🚴Must-visit city for Cyclists: Tsuchiura🗾

Exploring Tsuchiura by bicycle offers a perfect blend of nature, culture, and adventure in Ibaraki Prefecture. Using Hoshino Resorts BEB5 Tsuchiura as your base, you can enjoy the best of both the Tsukuba Kasumigaura Ring Ring Road's routes: one leading to Mount Tsukuba and the other circling Lake Kasumigaura.👍😀

I stayed at Hoshino Resorts BEB5 Tsuchiura and was captivated by its cyclist-friendly atmosphere. The hotel offers bike rentals and has a vibrant, casual vibe. The staff were incredibly helpful, giving me excellent tips for my cycling routes. 🚴‍♂️

Start with the Kasumigaura Route, which offers a leisurely ride around Japan's second-largest lake. The scenic path provides stunning water views and plenty of spots to relax and enjoy local delicacies. The tranquility of Lake Kasumigaura and the fresh breeze make this ride a delightful experience. 🌊

Next, take the Tsukuba Mountain Route, a more challenging ride through beautiful countryside leading to the base of Mount Tsukuba. Known for its twin peaks, Mount Tsukuba offers breathtaking views from the top. Whether you hike or take the cable car, the panoramic scenery is worth the effort. 🍁

Cycling in Tsuchiura is not just about the destinations but the journey itself. From the serene lake to the majestic mountain, every turn offers new discoveries. After a day of cycling, I enjoyed Tsuchiura’s specialty, eel, which was both delicious and rejuvenating. 🐟

Tsuchiura's blend of natural beauty and cultural richness, experienced through cycling, makes for an unforgettable adventure. I can't wait to return and explore these routes again. Happy cycling! ✈️🌟
