About Tsukuba Kasumigaura Ring Ring Road

The Tsukuba Kasumigaura Ring Ring Road is a cycling course approximately 180 kilometers long, combining the former Tsukuba Railway line and a lakeside road that circles Lake Kasumigaura. This route allows cyclists to enjoy the rich natural beauty and landscapes of the Suigo-Tsukuba National Park, including Lake Kasumigaura and Mt Tsukuba, as well as historical and cultural landmarks such as Kashima Shrine.

In November 2019, the Tsukuba Kasumigaura Ring Ring Road was selected by Japan's Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport, and Tourism as one of the country's premier "National Cycle Routes," alongside the Biwaichi and Shimanami Kaido cycling roads, further increasing its popularity and recognition.
