Iwaki-san, the soul of the Tsugaru people. The mountain is called Tsugaru Fuji because of its grandeur. Covered by apple fields, this farm road is called "Apple Road." When the white flowers bloom on over 40K apple trees, the lush scent of apple helps you lightly pedal. You use the "Cycle Train" of South Hirosaki Railroad Ohwani Line to get to the starting point. You can put your bikes inside the train, so it is very easy for cyclists to move around. In addition to their famous Onsens (hot springs), Moyashi (bean sprout), is getting popular in the past few years in Ohwani. We would love you to try the traditional meals of Moyashi, which are artificially raised using Onsens. Don’t forget to try and enjoy the superior taste of their apples!
