Areas by City
Browse hiking areas across the cities we cover — each area includes trail guides, transport tips, and seasonal notes for international visitors.
Baoshan 宝山
Shanghai's north-bank suburb with one flagship outdoor space: Gucun Park's 430-hectare cherry-blossom park — the city's largest sakura collection, reported 14,000+ trees of 110+ varieties, wrapped in a flat, gated, family-friendly ring loop that works all four seasons, reached by Metro Lines 7 and 15.
Changxing Island 长兴岛
Shanghai's shipbuilding island in the Yangtze estuary, ringed by sea-dike, citrus orchards and a metasequoia avenue — flat riding from a 7.5 km family loop to a 55 km circuit of the whole island, with a ferry hop across to car-light Hengsha, reached by the G40 tunnel-and-bridge, the 申崇四线 bus or the Wusong ferry.
Chongming Island 崇明
Shanghai's rural island escape — flat, reclaimed and built for two wheels, and tidal wetland boardwalks at Xisha, metasequoia forests at Dongping, country-lane rides through villages and citrus orchards, and a lake-loop finale at Mingzhu, reached by tunnel, bridge or ferry.
Fengjing 枫泾
The quietest, most countrified of Shanghai's water towns — Fengjing's covered corridors, three bridges and art concentration (cartoons, painters' houses, farmer painting) at the Jinshan–Zhejiang border, reached by the 枫梅线 bus or the 金山北站 high-speed rail.
Gaoqiao 高桥
Pudong's northern-tip district where the Yangtze, the Huangpu and the sea meet: anchored by Binjiang Forest Park's 300-hectare forest loop — former nursery grounds with azalea gardens, a wetland boardwalk and the three-waters confluence bluff — plus the historical Sanchagang ferry point, reached by Line 6 and the 外高桥1路 bus.
Hengfu 衡复
Shanghai's historical conservation quarter — the plane-tree streets of the former French Concession: the Wukang Road heritage triangle anchored by the 1924 Wukang Building 'ship', and the Hengshan Road grand avenue south to the Community Church, the jazz-era villas and the Xujiahui Source. Flat, free, metro-served citywalks through a century of architecture.
Hongkou 虹口
Shanghai's cultural north: the literary quarter of Lu Xun and the left-wing circle — Duolun Road's 'first street of Shanghai-style culture', the Shanyin Road conservation lane with the writer's former home, and Lu Xun Park with his grave — plus the North Bund riverside greenway along the Huangpu. Quieter and more lived-in than the plane-tree quarter, flat and metro-served.
Huamu 花木
Pudong's cultural three-piece — Shanghai Museum East's ancient-art galleries, the spiral-staircase Library East, and Paul Andreu's butterfly-orchid concert hall — gathered in the green Huamu quarter. Flat, indoor-first and metro-served, it is the museum-and-library counterpoint to Shanghai's river walks.
Huangpu 黄浦
Shanghai's historic core district: the Bund promenade and its 1920s-30s 'Exposition of World Architecture', the Nanjing Road retail mile, People's Square's cultural triangle, the Ming-era old city of Yuyuan Garden and the City God Temple, and the Huangpu riverside greenway — the city's first-visitor geography, flat and metro-served.
Jiading 嘉定
The garden-and-water-town tier of Shanghai's northwest: Nanxiang's classical Guyi Garden, its soup-dumpling old street, and the district seat's own old town — all on Metro Line 11.
Jing'an 静安
Shanghai's liveliest shopping quarter — the plane-tree triangle of 长乐路, 富民路 and 巨鹿路 between Changshu Road and Jing'an Temple: vintage shops, streetwear, cafés and the Hudec-designed Eros Garden villa of the Writers' Association, with the ancient temple as the closing anchor. Flat, free and metro-served — the contemporary-Shanghai counterpoint to the heritage walks.
Lingang 临港
Shanghai's East-Sea new city at Pudong's southern tip: the perfect man-made circle of Dishui Lake ringed by an 8 km free greenway with seven rainbow bridges and sculpture gardens, the Nanhuidui seawall's ~7 km shore walk, and the flagship Astronomy Museum — a lake-and-sea day reached directly by Line 16.
