走りやすく案内も丁寧 ほぼ一般道では無いので安全でもあります。 霞ヶ浦のそばをずーっと走れるのでビワイチのルートより霞ヶ浦を満喫もできます 難点は補給できるところが少ないこと 自販機すらあまり見かけないので ボトルは2本持っていくといいかと思います あとはサイクルステーションをもう1箇所位設けると良いかなぁ。

(Translated by Google) ~ Aim for Mount Tsukuba! Rin Rin Cycling Road From Tsuchiura Station on the Joban Line to Iwase Station on the Mito Line, a 40km cycling road that uses the remains of the old Tsukuba Railway As I run from Tsuchiura, Mt. Tsukuba, which looked small in the distance, grows larger and larger. The sense of accomplishment of rowing to Mt. Tsukuba with my own foot is quite impressive. The course is well maintained and easy to run. There are some places that go out on the general road, but there are many maps, so basically you don't get lost on a single road. There is a break space every few kilometers that uses the station traces of the Tsukuba Railway era, so it is good to decide on breaks and turnbacks according to your physical strength. There is a light peak around the foot of Mt. Tsukuba, and there is a gentle downhill to Iwase Station. There are many attractions along the line, including the historical wall of Makabe and the remains of the Oda Castle Ruins. Cherry blossoms along the line are also a highlight during the spring season. Visit Date: Sunday, March 22, 2020 Weather: Sunny [☆ Evaluation criteria] ☆☆☆☆☆: It's hard to come across such a wonderful place.

Nice cycling road. Old train line now used as a cycling course. Great day trip out of Tokyo.

The round trip from Lake Kasumigaura (Tsuchiura) to Iwase is approximately 80km, but the route from Tsukuba Yamaguchi to Iwase is monotonous with no shops and is not very interesting. From Lake Kasumigaura to Tsukuba Yamaguchi, there is a recommended spot where you can see the cherry blossom tunnel and Mt. Tsukuba very beautifully. There are quite a few shops along the road, so you won't have any trouble finding lunch.

(Translated by Google) Tsuchiura ⇆ Lake Itako For "half-round" touring, the "north side" route is recommended. Although it does not change much on the north and south sides, ・ On the north side, you can make a shortcut for Kasumigaura Bridge according to your physical strength. ・ There are more straight lines than on the south side (the south side often detours to cross the river). ・ There are few anglers on the north side, and there are few cars coming and going. ・ There are spots to visit such as Kasumi Marche / Kasumi Kitchen, Namegata Tourist Product Center, and Rainbow Tower. Toilets are also available at these facilities (more toilets than on the south side). ・ There is "Aso Onsen" on the Tennozaki Park side, where you can take a day trip bath or take a break. About the cycling road along Kasumigaura ● Good points ・ The flat road continues. Cars also run, but it's basically safe. If the weather is nice, you can see Mt. Tsukuba (two peaks are lined up). You can enjoy flowers depending on the season. ・ It is suitable for road racers who want to speed up anyway. ● Caution ・ Unless you are an experienced road racer (a person who rides a road bike with thin tires), do not be confused by the voice and information that "I went around in ◯ hours". The speed varies greatly depending on the type of bicycle, physical strength, wind direction, and whether or not you plan to take a break in the first place. The situation is different for those who move at high speed on a road bike and those who run leisurely on a small-diameter folding bike, for example. Generally, a mamachari that runs in the city is about 15km / h. ・ When driving in a strong headwind, the speed will be considerably slower. Kasumigaura is unobstructed, so it is easily affected by the wind. If you can't get a lot of speed, be prepared to drop to 10km / h or less depending on the conditions. ・ Overall, there aren't many things to see, and the scenery is monotonous (though cycling on the lake is like that). I want to be careful about the seasons I visit. ・ There are few toilets. Wada Park on the south side, Kasumigaura Bridge on the north side, Tennozaki Park, etc. ・ I rarely see restaurants or vending machines. The convenience store on the cycling road is about the Seven-Eleven Inashiki Koto store on the south side. There is a convenience store if you step off the cycling road. ・ Cars and motorcycles are running normally. Not exclusively for bicycles. ・ Since trains do not run along the lake, it is not possible to travel or use trains in an emergency. Therefore, you should bring a minimum puncture repair kit. ・ Of course, it will be dark at night. I want to reach my destination while it is bright. Road racers are popular, but for beginners who want to do a little cycling, the impression is that they will not be able to join the ranks of the popular cycling roads unless they are equipped with a little more equipment. I understand that the tourism association is focusing on it, but I feel that it is still developing. I want you to do your best. (Original) 土浦⇆潮来の湖「半周」ツーリングならば「北側」のルートがおすすめ。 北側・南側で大きくは変わらないものの、 ・北側は体力に応じて霞ヶ浦大橋のショートカットができる。 ・南側よりは直線が多い（南側は川を渡るのに迂回することが多め）。 ・北側は釣り人が少なく、自動車の往来が少なめ。 ・道中、かすみマルシェ・かすみキッチン、行方観光物産館、虹の塔など、寄れるスポットがある。これらの施設ではトイレも利用できる（南側よりはトイレが多い）。 ・天王崎公園側に「あそう温泉」があり、日帰り入浴・休憩ができる。 霞ヶ浦沿いのサイクリングロードについて、 ●良いところ ・ずっと平坦な道が続く。自動車も走行するが、基本的には安全。天気が良ければ筑波山が見える（山頂が2つ並んでいるのがそれ）。季節によっては草花を楽しめる。 ・とにかくスピードを出したいロードレーサーには向いている。 ●注意点 ・経験者のロードレーサー（細いタイヤのロードバイクに乗る方）でない限り、一周を「◯時間で周った」という声、情報にまどわされないこと。速度は自転車の車種、体力、風向き、そもそも休憩を取る予定の有無により大きく変動する。ロードバイクで高速移動する人と、例えば小径の折りたたみ自転車でのんびり走る人では状況は異なる。一般的に街を走るママチャリは時速15km程度。 ・強い向かい風の中の走行では、かなり速度は遅くなる。霞ヶ浦は遮るものがないので、風の影響をもろに受ける。普段からぶいぶいスピードを出せない人は、条件次第では時速10km以下まで落ちることを覚悟すること。 ・全体的に見どころが多いわけではなく、景色は単調ではある（湖のサイクリングはそんなものだが）。訪れる季節には注意したい。 ・トイレは少ない。南側は和田公園、北側は霞ヶ浦大橋付近、天王崎公園など。 ・飲食店や自動販売機はほとんど見かけない。サイクリングロード上にあるコンビニは南側のセブンイレブン稲敷古渡店ぐらい。サイクリングロードを一歩外れればコンビニはある。 ・普通に自動車やバイクが走行している。自転車専用ではない。 ・湖に沿って電車は走っていないため、緊急時の輪行・電車利用ができない。よって、最低限のパンク修理キットなどは持参するべき。 ・当然、夜間は暗闇になる。明るいうちに目的地に着きたい。 ロードレーサーには人気は出るが、「ちょっくらサイクリングでも」という初心者へは、もう少し設備を充実させないと、大人気サイクリングロードの仲間入りはぢきない印象。観光協会が力を入れているのは分かるが発展途上な気もする。頑張ってほしい。

