Day 1 Shanghai → Anji → Zhangli Ancient Road → Shanghai

All day

Meet at the designated China-TravelNote location between 07:45 and 08:00 and sign in. Depart at 08:00 sharp, with interactive activities and itinerary briefings on board, ensuring a pleasant and enjoyable journey!

We arrived at the destination around 11:00. After warming up, the staff led everyone to officially start the hike; hiking Zhangli Ancient Road, high mountain villages, large stone houses, cascading waterfalls, small stone houses, water dripping through stone, Sister Waterfall, and bamboo forest stone path.

Arrive at the foot of Golden Mountain around 13:00 for a break and lunch. (Lunch is available at noodle shops and stalls, but you can also bring your own food.)

At 13:30, we took a short break after the meal and then continued on our journey. We were accompanied by mountain streams and clear springs along the way. Let me tell you secretly, the coffee shop at the foot of the mountain where water drips through rocks is so photogenic!

Be careful of the fork in the road when you reach the cafe! Then, continue along the rural road for a while and you'll reach the end.

Around 15:30, the bus waited here for a long time. After gathering, we got on the bus and returned to Shanghai.

At around 19:30, we returned to our departure point in Shanghai. Everyone was reluctant to leave and kissed goodbye with tears in their eyes.

Note: The route is relatively easy, so it is recommended to slow down, relax and enjoy the scenery, so that the trip will be worthwhile.

Driving time: about 3.5 hours

Hiking: Today's hike is about 8km long, with a cumulative ascent of about 400 meters.

1. What if it rains during the event?

2-3 days before the event, we will decide whether the event will proceed as scheduled based on the weather forecast and route conditions. Please pay attention to our notifications. Most activities can proceed as usual even if there is light rain. There is still fun to be had on rainy days. If heavy rain is forecast, the event will be cancelled and a full refund will be given to everyone.

2. Is this route crowded?

Most of our routes are natural and niche, with relatively small traffic. Of course, it also depends on the registration situation for each period. Generally, ordinary models are 37-seat buses, and a few large models are 53-seat. Each car has a certain proportion of tour leaders to ensure the quality of the event.

Located in Zhangcun Town, Anji County, the Zhangli Ancient Trail is a well-maintained 13-kilometer route offering beautiful scenery and charming views, complemented by the simple customs of the local people. The route passes through bamboo forests, residential houses, terraced fields, shrubs, small bamboo groves, and a Torreya grandis plantation. Standing on a mountaintop boulder offers a spectacular view of Anji's two major reservoirs, offering breathtaking panoramic views of the surrounding mountains.
