balance between tranquility and invigoration, allowing travelers to recharge their bodies and minds.

After your jog or cycle, the treasures of Kyoto are just moments away. You can explore the serene gardens of the Imperial Palace, pause at traditional tea houses, or wander through narrow streets lined with wooden machiya townhouses. This seamless blend of physical activity and cultural discovery makes Kyoto an ideal destination for active travelers seeking more than sightseeing.
