Cycling ????♂️ The Shimanami Kaido Japan ????????
The Shimanami Kaido (しまなみ海道, Shimanami Kaidō) is a 60-kilometer long toll road that connects Japan's ???????? main island of Honshu to the island of Shikoku, passing over six small islands in the Seto Inland Sea. It is also known as the Nishiseto Expressway. There are two other land connections between Shikoku and Honshu, but the Shimanami Kaido is the only one traversable by foot or bicycle ????♂️.
The Shimanami Kaido begins on Honshu in Onomichi City. It then leads across the six islands of Mukaishima, Innoshima, Ikuchijima, Omishima, Hakatajima and Oshima, before terminating on Shikoku in Imabari City. The route was opened in 1999, so the bridges are modern and attractive. Along the way, travelers can enjoy the beautiful scenery of the Seto Inland Sea and the islands' small towns.
The Shimanami Kaido: The best bicycle route in Japan しまなみ海道
Subscribe to my channel here. Thank you so much for a thumb-up!
Behind the scenes:
The Shimanami Kaido is 70-kilometer-long bicycle route that stretches from the city of Onomichi on the main island of Honshu to Imabari on Shikoku. It crosses several bridges and islands, offering a different side of Japan. All the bridges have designated bicycle lanes. In my opinion, this is the best bicycle route in Japan. We did this travel adventure in May 2018 within two days, spending the night in a ryokan on Omishima Island.
Technical infos:
I fixed a DJI Osmo+ (the DJI Osmo Pocket didn’t exist at the time) and a Crystal Sky display on the front of my bicycle. Additionally I used a DJI Mavic Pro drone for the aerial shots.
