Benxi｜Tangshigou - Dongdagang - Cihuagou

📍Benxi, Liaoning | Stream Trekking + Hiking
Tangshigou - Dongdagang - Cihuagou Loop | Total Distance: 15.77km
First half: Stream trekking | Second half: Mountain climbing
The stream section is super refreshing, but the steep mid-section climb is quite exhausting this season.
The descent isn’t difficult—just soft soil, so watch your footing.
After leveling out, you’ll encounter a flowing creek, followed by villages and roads before returning to the starting point.

No snakes spotted, moderate mosquitoes/insects.
But beware of a certain plant—its thorns sting terribly!
Recommended: Long sleeves & pants.
The stream section is extremely slippery—everyone falls, so tread carefully!
Pack spare shorts, water shoes/shoe covers, extra socks.
Hiking poles are essential, plus insect repellent and plenty of water.
This is the most beautiful trail I’ve hiked so far!
