See how beautiful the town of Hagi is by exploring on e-bike!

Join us on our bicycle tour of Hagi! After passing through Hagi Castle Town, an area that is full of history and life, we’ll head to the top of a mountain for a panoramic view of the town.

As you cycle past the earthen walls from long ago, the summer oranges growing all around, the sunlight filtering through the trees in the forests, and the views of the sparkling sea, we’re sure you will fall in love with the beauty of Hagi City.

You won’t even break a sweat climbing mountains with our high performance e-bikes!
