Cover Hiroshima and Miyajima in one day by bike, boat and on foot!
Setting off from Cycle Hiroshima HQ, start with a guided cycle around the iconic Peace Park and A-bomb dome, where your guide will provide a commentary on the evocative and thought provoking surroundings. After a taste of Hiroshima’s feudal past at Hiroshima Castle, we will set off by train to board a ferry transfer to Miyajima Island (boat ticket included).
A beautiful contrast to Hiroshima city, Miyajima’s lush greenery provides the perfect backdrop to the island’s spectacular orange Shinto buildings. Once docked, we will take a walking tour of Miyajima, learning about how the island developed as a religious centre as well as exploring the numerous picture perfect lanes and photo opportunities.
The cycling section of our route is completely flat, and suitable for anyone who can ride a bike! In addition to our fleet of Trek brand bikes in a range of sizes, we also offer step-throughs and child-sized bikes to accommodate all riders.
