Good Road – Shorter South Climb
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.
The new standard south route. very nice. 3 main mid climbs and a few shorter ones.
QianNiuGang – Daming Mountain
25km from Wildhomestay to the bottom of Daming. A nice ride there to the base with a drink and noodle stand. The climb is great and described as the Chinese Baby Mont Ventoux.
Strava seems a bit wrong on this one – more like 3000m + however still tiring enough. Start West in Wildhomestay and cycle east stopping for lunch at the hot springs. Then head west saving Daming for the last climb and then back to Wildhomestay.

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:

Lots options here. Small nice climbs. Still checking out the area.
98km | 2 Climbs, 1 steep section | Good Road with a few gnarly sections downhill.
This route goes up Gaoshan, the first sharp climb, its optional and you can just stay on the good main road. After the longer climb it loops around the reservoir anti-clockwise and goes up Slate Hill, returning back.
