Go Downhill Mountain Biking in Gunma & Nagano
Japan has plenty of mountains, so it's only natural that it would also have downhill mountain biking. If you're looking to head out from Tokyo, two strong options can be found in Gunma and Nagano. You don't even need to have your own bike—just rent from one of the tours below! Half-day and full-day courses available.
