[Cycle around Lake Hamana] November is Hamaichi month! (Kosai City Edition)
Autumn is the season for food, reading, and sports!
It’s now a comfortable season to do anything.
A cycling event called “RIDE AROUND HAMANAKO 30 DAYS” will be held around Lake Hamana for the month of November! (This event has already ended.)
This time, we would like to introduce events and cycling spots in Kosai City, focusing on Hamaichi!
Sea Lake Report: Walk along the Okuhamana Nature Trail in search of spectacular views.
Lake Hamana may have a strong image of marine leisure, but not many people know that it is actually a place where you can enjoy hiking and trail running. To the west are the Kosai Mountain Range, and to the north are the mountains Jogamine and Tommakuyama, where hiking trails are available. It is also popular as a low-altitude hike that can be easily done on holidays.
This time, I used the Tenryu Hamanako Railway to walk the course from Hamanako Sakume Station to the summit of Jogamine and descend to Kiga Station, and I would like to share with you how it went.
