Hop on a specialty mountain bike and glide along the rails of abandoned train tracks

By attaching mountain bikes to the tracks of what was once the Kamioka Railway, this area has become home to a brand new kind of attraction.

What makes these bikes special is less the bikes themselves, and more the metal frame (and their guided rollers) that they are fixed to. The back tire sits directly on the rail, and all you need to do to get through these 3-kilometer long courses is to keep peddling—there's no fear of losing your way or falling from the tracks.

All bikes are electric hybrids that use electricity to help push you along and there are attachable benches and child seats as well, making Gattan Go!! the perfect destination for groups of any kind, including couples and families.

The combination of the surrounding mountain scenery and the vibrations/sounds of the rails you ride along make this a fun and unique experience. Two courses, each with unique sights, ensure enough variation and fun to make you wanting more!
