Hida-Asahi E-bike Tours
About Hida-Asahi
The town of Hida-Asahi has a long history spanning back hundreds of years to even before the foundation of modern Japan. Historically, it has been extensively used as part of the passage that connected the city of Takayama with areas to the east through the mountains. Because of this, you will find many shrines in Asahi that once served as places of respite for those travelling the tiring journey on foot.
Moreover, thanks to the natural bounty of the forests that surround Asahi, this place has long been home to many craftspeople and carpenters who utilize the trees and lumber of the region.
While the way people travel and live has changed, the welcoming hospitality of those people who call Hida-Asahi home has not. We at the Hida-Asahi E-bike tour sincerely hope that you can escape the bustle of the urban cities and experience a leisurely bike ride in this rural corner of the countryside we call home.