Minhang 闵行
Shanghai's nearest water town: Qibao Old Street's ~1 km canal-side bazaar of snacks, mini-museums, an 1867 Catholic church and a 2002 temple with a 47 m pagoda — flat, free and reachable by Metro Line 9.
Pudong Riverside 浦东滨江
Central Shanghai's green riverfront — Expo Culture Park's artificial Twin Hills, the Eleven-Arch Bridge, the Music Forest amphitheatre, and the Houtan riverside.
Qingpu Lakes & Water Towns 青浦
Shanghai's western lake country — Dianshan Lake, the city's largest freshwater lake, ringed by four routes from a family ride to a full 45 km loop, with the water towns of Zhujiajiao and Jinze, the 1987 Dream of the Red Chamber gardens, and Shanghai's oldest ginkgo.
Songjiang Hills 松江
Shanghai's only natural forest hills — Sheshan's East and West peaks, linked by a gentle traverse of bamboo boardwalks, heritage buildings, and hilltop views.
Suzhou Creek 苏州河
The flat, photogenic riverfront corridor through Shanghai's industrial and architectural history — from sculpture parks and warehouse galleries to the bridges and skyline at the creek's mouth.
Xinchang 新场
Pudong's living water town: a flat, free stroll along the canal-side old street of 新场大街 — residents and working shops, a century-old teahouse, a Ming stone archway and the reported film sets of Lust, Caution — the quiet counterpoint to Qibao and Zhujiajiao.
Xuhui Riverside 徐汇滨江
Shanghai's industrial rust belt turned living showcase — 8.4 km of flat, free, pet-friendly riverside promenade linking cement works, fuel tanks and coal wharves to some of the city's best museums.
Xujiahui 徐家汇
The Jesuit heritage heart of Shanghai and the cradle of Chinese cinema and Western-style painting: the 1906 neo-Gothic St Ignatius Cathedral, the 1872 observatory with an unbroken climate record, the 1847 Jesuit library, the Tushanwan orphanage art school, and the French-Concession arts villas of the Hengfu southern edge. Flat, museum-dense, metro-served citywalks.
Yangpu 杨浦
Shanghai's green north-east — Gongqing Forest Park's storybook woodland loops, riverfront greenways along the Huangpu, and the city's only forest-themed national park.
Yuyuan Road 愚园路
The Changning–Jing'an heritage street reported 'one of Shanghai's most beautiful roads' — 114 years old in 2026: a century of plane trees, Chinese-Western garden houses and lane houses, with the 1936 Yongquanfang new-style lane, the LVK-designed Yugu Cun, the 1932 Paramount ballroom and the readable-architecture plaque programme. A flat, free, metro-served one-way walk from Jiangsu Road to Jing'an Temple.
Fuyang 富阳
Fuyang is Hangzhou's south-western district on the 富春江, and its days divide three ways: the flat Ming-Qing lanes of Longmen, the steep 龙门山 trail to 杏梅尖, and the free valley walk at 黄公望隐居地, where the landscape behind 《富春山居图》 climbs 240 m to 小洞天. The 500路 stops 1.6 km below the gate, and the walk needs no ticket.
Gongshu Canal District 拱墅
Hangzhou's northern canal district, read as working water rather than scenery: the last urban reach of the Grand Canal, the granary and the mills that fed and clothed the city on its banks, and a walk that crosses three of the six World-Heritage sites the city registered. Flat, metro-bookended, and mostly free.
Jingshan 径山
A tea-and-bamboo township in western Yuhang, 35 km from the city, whose two walks could not be more different: a signposted provincial demonstration loop that starts at the zero marker of Zhejiang's long-distance network, and a stone pilgrim path up to the Zen temple that gave Japan its tea. Both begin in the same valley at Shuangxi, and both are governed by an early last bus.
Liangzhu 良渚
The archaeological landscape northwest of Hangzhou where a 5,000-year-old walled city was found: a flat, wetland heritage walk across the UNESCO-listed Ancient City, the separate Liangzhu Museum 3.6 km east, the Yaoshan altar-and-burial site, a 27 km discovery trail that threads the whole cluster together, and a hill above the reservoir at the west end of it that gives the only view over the plain.
