Itinerary description
A short scenic and hilly bicycle loop from Kaifaqu to the "Golden Pebble" beach resort. The central hill section challenged the lowest gear of a quality TREK mountain bicycle. The hill section was done from the east towards the west, and caution is required in case of rough pavement or other obstacles when descending at speed.
There is an alternate loop closer to the seashore that is a less strenuous climb.
