Aso Cycling and Farming Private Tour

We start off the day by mounting our bikes before we set out from the wide open grasslands of Senomoto Kogen on top of the north rim of Aso's volcanic caldera.

We will cycle downhill through the varied landscape of Minamioguni town until we reach Gonbei Mura, an atmospheric bed & breakfast run by a lovely elderly couple. Here we will have a break and enjoy making lunch together with vegetables from their farm.

We continue cycling down through the small mountain villages. Along the way we stop by places such as Mangan-ji Onsen, one of the oldest settlements in the area where people live by utilising the local hot spring.

We will pass through Akababa, which is the center of Minamioguni town, as we head towards Shimojo Kinoko-En in Nakabaru area. This is a family run Shiitake mushroom farm where we will get a glimpse into the life of a young farmer.

Finally we will arrive at the town's farmers' market where the tour will end. Enjoy an ice cream, a coffee, or just a toilet break before heading towards your next adventure! Thank you for participating!
