TOKYO, Feb. 13, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Tokyo Mountain Side DMC Launches Premium E-Bike Tours and Authentic "Sacred Mountain & Shukubo (Pilgrim Lodging) Experiences" for the Luxury Market.

Tokyo Mountain Side DMC Inc. (hereinafter "TMS DMC") announces the full-scale launch of its "Adventure Travel (AT)" programs for travel agents and MICE planners, integrating state-of-the-art E-Bikes with deep regional cultural resources.

Leveraging a strategic location just 60 minutes from Shinjuku, this area boasts the headwaters of the Tama River, sacred mountains with over a millennia of history, and a direct route to Mt. Fuji. We propose a new, compelling destination for the inbound luxury market, transforming Tokyo from a place to merely "pass through" into a place to "stay and deepen the experience."

1. Concept: Adventure Travel that Transforms Movement into a "Narrative"

Our products meet all the high-value criteria for Adventure Travel (AT), seamlessly integrating unique terrain, deep history, and gastronomy.

  • Unrivaled Accessibility: Inviting guests to "Deep Tokyo" within a mere 60-minute radius of the city center.
