I am from Yabakei, located in Nakatsu City in the northwest of Oita Prefecture, recognized as one of the New Japan Three Views. Using the Maple Yaba Cycling Road, a bicycle-only path that runs along the Yamakuni River through deep valleys, we offer cycling tours that showcase the rural lifestyle of the valley's residents. You can experience nostalgic countryside living, including interacting with local people, participating in agricultural activities at farmers' homes, and enjoying tea breaks on the veranda. Let's embark on a cycling trip to witness the changing scenery of nature through the four seasons and glimpse the simple, everyday life of Yabakei.
