Following the coast into Fukushima, this stage passes the seaside Roadside Station Yotsukura and the little shrine-island of Benten-jima on the way to Tomioka. A local lunch of pōpō-yaki — grilled Pacific-saury patties — waits along the route.

About 800 km in all. Guided tours take trains on a few sections, so the riding distance is shorter; self-guided riders cover the full distance on the road.
