Cycle through a tapestry of glistening rice paddies framed by the Satoyama landscapes of Tochigi, and encounter the local artisans devoted to preserving the region’s time-honored crafts. You’ll discover that these traditions draw directly from nature—grasses, trees, soil—and transform them into beautifully simple tools designed for daily life in harmony with the natural world.
Our Satoyama & Craft Bike Tour Nasu–Mashiko offers more than a journey on two wheels; it is a profound cultural immersion, connecting you with the people, traditions, and landscapes that embody the soul of rural Japan.
Today, the final leg of our carefully curated 9-day cycling journey came to a close in Mashiko—leaving us with hearts full and a deeper appreciation for the quiet artistry of countryside life.
