The Tsukuba Rinrin Road, also known as the Sakuragawa Tsuchiura Cycling Road, is a scenic path spanning Tsuchiura, Tsukuba, and Sakuragawa in Ibaraki Prefecture. Built on the former site of the Tsukuba Railway, this well-maintained cycling road offers a smooth and enjoyable experience for cyclists and walkers alike. The route stretches from the foot of Mount Tsukuba to Kasumigaura Lake, with sections passing through the charming old town of Makabe. Along the way, you'll find rest areas with facilities like toilets and benches, often located at former train station sites. The best time to visit is during the cherry blossom season for stunning views. Rent-a-cycle options are available at Tsuchiura Station, making it easy to explore this beautiful area.
