Cycling the Shimanami Kaido

Cycling the Shimanami Kaido

Linking the beautiful islands of the Seto Inland Sea, the Shimanami Kaido is a spectacular road that attracts over 300,000 cyclists a year, many from overseas. The 70km-long route is easy enough for beginners, and is best taken at a leisurely pace to enjoy its many attractions. The usual starting point is Onomichi in Hiroshima Prefecture. Along scenic coastlines and over towering bridges, you can explore the diverse delights of these islands, riding through lemon groves of Ikuchijima, sampling the area's amazing seafood and discovering its rich maritime history. Take as long as you like: there's plenty to do and see before you reach the end of the road at Imabari in Ehime Prefecture.
