Fujisawa rest station
There was a 40-kilometer railway connecting between Tsuchiura and Iwase stations in the old days. It is said that trains running against a background of Mt. Tsukuba were popular among the railway fans. However, the railway was abolished in 1987 unfortunately. The railway site has been now reused as a cycling path called Tsukuba Rin-Rin road. The road is now used for recreation healthfully. Of course, it is also used for daily life such as commuting and shopping.
By the way, I placed a cache at the Fujisawa rest station. There is a parking lot. You will enjoy cycling or hiking around here.

藤沢休憩所
かつて土浦駅と岩瀬駅を結ぶ全長40キロほどの筑波鉄道がありました。筑波山を背景に田園のなかを走る列車は人気があったそうです。しかし残念ながら1987年に廃止されました。そして廃線跡地は、つくばりんりんロードと呼ばれる県道501号桜川土浦自転車道線となりました。今では健康で快適なレクリエーションの場として、また通勤・通学・買い物などの日常生活に使われる自転車道となっています。
さて、このキャッシュは藤沢休憩所に設置しました。ここには無料駐車場があります。ここを起点にして、サイクリングや散歩を楽しむことができるかと思います。
