This cycling tour gently climbs along the Okitsu River and continues through hilly terrain with tea fields and bamboo forests to enjoy two tea farms. By moderately blocking the morning and evening fog and sunlight, visitors can experience Ryokouchi tea, which is rich in flavor and has a soft, fresh aroma. The Green Eight Café offers more than 30 varieties of tea, including the ever-popular "Japanese black tea" and "deep steamed tea," as well as "Asamushicha," a specialty tea. At Marujyo Murakami Farm, visitors can enjoy tea grown with homemade fertilizers, mainly organic and with minimal use of pesticides, in a tea garden in the mountains at an altitude of 300 to 350 meters overlooking Mt. Fuji.
