There are also very few cars here.

The cycling routes for today and tomorrow are mostly flat, with only gentle ups and downs, so Miyama is really a perfect place for cycling.


By the way, in Japan, many place names include the sound “Mi,” which often means “beautiful.”
For example:

  • Miyama = beautiful mountains
  • Mihama = beautiful beach
  • Misato = beautiful village

These names show how much Japanese people appreciate nature.

About the Author

Hello, I’m your local cycling guide in Miyama, Kyoto.

I run Peaceful Cycling Tour to share the quiet beauty of Miyama with visitors from around the world. This area is known for its thatched-roof houses, clear rivers, green mountains, and peaceful satoyama landscapes.

My tour is not about speed or distance. It is about enjoying the countryside slowly, meeting local scenery, and feeling the calm rhythm of rural Japan.

I look forward to cycling with you in Miyama.
