• Day 8: Kiso to Tajimi

    June 7, 2025 in Japan ⋅ ☁️ 27 °C

    Less adventure and more just covering the distance today.

    Aa I exited the #Kisovalley the river widened, turning a deep greenish blue, and the businesses by the side of the road got bigger as well.

    I mostly followed road 19 West but was briefly blocked when it turned into Expressway 19, a place where I could not (nor did I want to) ride a bicycle. And there were no clear alternatives on the map that didn't mean a big detour.

    Through a variety of stairs, bridges and small alleyways in the nearby towns I got back on a more direct route again and ended my day in #Tajimi.

    Tomorrow I will be riding through the satellite cities of #Nagoya with a small detour to #Circles. A special bike shop.
    After that I'll head over a small mountain again to go to #Hikone.
