Crystal-clear river water, verdant peaks, pristine villages…renting a bike to cycle around is quite an “in” activity for all kinds of trips to Guilin for its payoff of getting fully immersed in the beautiful surroundings. There are quite some classic and scenic cycling routes at choice:
Yangshuo Town – Chaolong Village – Yulong Bridge – Yangshuo Town
This is a short-term bike tour along the Yulong River, start from Yangshuo County to Chaolong Village, then turn north-west along the river the Yulong Bridge and get back to Yangshuo.
