Details

Discover the serenity of Erhai Lake in the most active and freeing way possible: by exploring the Erhai Ecological Corridor. This dedicated paved path stretches over 40 kilometers along the lake's western shore, offering a safe, car-free route with beautiful scenery throughout.

You can easily rent an electric scooter (recommended, given the distance) or a traditional bicycle. With a map in hand, set off at your own pace, stopping whenever you like to take in a viewpoint, step onto a quiet beach, or wander through a village that catches your eye.

The route offers a glimpse into local life and nature. You'll pass through traditional Bai villages with their signature whitewashed houses, spot fishermen working on the lake, and ride through restored wetlands where birds and native plants thrive.

It's the perfect blend of light exercise, spectacular photography, and peaceful immersion in Dali's cultural landscape—a refreshing and authentic way to connect with this famous natural treasure.