Lingyin / North Peak 灵隐 / 北高峰
Temple grounds, forest climbs, and panoramic views from one of the highest points near West Lake.
Longjing / Tea Villages 龙井 / 茶村
The historic home of Longjing tea — terraced hillsides, shaded stream valleys, and village paths.
Longwu Tea Village 龙坞
Tea terraces, forest ridges, and a hidden reservoir loop. Longwu is one of Hangzhou's most scenic tea areas, well-connected by metro and bus.
Luniao & Baizhang 鸬鸟／百丈
Two townships sharing one ridge at the far western edge of Yuhang, about forty-five kilometres from Hangzhou's centre. 百丈 holds the valley, the hamlet this walk starts from and a cluster of village museums; 鸬鸟 holds the crest, the road-head platform and the pear orchards. One stone-step ancient path runs between them, and it is the reason to come.
Qiandao Lake (Chun'an) 千岛湖（淳安）
A reservoir the size of a small county, 200 km of ring greenway around it, and one short lakeside segment on the Pailing Peninsula that can honestly be walked. The numbers the county publishes count four different things, and the walk is one of them.
Qingshan Lake 青山湖
Qingshan Lake is the reservoir on Lin'an's eastern edge, built from 1958 to hold floodwater for 余杭 and the plain beyond. Its northern shore carries a greenway published at 42.195 km, a paid water forest planted by a state forest farm, and one walked line between two stations on Line 16. The dam is not a crossing.
Qingshan Village 青山村
A hill village in Yuhang's Huanghu township that rebuilt itself around two projects: a public-interest trust protecting the reservoir that supplies drinking water to this part of the district, and a design archive that moved into the village theatre and stayed. Walks start at the library and run out to the dam; the 10.6 km classic loop climbs the ridge of that 32 km section twice, and the Little Bull line stays in the corridor below it.
Taihu Valley (Zhinan Village) 太湖源（指南村）
Lin'an's 太湖源镇 sells two half-days: a paid gorge with one mapped greenway of 1,765 m, and a free terraced village at about 600 m whose colour window runs late October to mid November. Both sit inside a provincial forest park and outside the 天目山 reserve. A highway, not a path, joins them.
Tiaoxi 苕溪
A flat river corridor north-west of Hangzhou where three branches of the 苕溪 join and stop being hill streams, and where two thousand years of flooding have been answered by a right-bank dyke whose crest is now a greenway. The walking here is long, open and unshaded, and every distance the district publishes is about something else.
Tonglu 桐庐县
A county of river and hill country on the Fuchun, an hour from Hangzhou by high-speed rail, whose walkable core is a single creek valley: 芦茨溪, with three decorated heritage villages at 石舍, 茆坪 and 芦茨. The other sights are spread out and need a boat or a car, so Tonglu rewards one valley per day rather than a tour.
West Lake 西湖
The iconic heart of Hangzhou hiking — lakeside trails, hill climbs, and pagoda viewpoints.
West Tianmu (Great Tree Kingdom) 西天目（大树王景区）
This is the Lin'an township built around 天目山国家级自然保护区: 4,284 to 4,300 ha, set up in 1956, national in 1986, a UNESCO biosphere reserve in 1996, with 仙人顶 at 1,506 m. One walk on this site is drawn here, an 11.6 km recorded circuit that crosses a ticketed area with two gates and comes down a steeper branch. The pedestrian map offers this interior almost nothing, which is why the page depends on a GPS record.
Wushan / Southern Song 吴山・南宋
The ridge that runs through Hangzhou's old city, from 吴山 to 八卦田, with the Southern Song imperial city on its middle hill. Two walks use it, both metro-bookended and mostly under canopy: a short citywalk through 城隍阁 and 鼓楼, and a longer traverse over 凤凰山 and 玉皇山 to the emperor's ceremonial field.
Xianghu Lake (Xiaoshan) 湘湖（萧山）
A restored lake in Xiaoshan with a 15.4 km greenway system, a 7.6 km seven-colour loop around its Phase-3 basin, 108 bridges and a paid beach. The metro stops five kilometres short, and the loop is the one part a walker can use without a car, in a district with no other trail.
