To get to some of the smaller places hiring a car is a very good or only option as public transport can be rare and not particularly convenient. For the cities the train service is the most convenient way to get around. The JR Kyushu Pass is well worth getting and can make travel relatively cheap.
Another option is hoping on a bike! With beautiful scenery, friendly locals and numerous onsens Oita is a great place to bike around. Every March there is the annual Oita Charity Bike Ride that tours around the Ken. Refer to www.oitajets.com for further details.
