Description

This Japan cycling tour links coast, volcanic terrain and Mount Fuji views across three demanding stages. Starting in Atami, the route follows the east coast of the Izu Peninsula to Shimoda, cuts along the rugged west coast to Numazu, then climbs into the Fuji Five Lakes area before finishing in Kofu. The ride passes onsen towns, fishing harbours, steep coastal roads, beaches, forest, lakes and wide views of Mount Fuji. It is not an easy coastal cruise: the days are long, the climbs are frequent, and the profile keeps changing. For riders looking for a compact bikepacking route in Japan, this tour has a clear line: Pacific coast, Izu Peninsula, Fuji, Yamanashi.
