Daming Epic (from south). All the way from Wildhomestay, 25km to Daming and then onto Tunkou Hotsping. Then up from there all the way to the top – 32km uphill. Then 25km down to the noodle shop in Daming and 25km home. 165km total. Bit more elevation than the classic.

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
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!
Note: Its a monster and you need to leave very early and maybe bring lights.
Twin Peaks. 230 – 250km 4000m
A out and back. Get a car to longgang or bottom of x311. up and over two 900m climbs. Return. Taxi home.

The Lake 湖景线
58km 1080m hill climb.
A nice ride to add on way to / way back towards SH / HZ. Also a great extension for those that few extra KMs to the northern routes. Park your car just off the motorway and cycle from there.
