Cycling in snow country with no need to bring your own equipment

A wide range of bicycles are available for rent to enjoy the GCR even if you do not have your own bicycle.
You can rent them at major stations like JR Echigo-Yuzawa Station and tourist information centres, allowing you to freely explore GCR's various routes.
While cycling, you will find numerous "cycle stations" offering thorough support for rest and emergencies, including the loan of bicycle pumps. Enjoy a cycling experience where you can fully take in the nature and culture of the Uonuma region empty-handed.
