It is a unique lake that boasts the third longest circumference in Japan and is the longest brackish water lake in Japan. It has a variety of beautiful changing scenery that you can enjoy as you watch the waves moving across the lake as you cycle past. There are many blessings of the rich brackish water such as the citrus fruits that grow in the warm weather. Come and enjoy a bicycle trip around the lake. The regular course is approximately 67km in length.
