Rice Terraces & Boathouses Course (Ine)
This is a cycling course for beginners that takes about 2 hours to visit boathouses and terraced rice fields and runs along the beautiful coastline.
Nii's terraced rice fields change color with the seasons, and the geometrical steps against the backdrop of the sea are extremely beautiful spots.
The best season is from May to September. In May, the rice fields are filled with water, and in July, they become lush green, and in September, they turn yellow.
