Hiking in Yangshuo

Hike from Yangdi to Xingping This one is a favorite with everyone who does it. The hike follows paths which are beside the Li River. This section of the river is regarded as the most spectacular one. This trip let you experience the Li River from a unique vantage point and enjoy the peace and dramatic mountain vistas. The trail winds through small local villages, rice fields, bamboo groves and along the shores of the meandering Li River. Travel Guide: If you get tired, you can always choose to take a motorized bamboo raft that will take you 3 km from Xingping. Please take some more water along with you especially in summer.

Hike to Moon Hill About 1km away, you can find Moon Hill Park on the right side of the big road. When you enter the big gate, you will see there are many stone steps leading you to the famous arch which is about 50 meters high and across, looks like a half moon. When you get there, please note this is NOT the very top, and there is one small path just behind the arch leading you to the very top. This is one good place for you to take photos and enjoy the views surrounded, meanwhile do some sports for your health. Travel Guide:There are some people always asking you to buy some photos and water on the way, you can just ignore that if you don’t mean to buy, they ask more price. This is one good place for people to do morning practices in Yangshuo. We recommend you to try if you can, it's free in the very early morning.

Hike along the Dragon River This trip is more interesting and suitable for more kinda people, including the old ones. Even Yulong River is not big, but the views along are breathtaking. Comparing with Li River, you can see more villages and rice fields during this trip, and the road is easier. The birds in the wild are easy to see. Trave Guide: Take some water and map, you can do it by yourself, no need tour guide.