Xixi Wetland 西溪
Hangzhou's urban wetland, and the opposite of the city's hills: everything here is flat, paved or boarded, and reachable on foot from a metro platform. Four walks share the same free network of causeways and boardwalks; the paid inner wetland buys water, not distance.
Zhongtai Tea Hills 中泰
A township-street in the south-west corner of Yuhang whose hills are planted to tea rather than scrolled for scenery: 1.55 万亩 of terraces across 双联, 枫岭 and 泰峰, a rounded 260 m ridge you can drive to the top of, and a view north at Hangzhou's newest district rather than out at country. The walking here is low, paved and village-based, and the famous craft workshop sits on the wrong side of the street.
Baoshan 宝山
Shanghai's north-bank suburb with one flagship outdoor space: Gucun Park's 430-hectare cherry-blossom park — the city's largest sakura collection, reported 14,000+ trees of 110+ varieties, wrapped in a flat, gated, family-friendly ring loop that works all four seasons, reached by Metro Lines 7 and 15.
Changxing Island 长兴岛
Shanghai's shipbuilding island in the Yangtze estuary, ringed by sea-dike, citrus orchards and a metasequoia avenue — flat riding from a 7.5 km family loop to a 55 km circuit of the whole island, with a ferry hop across to car-light Hengsha, reached by the G40 tunnel-and-bridge, the 申崇四线 bus or the Wusong ferry.
Chongming Island 崇明
Shanghai's rural island escape — flat, reclaimed and built for two wheels, and tidal wetland boardwalks at Xisha, metasequoia forests at Dongping, country-lane rides through villages and citrus orchards, and a lake-loop finale at Mingzhu, reached by tunnel, bridge or ferry.
Fengjing 枫泾
The quietest, most countrified of Shanghai's water towns — Fengjing's covered corridors, three bridges and art concentration (cartoons, painters' houses, farmer painting) at the Jinshan–Zhejiang border, reached by the 枫梅线 bus or the 金山北站 high-speed rail.
Gaoqiao 高桥
Pudong's northern-tip district where the Yangtze, the Huangpu and the sea meet: anchored by Binjiang Forest Park's 300-hectare forest loop — former nursery grounds with azalea gardens, a wetland boardwalk and the three-waters confluence bluff — plus the historical Sanchagang ferry point, reached by Line 6 and the 外高桥1路 bus.
Hengfu 衡复
Shanghai's historical conservation quarter — the plane-tree streets of the former French Concession: the Wukang Road heritage triangle anchored by the 1924 Wukang Building 'ship', and the Hengshan Road grand avenue south to the Community Church, the jazz-era villas and the Xujiahui Source. Flat, free, metro-served citywalks through a century of architecture.
Hongkou 虹口
Shanghai's cultural north: the literary quarter of Lu Xun and the left-wing circle — Duolun Road's 'first street of Shanghai-style culture', the Shanyin Road conservation lane with the writer's former home, and Lu Xun Park with his grave — plus the North Bund riverside greenway along the Huangpu. Quieter and more lived-in than the plane-tree quarter, flat and metro-served.
Huamu 花木
Pudong's cultural three-piece — Shanghai Museum East's ancient-art galleries, the spiral-staircase Library East, and Paul Andreu's butterfly-orchid concert hall — gathered in the green Huamu quarter. Flat, indoor-first and metro-served, it is the museum-and-library counterpoint to Shanghai's river walks.
Jing'an 静安
Shanghai's liveliest shopping quarter — the plane-tree triangle of 长乐路, 富民路 and 巨鹿路 between Changshu Road and Jing'an Temple: vintage shops, streetwear, cafés and the Hudec-designed Eros Garden villa of the Writers' Association, with the ancient temple as the closing anchor. Flat, free and metro-served — the contemporary-Shanghai counterpoint to the heritage walks.
Huangpu 黄浦
Shanghai's historic core district: the Bund promenade and its 1920s-30s 'Exposition of World Architecture', the Nanjing Road retail mile, People's Square's cultural triangle, the Ming-era old city of Yuyuan Garden and the City God Temple, and the Huangpu riverside greenway — the city's first-visitor geography, flat and metro-served.
