Description
Discover Hiroshima's exclusive Seto Inland Sea view! eMTB bike tours through special forest trails with a wondrous peak panorama. End with a visit to Yuki Onsen to wash away adventure fatigue.
Our tour is the only place in Hiroshima to enjoy a little bit high-level emtb journey up to Mt. Omine!
It’s pretty rare to be able to try out riding an electric mountain bike, and with the beautiful sights to see up the forest trail, this tour is certainly something you don’t want to miss out on.
The ease-of-use electric assist function on our mountain bikes also makes the trek a breeze, so beginners can rest assured that their experience will be a blast. The tour here follows a special route allowed for use by the mountain owner, and once you reach the top, there lies Hiroshima City’s tallest peak – Mt. Omine.
Just around 15 minutes of climbing, you’ll find yourself before a stellar view overlooking the entire Seto inland sea! It’s an entire 360° shot of all the mountain and ocean beauty that Hiroshima has to offer.
If the weather is clear, you can see as far as the mountains of Shikoku, and sometimes you can even catch sight of Kyushu.
The tour offers a lunch break after reaching the top, followed by whipping up some delicious coffee right on the spot.
The taste of a hot cup of coffee after a climb is really something to savor!
