Kibi Plains cycling
The Kibi Plains offer one of our favourite cycling routes, taking you past farms, paddy fields, shrines and villages. The route is well established and easy to follow, so even those travelling independently should feel confident giving this day trip a try.
The Kibi Plains is a pretty area of farmland close to Kurashiki and Okayama. The best way to explore this region is to hire a bike and follow the 17km cycle path which weaves around sprawling fields, past farmhouses and a few shrines and temples.
Our Japan Unmasked Small Group Tour takes in this cycle ride.
