🇯🇵 Cycling Rural Japan: From Katsuyama to Eiheiji Cho, Fukui | Aug 2024 A scenic cycling journey through the rural landscapes of Fukui Prefecture, starting at Sugiyama Bridge in Tochigadani, Muraoka Town, Katsuyama City, and ending at Naruka Bridge. This ride winds through serene countryside roads, where the vibrant greenery of mid-summer creates a refreshing and peaceful atmosphere. Midway through the ride, rain began to fall, offering a unique and authentic glimpse into the unpredictable weather of the Hokuriku region, even in the height of summer. 福井県勝山市村岡町栃神谷の杉山橋をスタートし、鳴鹿大橋までサイクリングする動画です。このルートでは、真夏の青々とした緑が広がる田園風景の中、静かで心地よい道を走ります。 途中で雨が降り始め、夏の最中でも見られる北陸特有の気まぐれな天候を体感しました。 Route Map: https://www.google.com/maps/d/u/1/edit?mid=19IvCD_V2rVI8SvOBk5P7xYPgHbpfGoE&usp=sharing Date: 16th Aug 2024 Weather: 34 / 32
