Recently I did the Shiminami cycling trip from Onomichi-shi all the way to Imabari-shi, Japan. This cycling path is 70 km going over 6 small islands and 7 stunningly constructed bridges. It offers both sweeping views of the Inland Sea as well as more intimate views of everyday life in smaller towns in Japan. The trek is moderate. I'm not a regular biker and did the ride round trip over the weekend; 140 km in all and I didn't find it too exhausting. Riders who rent bikes have the choice of riding round trip or one way. The path has lots of good places to stop and get ice cream or lunch (or both). I would absolutely do this again. It was a perfect way to spend a weekend!

The final and most impressive bridge of the trip at sunset

Spectacular views

The ascent to the final bridge. Don't let it scare you, it was gorgeous at the top

The local bike rental allows you to take the road like a pro

Enjoy loads of delicious citrus in the many towns you pass through on your way!
