“Flatland Loop” Route Details (Makuri Islands)
Introduced in Zwift’s May 2021 Yumezi launch, Flatland Loop contains a few more lumps and bumps than the name implies – in fact, it’s not even the flattest route on the Yumezi map (that distinction goes to Two Village Loop)! But it does manage to skip the KOMs.

Pro tip: this is the route used for the lap leaderboard on Yumezi, so give it a go if you want to grab orange!
This route breaks up nicely into 3 sections of roughly equal length: the flat start, the slight climb up through two villages, then the descent back to the start line.
We begin with a 5.5km flat warmup through the farmlands to the Country Sprint arch. Then the road begins to climb as you go through Village Onsen and the Fishing Village before turning right to head back toward the Castle area.
From here on out it’s either flat or descending all the way back to the start line.
