5.0Jinzhong Reservoir(13 reviews) - If you like to ride bikes, this is a must do Dams
This is where you will find the GD Greenway, a China bicycle path network that covers all of southern China. There a -loads- of bike rental shops at the entrance. You can rent a very nice mountain or other style bike, including for the kids, for just a few $$$USD for a half a day. The ride around the reservoir takes 2-3 hours, has lots of stopping points and is good fun. The GD Greenway is relatively new and is gorgeous. The bike paths are asphalt and are new and well-marked and well-maintained, there are restrooms along the way and lots of things to see. The route can be a bit challenging as it's a bit hilly, but none of us had any problem with it. My only complaint is that we wanted to do a lot more riding but it only took a few hours to go around, and that included stopping, taking photos, etc. See more..
We hired a taxi to take us to the the road to the dam wall. The walk was easy as it is on a sloping road to the dam wall (30mins at a brisk pace). We then walked down the steps beside the dam wall to the hydro power station. The the flat road beside the river takes you to the starting point. Near the lovely fish restaurants We allowed an hour for the walk but better to be more leisurely.See more..
