Hi, I’m Tabi!

Kodaira in Tokyo’s Tama area offers greenways and rural history. Begin at Central Park near Takanodai or one greenway segment near Hanakoganei, planning the different station areas separately.

This guide covers places within Kodaira, rather than places immediately beside your app check-in.

Try Takanodai station → Central Park’s marked paths. Check separate routes for Hanakoganei’s greenway and Furusato Mura. Keep cycling access clear and stay out of canals.

Check actual distances and travel times on the map. This suggested walk is separate from your app movement record.

  • Respect worship spaces and photography rules; check food ingredients at the shop.
