What to expect

This is a self-guided E-bike rental, so there is no fixed itinerary. You are free to create your own route and explore at your own pace. Before your ride, we can recommend routes based on your interests, riding experience, and how far you would like to ride.

Suggested places to explore:

• Katsuo-ji Temple — Ride into the mountains to one of Minoh’s most famous temples, known for its thousands of Daruma dolls.

• Minoh Falls — Explore the Minoh Falls area and enjoy the surrounding forest and local streets. Some sections near the falls are bicycle-restricted; we’ll explain where to park your bike and how to visit the falls before you start.

• Satsukiyama / Shubodai Viewpoint — Climb toward Satsukiyama and enjoy panoramic views across Osaka and Hyogo.

• Cup Noodles Museum Osaka Ikeda — Ride to nearby Ikeda and visit the birthplace of instant noodles.

• Local cafés & restaurants — Stop for Japanese food, coffee, burgers, and other local favorites along your route.

These are suggestions only. You can visit as many or as few places as you like and create your own day in North Osaka.

Prefer to ride with a local guide? Guided E-bike tours are also available for those who would like to explore Minoh with local knowledge and support along the way.
