Erhai Lake, Dali

1-day cycling is roughly 130 Km, and quite flat. There are several possible routes ranging from 120 Km to 145 Km. You can either go counter clockwise, or first south to XiaGuan and then around the bottom of the lake.
2 – day cycling is for those of you that want to go all around the lake, but in a more relaxing way. You can do 80km on the first day and 50km on the second day.
