Excursion à vélo d’une journée de Kawasaki à Tokyo

Here’s a chilled cycling route perfect if you want to explore a bit beyond central Tokyo! Starting in Kawasaki—an energetic city just south of Tokyo, known for its big industrial vibes and Kawasaki Daishi Temple—you’ll cruise about 35 km into the heart of Tokyo itself. Most of the route sticks to quiet roads and cycleways (over 90%!), so you can enjoy the ride without too much traffic stress.

The route is mostly flat, with gentle ups and downs, topping out at only about 55 meters, so nothing too daunting. You’ll get a real mix of urban scenery: from Kawasaki’s riverside stretches and backstreets, through suburban neighborhoods, and gradually into Tokyo’s buzzing metropolis.

Almost half the ride is fully paved, making for an easy roll—just keep an eye out for any missing sections or construction where surfaces might change. End your ride right in Tokyo, where you can reward yourself with awesome food, green parks, or a wander around the city’s iconic sights. Perfect as a relaxed weekend adventure or run-commute into the city!
