  • To the Fire Lane 57km 1200

    To the Fire Lane 57km 1200

    60km 1200m. A big bike hike. Kind of crazy. Only for the serious adventurous!!!! Done in 2022 and now some of the hike is probably now off trail and up hill. Not easy carrying a bike. Someone should check this route in 2024 and see if the fire lane running onto of the mountains is rideable!. Hiked up it from the west side. East downhill is now overgrow but firelane remains. a long term project : Best to come up the hill from the West where the trail is more defined. Something to explore. PROBABLY BEST LEFT FOR RUNNING!

  • Rainbow Gorge Sky

    Rainbow Gorge Sky

    75km-120km, 1000-1600m. A very nice loop with a climb at the end! 98% good tarmac with a little rough stuff by the gorge. Just go slow there.


    Some other options on the Rainbow Road.
    1. An out and back to ShuizhuKun Village.
    2. Rainbow Gorge Return and
    3. Rainbow Loop.

    Rainbow Gorge Return


    Rainbow Loop

    A longer loop route. Can also add the gorge at the end of the rainbow road / north section if you want some extra KMs.

    The Beasts Of The East

    288km 5500m. To Qiandao Hu & Back. Still a work in progress. Need to think about the best way around for best morning and sunset light / views.

    A smaller option but still not easy.
