As the distance you pedal increases, you should be able to enjoy a variety of scenery and dynamic views for each season.
One of the 100 best roads in Japan. It is the most famous spot in the village as a spot where you can see Shirouma Sanzan beautifully. The harmony between the Shirouma mountain range and the clear stream seen from here is wonderful. There are also open-air baths and campsites nearby.

Suwa Shrine is enshrined as a local deity in this area. It is registered as a designated cultural property of the village. The shade of the trees is cool in the precincts, but the air has a solemn atmosphere. The big tree of cedar is eye-catching. It’s very good.

I am overwhelmed by Shirouma Sanzan, which cannot fit in the camera lens. The slope is tough, but the scenery is the best.

It is a group of 187 stone Buddha statues including Hayagriva Kannon and 100 bodies including Saigoku 33rd, Bando 33rd, and Chichibu 34th. A group of stone Buddhas are lined up so as to surround a square square opened in the forest, and a solemn air is flowing.

The Mikamachi tunnel is about 4km downhill from the Miasa area. The view of the Northern Alps seen from the tunnel exit is GOOD. Take pictures safely from the sidewalk.

Lake Kisaki lookout point, which is becoming more popular with cyclists. Red foliage, blue lake and sky, wide horizon. It’s hard to come across this kind of scenery. If you are lucky, you can see the paraglider taking off.

Prefectural road 325 that continues between the trees. A nice road where you can easily earn altitude with a gentle slope.

When you enter the forest area called “Wadano no Mori”, the scent of green and the cry of cicadas become stronger. Hotels and pensions are scattered throughout the forest, and except for the slopes, it resembles the atmosphere of Karuizawa.
