    If you want something longer combine with the botanical garden climb or south sanyang route or add it into a trip from Qiandaohu.

    If you want something shorter drive to start of Daming and do epic loop from there and drive back:

  • Big North – Sunset Peaks

    Big North – Sunset Peaks

    200km 3000m. The Double.

    Not to be underestimated. Leave early, and it’s best to bring a light if you’re not the fastest rider, along with a rain jacket!

    We normally go counter clockwise. x311 climb up, downhill through red rocks (noodle stop), climb up lake, fast down back to car. 🙂

    Another option is out and back but not including lake climb.

    Umbrella wha to x311, down other end, around. Add Lake for 200km 3000m.
