Cycling in nature

カーキキャップガイ

In my case, there were no other participants, and it was basically sports. The guide, Mr. Suzuki, adjusts the course and pace according to the participants. At each destination, I was able to enjoy adventurous elements, such as peering into a mystical pond, encountering a pheasant, and finding a deer skull.私の場合、他に参加者はなく基本的にスポーツでした。ガイドの鈴木さんは、参加者に合わせてコースやペースをアレンジしてくれます。
行く先々で、幻想的な池を覗き込んだり、キジに出くわしたり、鹿の頭蓋骨があったりと、冒険的な要素があって楽しむことができました。

I was taken to a place that is difficult to reach on foot. Not only our tour guide, Mr. Suzuki, but also the staff from the Hakone Visitor Center accompanied us and provided explanations about Hakone's nature, allowing us to learn a lot. There were steep slopes that felt tough on my usually lazy legs, and my backside was sore afterward, but I had a great time. Thank you very much.歩いて行くには大変な場所に連れていっていただくことができました。
ツアーガイドの鈴木さんだけではなく箱根のビジターセンターの方もついて箱根の自然について解説をしてくださるので学ぶことができます。
ふだんサボっている足にはきつく感じる上り坂もあり、終わったあとはおしりも痛いですが、楽しい時間を過ごすことができました。
ありがとうございました。

This time, with the whole family.

We participated as a family of six. We raced through the mountains on mountain bikes and thoroughly enjoyed the deep nature of Hakone under Mr. Kato's insightful commentary. Our youngest, who is in fifth grade and whom I was most worried about (though I wasn't really that worried), ended up leading the way, competing with his older brother and Mr. Suzuki, and had the most fun. The older sisters and mom also enjoyed themselves at their own pace. Next time, I would like to try a different course w… We participated as a family of six.

I experienced a cycling tour in Hakone.

ゆうゆう♪

I was treated very kindly. I was worried about whether I could keep up, but I was encouraged many times and was able to do my best. I often go to Hakone, but it was refreshing to experience places outside of the tourist spots, and I was especially happy about that. I would like to request this again next time, so I want to work hard on my daily training.とても親切にして頂きました。
ついていけるかどうか不安でしたが、何度も励まして頂いて頑張ることが出来ました。
箱根はよく行きますが、観光スポット以外の場所を体験できた事が新鮮で、何より嬉しかったです。
また次回もお願いしたいので、日々のトレーニングに励みたいと思っています。

Thank you for guiding us through the Hakone Forest Course the other day.

We took several short breaks to match the pace of the children, during which you kindly explained a lot about the nature of Hakone. Thank you for your kindness. Riding mountain bikes and traversing the forest trails was a refreshing experience for our family. Even a few days after the tour, the children are still happily talking about it.

こどものペースに合わせて小休憩を何度も取り、その間たくさん箱根の自然について解説していただきました。ご親切でありがとうございました。
マウンテンバイクに乗って、森の道を走るのは私たち家族にとって新鮮な体験でした。ツアーが終わったあと数日たってもまだこどもたちがツアーのことを楽しそうに話しています。

次回、箱根に行く機会があったら違うコースを走ってみたいと思います。
ありがとうございました。

Since it was a weekday, I was the only participant, but they kindly guided me and proceeded at my pace, making it a very comfortable tour experience. They took me to places that I wouldn't have seen otherwise, and it was truly a fulfilling tour. Thank you very much. The guide took a photo of me from behind at the end, but I forgot to have it transferred to my smartphone, which is a shame. There's no way to get in touch, right? (laughs)平日ということもあり、参加者が私一人でしたが、快く案内してくださり、私のペースに合わせて進めてくださったのでとても快適なツアー参加となりました。こういう機会でないと見られない所にも案内してくださり、本当に充実したツアーでした。ありがとうございました。ガイドの方が最後に後ろ姿の写真を撮ってくださったのですが、それをスマホに転送してもらうのを忘れたのが残念です。連絡取りようがないですよね？（笑）

I was worried about the weather, but it turned out to be pleasantly sunny, perfect for cycling.

I rode through places that only locals would know, fully experiencing the charm of Hakone. There were also spots that could only be accessed by mountain bike, which was a lot of fun.

Next, I would like to join a course that visits power spots, so I look forward to it again.天気が心配でしたが、暑いぐらいの快晴で気持ち良くサイクリングできました‍♂️

地元の人にしかわからない場所を通り、箱根の魅力を存分に味合わさせていただきました
マウンテンバイクだからこそ通れる場所もあり楽しかったです

次はパワースポット巡りのコースに参加したいと思っておりますので、また宜しくお願い致します