Lingang 临港
Shanghai's East-Sea new city at Pudong's southern tip: the perfect man-made circle of Dishui Lake ringed by an 8 km free greenway with seven rainbow bridges and sculpture gardens, the Nanhuidui seawall's ~7 km shore walk, and the flagship Astronomy Museum — a lake-and-sea day reached directly by Line 16.
Jiading 嘉定
The garden-and-water-town tier of Shanghai's northwest: Nanxiang's classical Guyi Garden, its soup-dumpling old street, and the district seat's own old town — all on Metro Line 11.
Minhang 闵行
Shanghai's nearest water town: Qibao Old Street's ~1 km canal-side bazaar of snacks, mini-museums, an 1867 Catholic church and a 2002 temple with a 47 m pagoda — flat, free and reachable by Metro Line 9.
Pudong Riverside 浦东滨江
Central Shanghai's green riverfront — Expo Culture Park's artificial Twin Hills, the Eleven-Arch Bridge, the Music Forest amphitheatre, and the Houtan riverside.
Qingpu Lakes & Water Towns 青浦
Shanghai's western lake country — Dianshan Lake, the city's largest freshwater lake, ringed by four routes from a family ride to a full 45 km loop, with the water towns of Zhujiajiao and Jinze, the 1987 Dream of the Red Chamber gardens, and Shanghai's oldest ginkgo.
Songjiang Hills 松江
Shanghai's only natural forest hills — Sheshan's East and West peaks, linked by a gentle traverse of bamboo boardwalks, heritage buildings, and hilltop views.
Suzhou Creek 苏州河
The flat, photogenic riverfront corridor through Shanghai's industrial and architectural history — from sculpture parks and warehouse galleries to the bridges and skyline at the creek's mouth.
Xinchang 新场
Pudong's living water town: a flat, free stroll along the canal-side old street of 新场大街 — residents and working shops, a century-old teahouse, a Ming stone archway and the reported film sets of Lust, Caution — the quiet counterpoint to Qibao and Zhujiajiao.
Xuhui Riverside 徐汇滨江
Shanghai's industrial rust belt turned living showcase — 8.4 km of flat, free, pet-friendly riverside promenade linking cement works, fuel tanks and coal wharves to some of the city's best museums.
Xujiahui 徐家汇
The Jesuit heritage heart of Shanghai and the cradle of Chinese cinema and Western-style painting: the 1906 neo-Gothic St Ignatius Cathedral, the 1872 observatory with an unbroken climate record, the 1847 Jesuit library, the Tushanwan orphanage art school, and the French-Concession arts villas of the Hengfu southern edge. Flat, museum-dense, metro-served citywalks.
Yangpu 杨浦
Shanghai's green north-east — Gongqing Forest Park's storybook woodland loops, riverfront greenways along the Huangpu, and the city's only forest-themed national park.
Yuyuan Road 愚园路
The Changning–Jing'an heritage street reported 'one of Shanghai's most beautiful roads' — 114 years old in 2026: a century of plane trees, Chinese-Western garden houses and lane houses, with the 1936 Yongquanfang new-style lane, the LVK-designed Yugu Cun, the 1932 Paramount ballroom and the readable-architecture plaque programme. A flat, free, metro-served one-way walk from Jiangsu Road to Jing'an Temple.
Fuyang 富阳
Fuyang is Hangzhou's south-western district on the 富春江, and its days divide three ways: the flat Ming-Qing lanes of Longmen, the steep 龙门山 trail to 杏梅尖, and the free valley walk at 黄公望隐居地, where the landscape behind 《富春山居图》 climbs 240 m to 小洞天. The 500路 stops 1.6 km below the gate, and the walk needs no ticket.
Gongshu Canal District 拱墅
Hangzhou's northern canal district, read as working water rather than scenery: the last urban reach of the Grand Canal, the granary and the mills that fed and clothed the city on its banks, and a walk that crosses three of the six World-Heritage sites the city registered. Flat, metro-bookended, and mostly free.
Liangzhu 良渚
The archaeological landscape northwest of Hangzhou where a 5,000-year-old walled city was found: a flat, wetland heritage walk across the UNESCO-listed Ancient City, the separate Liangzhu Museum 3.6 km east, the Yaoshan altar-and-burial site, a 27 km discovery trail that threads the whole cluster together, and a hill above the reservoir at the west end of it that gives the only view over the plain.