(Translated by Google) A cycling course using the old Tsukuba Railway, a course with a spectacular view where you can see various kinds of cherry blossoms in a section of about 40 km, a flat course with beautifully paved road surface, and guidance is well written. There is no hesitation, it is kind to beginners, and there is a rental cycle, so it is a popular course in Kanto. (Original) 旧筑波鉄道を利用したサイクリングコース、約40キロの区間に色々な種類の桜がみられる一度は訪れたい絶景のコース、平坦コースで路面も綺麗に舗装されており、案内もしっかり記載されており迷う事はない、初心者に優しく、レンタサイクルもあり関東でもの人気コース。

綺麗に整備された自転車専用道路、トイレや休憩所もあるので安心して走行できる。輪行して土浦駅へサイクリスト用に整備された駅なので気持ち良い、土浦から筑波山中腹までを往復。最高の一日でした。

霞ヶ浦を気持ち良く風に吹かれて走れるサイクリングロードです。 土浦から筑波山方面は廃線になってしまった筑波鉄道の後を舗装してサイクリングロードにしてあります。 春には桜が咲きお花見サイクリングが楽しめます。 所々にカメラスポットを紹介する看板があったり、筑波山を眺めて走れるのも気持ち良く楽しいです。

I ran a short course of 90km, and it was well maintained and very cheap to run. There is a guide so you can drive without getting lost, but I don't know if it depends on the local government, but there were some places that were hard to find and I got a little lost. Also, there is a public bath, so it might be a good idea to go there by car, take a bath after your run, and then drive home ✌️ However, I felt good running, so I would like to go running again.

Best Cycling Course in Japan. It’s more than 200km long with diverse view. This road is situated all the around the Lake Kasumigaura (2nd Biggest Lake in Japan) through Tsuchiura City, Tsukuba City and ends at Sakuragawa. Around Lake Kasumigaura you enjoy the view of the lake, comfortable cold breeze; from Tsuchiura to Sakura gawa it’s just a spectacular dell of Cherry. The whole course is almost flat. There’s some intersect from Tsuchiura to Kasumigaura. But other than that no other nuisance. Tsuchiura-Sakuragawa portion has some resting area facilities Toilet, resting bench, Cycling Pump, Free drinking water faucet. But I recommend to bring your own pump, food and drinks.

Welcome to Lake Kasumigaura! If you are planning to go around it, be prepared as the scenery will not change anyway. If you go in the summer, you will have the experience of walking through a lonely desert. Watarase Reservoir was also a pain, but this place is also average. Please note that the area is not always reserved for bicycles, and there are some areas where cars can pass. Of course, there are also pedestrians. And there are cats too.

