They are in the order most people enjoy them.
| Months | What it is like |
|---|---|
| March – May | Cherry blossom at the castle in early April, and the best cycling weather of the year. |
| June – August | Wet in June. Hot for cycling in August — start at first light or ride in the evening. |
| September – November | The other good cycling season: clear, dry and cool over the water. |
| December – February | Mild for Japan. The bath house is at its best, and the bridges are empty. |
