Guilin Mao'er Mountain Lazy Drift lets you win effortlessly this summer

Being unskilled but loving to play is not our fault; life isn’t always about rushing forward bravely. Guilin Mao'er Mountain Lazy Drift is more suitable for those with a laid-back nature to enjoy a happy summer, cool and refreshing. Put on your life jacket, wear your helmet, then add hip and knee protectors, and flop into the water to fully immerse yourself in the coolness of the jelly-like water at the source of the Lijiang River. The main idea is to go with the flow, calmly come ashore, and just relax and win. . 🚗 Drive yourself to Lijiangyuan Resort Hotel, or 🚌 take a bus from Guilin North Bus Station to Mao'er Mountain (get off at Lijiangyuan Resort Hotel). Start your lazy drift journey at Xingyun Lake across from the hotel. Here, there are no KPIs, no anxiety about competition, only the joy of "peaceful times, I’ll lie down first for peace." . 🌟 Mao'er Mountain Featured Activities: 1️⃣ Crystal-clear waters (pics 2-5), enjoy paddleboarding, creek tracing, and diving. Xingyun Lake and Jiliang Lake at Mao'er Mountain allow direct swimming and paddleboarding, and Longtan River is great for diving. 2️⃣ The Peak of South China (pics 7, 8), Mao'er Mountain is recognized as the first mountain in the Classic of Mountains and Seas and is the highest peak in South China at 2,142 meters. Whether sunrise, sunset, or sea of clouds rising, it’s all worth seeing here. 3️⃣ Forest Hiking (pics 6, 9-11), start from the welcoming pine at Laoshanjie and hike up the mountain, retracing the Red Army’s Long March on the ancient trail. Pass the sources of three rivers (Lijiang, Zijiang, Xunjiang), then enter the misty primeval forest and the wildman lake (Liji Lake), feeling like entering a wilderness full of the joy of exploring the unknown. 4️⃣ Bamboo Sea in the Mountains (pics 12, 13), start from the Lijiangyuan Grand Canyon (Zhaoyao Valley), stroll through bamboo forests, watch the bamboo sea sway, listen to mountain springs tinkling, observe mountain and sea mythical beasts, and admire mountain stream waterfalls. It’s perfect for wearing Hanfu here to check in and experience a unique bamboo forest wonderland. 5️⃣ Cute Pet Park (pic 14), the Lijiangyuan Resort Hotel’s own pet park is currently 🆓 open, featuring sika deer 🦌, ponies 🐎, peacocks 🦚, geese 🦢, and other adorable animals, great for family visits. 6️⃣ Educational Activities (pics 15, 16), the Mao'er Mountain Visitor Center’s education center has many rare animal and plant specimens, offering a thorough understanding of Mao'er Mountain’s structure and ecology. Rich Red Army historical materials also deepen visitors’ knowledge of the revolutionary pioneers’ great deeds. . 💡 Special Reminders: 1️⃣ For same-day round trips to Mao'er Mountain, self-driving is recommended, and since playtime is short, overnight stays are better. 2️⃣ If taking the bus, summer peak season transport is tight; if you have other plans, it’s best to arrange with the driver in advance. 3️⃣ Lazy drifting and all water activities highly depend on weather conditions, so check the weather before setting out. 4️⃣ If hiking, prepare rain gear and warm clothing; temperatures are low on the mountain, and the climate changes rapidly, so keep warm.
