The Jinpingshan Outdoor Hiking Trail is a hidden gem in the suburban area. The main route stretches 9.7 kilometers with gentle cumulative elevation gain and low difficulty, making it ideal for family leisure outings and beginner hikers. Linking 24 scenic spots including Taohua Stream Valley and Furong Lake, the trail passes by 13 ponds and more than ten orchards. The "mini Great Wall" on the mountain and ancient rock paintings form a delightful contrast. Spring brings peach blossoms blooming all over the valley; autumn paints the forest in rich hues. With abundant negative oxygen ions along the way, hikers can fully immerse themselves in the delicate beauty of the countryside while touching the traces of ancient Haizhou civilization, making it a top choice for short-distance hiking near the city.
