— What You Can Expect —
Choose from an e-bike that can easily climb hills or a two-seater ride where two people work together! The Shimanto River, with a total length of 196 kilometers, has the reputation of "the last clear stream in Japan". The river surface is as clear as a mirror. The Shimanto River contains as many as 48 sinking bridges. The biggest feature of the "sinking bridge" is that there are no guardrails on the bridge at all, and the width is about the width of a car passing through. Perhaps because there are no guardrails, when you stand on the bridge, you can directly feel the shock of being surrounded by the beautiful mountain scenery of Shimanto City. Don't hesitate, let's go with the cute and stylish bike!
