Itinerary description

Tiger Leaping Gorge, one of China's most famous treks among foreign tourists. Note that I had some trouble with the GPS tracks and so have traced them by hand on Google Earth for this upload - it's not a major problem on this trail as the route is largely obvious, but pay attention to your path if you're attempting to follow the GPS track closely.
