The rental fee for a regular bicycle is generally 200 yen per hour, while an electric bicycle is about 600 yen per hour, as the hilly terrain can be quite challenging. You can choose a suitable bicycle based on your ability. Car rental shops usually offer various maps and travel brochures, and some can store luggage for you, making it easy to travel light. You can also store luggage at the Shiki Information Center next to Biei Station.

This historic iron arch bridge in the city of Sapporo, Hokkaido, is still a bridge that carries the history of this place. The entire bridge gives people a very spectacular and beautiful feeling not only at that time, but also now.