(Translated by Google) It is a cycling road built on the site of the former Tsukuba Railway. I always use it when exercising. The former station is a resting place. It is a good resting place with a well-maintained toilet. Especially, Fujisawa and Makabe are beautiful. Next, Mushikake and Amabiki are good toilets. Tsukuba rest area is dirty. The ruins of Oda Castle are often closed. There is 40km from Iwase Station to Kasumigaura, and it will be 80km round trip. I challenged with a 20-inch folding bike. (Original) 旧筑波鉄道の線路跡地にできたサイクリングロードです。 いつも運動する時には利用します。 元駅が休憩所になっています。トイレが整備されていていい休憩所です。 特に、藤澤・真壁がキレイです。次に虫掛・雨引がそこそこいいトイレです。筑波休憩所は汚いです。小田城跡は閉まっていることが多いです。 岩瀬駅～霞ヶ浦まで４０ｋｍあって往復で８０ｋｍになります。 私は20型折り畳み自転車でチャレンジしました。

You need to be a little careful where it crosses the road from Tsuchiura to Mt. Tsukuba, but the road is pretty clean. It is very enjoyable during the cherry blossom season and the autumn leaves season.

This taken on April 2nd,2022. The cherry blossom is very beautiful nearby Kasumigaura Ring Ring Road.

終始なだらかなコース。広がる田園風景と筑波山の景色を楽しみながら走れます。所々にある休憩所(元々は駅)も便利です。岩瀬駅〜土浦駅40kmほど。

2022.10 4年ぶりぐらいに走りました。きれいに整備され すごく走りやすいです。 小雨が残念でしたが、雲に覆われた筑波山を眺めながら、 自転車でゆっくり巡り、たっぷりリフレッシュしました。 アップダウンがあまりなくて、単調との声もあると思いますが、 自分のように体重がある自転車乗りには、とっても楽しいサイクリングロードです。

(Translated by Google) There are cycling roads and promenades from the riverside to Kasumigaura. It's a beautiful and comfortable place. Vehicles can't go any further (Original) 川沿いから霞ヶ浦までサイクリングロードと遊歩道があります。きれいで気持ちのいい場所です。車輌はこれより先は行けません

(Translated by Google) Abandoned line of Tsukuba Railway + Around Kasumigaura and a super long course as a cycling course I am grateful that Chari only runs flat The total length of 180 km can not run smoothly, so if you think about various courses from rest areas and parks You can enjoy it as it is. I like the piston of the abandoned route because I get tired of it because it's the same scenery when I run along the lake in Kasumigaura. (Original) 筑波鉄道の廃線+霞ヶ浦一周とサイクリングコースとしては超ロングコース チャリは平坦のみしか走らない私にとってはありがたいコース 総延長１８０キロは流石に走れないので休憩所や公園から色々コースを考えて走ればそれなりに楽しめます。霞ヶ浦の湖畔を走ってると同じ風景なので飽きがきますから廃線ルートのピストンのが好きですね。

(Translated by Google) April 3, 2021 I came to cherry blossom viewing cycling. The cherry blossoms were falling because the time was a little late. I thought that the cherry blossoms would grow in 10 years and it would be a wonderful cycling road. (Original) 2021年4月3日　お花見サイクリングに来てみた。時期がちょおっと遅かったため桜は散りかけていた。あと10年たつと桜が育ち、更に素敵なサイクリングロードになると思った。

2023/12/17 Used as a base for cycling. The parking lot seems to be closed at night, but as of December 17, 2023, it was available from 5:30. The shower room can be used for 200 yen for 30 minutes. Great for quick sweating after cycling. Consumables were also sold in vending machines. (cleats, puncture repair kits, etc.) The cycling course has beautiful scenery and good road conditions, so you can enjoy cycling. However, it seems better to consider the wind direction and rotation direction (if necessary). The train departed and arrived near Tsuchiura Station and went counterclockwise. The northwest wind was very strong, and in the second half there was always a headwind, so it was hell.

Nice flat cycle route for beginners.

I rented a bicycle and went to the Mt. Tsukuba rest area. It was my first time riding a long distance, so I was a little nervous, but the roads were so clean and well-maintained that I had a great time cycling. There's something romantic about being able to cycle through places where there used to be railroad tracks. I would like to run again during the beautiful cherry blossom season.

(Translated by Google) Due to lack of research, I ran the course with the shortest toilet. Now let's run another course. You can feel birds, flowers, fields, and a lot of nature, but it's a pity that there were many roads for fishing. (Original) 調査不足で、トイレが一番足りないコースを走ってしまいました。こんどは、別のコースを走ろう。鳥、花、畑、たくさんの自然を感じることができますが、釣りのための路駐が多かったのが残念。

(Translated by Google) For those who come by car, it is convenient to start from Rinrin Port Tsuchiura. There aren't many convenience stores in sight from the road, so it's a good idea to bring at least hydration and supplements to avoid the hassle of searching. There are also the remains of the former Japanese army, footbaths, and roadside stations, so why not stop by after a break? (Original) 車で来る方は、りんりんポート土浦を出発地にすると便利です。 道から見える範囲にコンビニはあまり無いので、探す手間を避けるために、水分と補給食は最低限持っていくことをお勧めします。 旧日本軍の遺構や足湯、道の駅などもありますので、休憩がてら立ち寄られてみてはいかがでしょうか。
