May in Nasu Highlands is something truly special.

The paddies are freshly planted, their still water surfaces catching the light, while the forests around them fill out in every imaginable shade of green. For cyclists, it is one of the finest times of year to be on the road.

May is also one of our busiest months, and this year we had the pleasure of welcoming guests from countries around the world. Together we explored the countryside lanes, climbed into the mountains, and soaked in the hot springs that make Nasu unlike anywhere else.

If you are planning a trip to Japan next spring, our Foodie’s Bike Tour Nasu and Nikko and Nasu Slow Life E-bike Tour in May are not to be missed. We would love to ride with you.
