Ride through the heart of Japan’s countryside, where rice fields meet rugged peaks. Climb deep into the mountains toward a secluded hot spring village cradled in a volcanic caldera beneath a sacred mountain.
Discover the hidden treasures of Northern Japan—moss-covered waterfalls, cliffside temples, ancient stone statues, and more.
Catch a breathtaking sunset over the Sea of Japan, explore a traditional fishing village, and cruise a scenic 30km stretch of gently rolling countryside on your way to a historic samurai town in Akita.
