Grab a gravel or mountain bike and cycle up to around Xiaoxu village. A nice hard steady climb up from the main road to Xiaoxu village and then up the road there. Be careful on the way down!!! Some great views of Qingliangfeng but please dont go in the nature reserve buffer or core zone.
Easy up and down and return on the same road. Good training work out. Just do the first hill for easy good road option. Entire surface good. Be careful on downhills/cars on the wrong side of the road.
Wildhomestay provides a distinctive venue for corporate retreats, team building sessions, and group gatherings. Our programs are designed to deliver authentic and impactful experiences, encouraging personal and collective growth through real-world challenges. Unlike traditional five-star resorts, we focus on genuine engagement and development, aiming for meaningful outcomes that benefit both participants and the local community.
Mountains, hills, paths, streams, rivers, villages, agriculture and nature!
We offer a full hospitality solution supporting a fun, active and meaningful stay at the homestay. This includes accommodation, F&B, transportation and activity types. Programs and itineraries are custom-developed for each group based on their focus and needs.
For meetings and events, we have both our own rustic spaces and the use of the local village halls for group talks and events. Mostly, we encourage outdoor gatherings and meetings in the hills around the village.
Group meals are a perfect way to unwind after a hard day of activities and team building.

Rider Level: Intermediate / fit.
Interesting route taking in a lot of rural landscape unique to the area.
Enjoy the same experience as the Really Dirty ride, but on paved surfaces. 180km with plenty of ups and downs. This ride is easier but still challenging; suitable for mid-level riders and above. .
Mostly Quality Tarmac with a few short rough concrete sections.
Please be careful on the down hills. Cars will be coming in the other direction around blind corners. You will loose traction.下坡请减速并注意对面方向从盲角行驶过来的车辆,你有可能发生轮胎打滑的情况。
Go slow on the downhills!!! Time can be made up on the flats and uphills. 下坡时请务必注意安全,减速慢行!
It will be a long day. Drink and eat for an endurance event & wear sunscreen. 活动耗时较长,请随身携带必要及充足的水和食物及做好防晒保护措施。
If a serious injury in a remote area we might call on the group to provide support. 如果有骑手在偏远的区域发生比较严重的意外,我们可能会要求参加活动的其它骑手提供可能的救援支持。
