A spring time filled with history and cherry blossoms – Sakura Tweed Ride 2025

The departure and arrival point is a historical symbol of Tsuchiura City「亀城公園 - Kijo Park」. This park is a part of the former Honmaru and Ninomaru of Tsuchiura Castle, and is the only surviving castle in Ibaraki Prefecture that was built in the Muromachi era. It is also known as one of the prefecture's most famous cherry blossom viewing spots, and the elegant Yoshino cherry trees that stand out against the castle are impressive, making it a cherry blossom viewing spot worthy of the name Sakura Ride. On the same day, we will be in Tsuchiura city centering around the park.土浦桜祭り2025 - Tsuchiura Sakura Festival 2025are also planned, adding excitement to the event.「Click here」to apply for the Sakura Tweed Ride

Challenge missions at cherry blossom viewing spots!

The ride that interests me is the orienteering style photo rally ride. There are two routes (ロングルート Long Route&ショートルート Short Route), take a photo of the given mission at each photo spot, and present it to the staff at the goal to receive a wonderful completion award. In addition, those who post on Instagram with the designated hashtag will be entered into a lottery to win a special gift from Tsuchiura City!

Sakura Tweed Ride is a mystery ride packed with excitement.Each rider should useRWGPSor GOOGLE MAP to head to each photo spot on their own. Whether you're nervous because you get lost, nervous because you don't understand the mission, or enjoy a mystery ride aiming for the completion prize.
