Relive Your Childhood: Adult Summer Vacation - Tour de BON Takigawa Valley 2026

About this event

Tour de BON is a summer cycling event combining cycling with "dobon" (jumping into water to cool off). Following the 2025 event held in Yamagata City, Gifu Prefecture, the 2026 edition moves its stage to Takigawa Valley in Yamatsuri Town, Fukushima Prefecture. Participants will ride up the steep slopes along the valley from the downstream side. After reaching the top, they will relax and soothe their heated bodies with 100% buckwheat soba served at "Takigawa no Sato," along with a stream plunge (dobon) and chairing (relaxing in outdoor portable chairs) in the crystal-clear river. Guest appearance by Yumiyami, a popular YouTuber known as the "Queen of Dobon," will further hype up this adult summer vacation cycling event. Limited to the first 50 participants, this program is ideal for making summer memories.
