The easiest “Cafe x River” course is a flat 21km ride along the Kuriyama River to the ocean beach, stopping off at popular shops and homestyle cafés in Yokoshibahikari Town along the way. The longer 34km “Gourmet x Sea” course is also relatively flat, departing from Narutou Station and the cliff-hanging Namikiri Fudoin temple in Sammu Town, then cycling down to the beautiful coastline along Kujukuri Beach. Stop for a fresh seafood meal and shop for local Kujukuri produce, seafood and souvenirs at Road Station Orai Hasunuma, right next to Hasunuma Seaside Park. The last 6 kilometers are a bit more hilly, so you can also opt to return your bike at Orai Hasunuma and take a 20-minute taxi ride back to Naruto Station (or the shuttle bus to Narita Airport).

Access to Kujukuri Cycling Courses

Each loop course begins and ends at a convenient place where you can get information, take a rest, have a bite to eat, and most importantly, rent and return your bike. Narita Airport Onsen Sora no Yu is a 3-minute walk from Shibayama-Chiyoda train station. You can also take a free shuttle bus from Narita Airport Terminal 2 or 3. Attuned to the local area and closer to the sea, Yokoshiba Station Information Exchange Center Yoridokoro is located right outside Yokoshiba Station, which is about a 40-minute bus ride from Narita Airport. The Narutou Station Tourist Exchange Center, housed in a small community building made from local Sammu cedar, is 1 hour away from Tokyo Station on the Shiosai Express train. There is also a shuttle bus from Narita Airport Terminal 2.