Jingshan 径山
A tea-and-bamboo township in western Yuhang, 35 km from the city, whose two walks could not be more different: a signposted provincial demonstration loop that starts at the zero marker of Zhejiang's long-distance network, and a stone pilgrim path up to the Zen temple that gave Japan its tea. Both begin in the same valley at Shuangxi, and both are governed by an early last bus.
Lingyin / North Peak 灵隐 / 北高峰
Temple grounds, forest climbs, and panoramic views from one of the highest points near West Lake.
Longjing / Tea Villages 龙井 / 茶村
The historic home of Longjing tea — terraced hillsides, shaded stream valleys, and village paths.
Longwu Tea Village 龙坞
Tea terraces, forest ridges, and a hidden reservoir loop. Longwu is one of Hangzhou's most scenic tea areas, well-connected by metro and bus.
Luniao & Baizhang 鸬鸟／百丈
Two townships sharing one ridge at the far western edge of Yuhang, about forty-five kilometres from Hangzhou's centre. 百丈 holds the valley, the hamlet this walk starts from and a cluster of village museums; 鸬鸟 holds the crest, the road-head platform and the pear orchards. One stone-step ancient path runs between them, and it is the reason to come.
Qiandao Lake (Chun'an) 千岛湖（淳安）
A reservoir the size of a small county, 200 km of ring greenway around it, and one short lakeside segment on the Pailing Peninsula that can honestly be walked. The numbers the county publishes count four different things, and the walk is one of them.
Qingshan Village 青山村
A hill village in Yuhang's Huanghu township that rebuilt itself around two projects: a public-interest trust protecting the reservoir that supplies drinking water to this part of the district, and a design archive that moved into the village theatre and stayed.

Taihu Valley (Zhinan Village) 太湖源（指南村）
Lin'an's 太湖源镇 sells two half-days: a paid gorge with one mapped greenway of 1,765 m, and a free terraced village at about 600 m whose colour window runs late October to mid November. Both sit inside a provincial forest park and outside the 天目山 reserve. A highway, not a path, joins them.
Tiaoxi 苕溪
A flat river corridor north-west of Hangzhou where three branches of the 苕溪 join and stop being hill streams, and where two thousand years of flooding have been answered by a right-bank dyke whose crest is now a greenway. The walking here is long, open and unshaded, and every distance the district publishes is about something else.
Tonglu 桐庐县
A county of river and hill country on the Fuchun, an hour from Hangzhou by high-speed rail, whose walkable core is a single creek valley: 芦茨溪, with three decorated heritage villages at 石舍, 茆坪 and 芦茨. The other sights are spread out and need a boat or a car, so Tonglu rewards one valley per day rather than a tour.
West Lake 西湖
The iconic heart of Hangzhou hiking — lakeside trails, hill climbs, and pagoda viewpoints.
West Tianmu (Great Tree Kingdom) 西天目（大树王景区）
This is the Lin'an township built around 天目山国家级自然保护区: 4,284 to 4,300 ha, set up in 1956, national in 1986, a UNESCO biosphere reserve in 1996, with 仙人顶 at 1,506 m.

Xianghu Lake (Xiaoshan) 湘湖（萧山）
A restored lake in Xiaoshan with a 15.4 km greenway system, a 7.6 km seven-colour loop around its Phase-3 basin, 108 bridges and a paid beach. The metro stops five kilometres short, and the loop is the one part a walker can use without a car, in a district with no other trail.
Xixi Wetland 西溪
Hangzhou's urban wetland, and the opposite of the city's hills: everything here is flat, paved or boarded, and reachable on foot from a metro platform. Four walks share the same free network of causeways and boardwalks; the paid inner wetland buys water, not distance.
Zhongtai Tea Hills 中泰
A township-street in the south-west corner of Yuhang whose hills are planted to tea rather than scrolled for scenery: 1.55 万亩 of terraces across 双联, 枫岭 and 泰峰, a rounded 260 m ridge you can drive to the top of, and a view north at Hangzhou's newest district rather than out at country. The walking here is low, paved and village-based, and the famous craft workshop sits on the wrong side of the street.
