This is a short, casual route where beginner level riders can enjoy. Set off from JR Hakuba station, ride along the national road for a while, and take the Matsukawa River Road from the end of the Matsukawa Bridge. Since there is not much traffic and the road is wide, it’s a cyclist-friendly road. Even though it is slightly uphill, you will be at the end of the road before you know it, as you take in the scenery of the Northern Japan Alps. Once you cross over the Hakuba Ohashi Bridge, you’ll arrive at the Nire Pond. This is a pond for fishing that anyone can try for a small fee. If you take the narrow road by the Nire Pond, you’ll enter the Onsen town of Happo, so enjoy strolling around the town. If you continue walking further from the hot spring town, you’ll arrive at the Hakuba Ski Jumping Stadium. It is highly recommended to drop by there as you can learn about the history of the Nagano Olympics and have a first-hand look at the jumping ramp. Then you may want to return to the center of the town and have a break while soaking your feet in the foot bath at Happo-no-yu onsen. Descend the road along Onaragawa River and you’ll come back to the goal of JR Hakuba station.
