Live Your Best Lives
The night before yesterday, my social media was flooded with messages saying #95加充#. Those of you who didn't go to the gas station are feeling a bit sad about going on road trips these days. It's a beautiful spring day, and if you want to get out into nature, why not go cycling together?
Don't underestimate cycling; it's stress-relieving, healthy, and environmentally friendly, making it one of the most popular travel activities in recent years. Grab a few friends, hop on a bike, and experience the charm of spring as it returns to the earth, through mountains, rivers, lakes, and urban greenways.
We've thoughtfully found 17 routes perfect for spring cycling. Enjoy the beautiful scenery and the minimal crowds. No need to crowd! Get out there and enjoy the beautiful spring scenery!
Qiandao Lake, with its unique natural scenery, has become a "cycling paradise" for many cycling enthusiasts.
The scenery along the cycling road is beautiful, with red roses, verbena, cosmos... blooming along the way, and flowers accompanying you all the way.

The cycling route is about 150 kilometers long and is composed of the Qianfen Line and the Chunyang Line. It has both the Qianfen Line with infinite scenery and the Chunyang Line with its twists and turns along the lake and around the mountains. It is exciting and full of endless fun!
If you just want to experience cycling along the lake, head to Pailing Peninsula. This is the most beautiful cycling section of Qiandao Lake. Cycling along the lakeside greenway will take you across Jiangbu Bridge, which offers stunning views and is one of the most beautiful bridges in Qiandao Lake.
Cycling around Mogan Mountain in spring, you can ride about 40 kilometers in one day. You don’t have to rush, you can ride slowly.
Ride through the tea fields of Mogan Mountain, with fir trees standing on both sides of the road, and feel the beauty of every mountain road.
Pass through the famous Naked Valley, visit the hermit-like B&B owner here, put down your bike, enter the tea fields, and feel the mellow green.
In the afternoon, we will go to the Hekou Reservoir, which is rarely visited by people. I am afraid that 90% of the friends who come to Moganshan will miss this beautiful scenery.
After the ride, you can return to Moganshan Town and stroll freely in the Republican-style street to experience the unique romantic atmosphere of the Republic of China period.
March to May is the golden season for cycling. The Qingshan Lake Greenway is known as the "most beautiful greenway in Zhejiang". We will start a cycling trip here.

Xisha Wetland, located in Chongming Island National Geopark, is the only natural wetland in Shanghai with natural tidal phenomena and large areas of mudflat woodlands.
Not only is the scenery here beautiful, but it also breeds a variety of creatures in the wetlands, such as various migratory birds, sand crabs, etc. We can freely visit wild water birds and wetland scenery.
Pearl Lake, with its "natural lake and lush forest," adds to the vibrant atmosphere of the park. The surrounding water conservation forest, covering 2,500 mu (approximately 1,000 acres), is home to nearly 800,000 trees of over 50 species, including camphor trees and magnolias.
Walking along the Chongming coast, the embankment on the side is full of reeds, and there is also a popular lighthouse, which is a great place to take photos!
This super-large Metasequoia conservation forest in Shanghai is known as the "Water Forest". It covers an area of more than 60 acres and is known as the "Kanas in Shanghai"!
We headed to the beautiful Dianshan Lake and began our 50km cycling tour around the lake. The surroundings were tranquil and lush, making for a very pleasant ride.
We then arrived at the secluded ancient town of Jinze. Founded over 960 years ago during the Song Dynasty, this ancient area was once a water town, abundant in fish and rice, and its people were prosperous, hence the name "Jinze." Here, you'll experience the tranquility and ease of a small village.
Finally, we checked in on National Highway 318, which includes a section of the famous Sichuan-Tibet Highway and is a cycling pilgrimage route for many cyclists.

The island is covered with cedar trees, and there are beautiful sea views along the way. We will also pass by the first beach of the Yangtze River. The scenery along the way is endless, and it is a great place to take photos!
Hengsha Island is a place that people yearn for. Farmlands, orchards, and green bamboos surround the red-tiled and white-walled villages, and flocks of ducks are leisurely playing in the pond.
Walking along the roadside, wisps of smoke drifted out from the fish market in the distant water village, as if walking into an elegant ink painting.
