On the western shore of Dianchi Lake, the final event marking the close of the three-year Jiuhu League cycle and the 6th Xishan Hiking Festival have officially got underway. The 147-kilometer route around Dianchi Lake connects stunning lakeside and mountain scenery, while the hiking festival offers three routes—3 kilometers, 7 kilometers, and 18 kilometers—to suit family outings, recreational fitness, and more challenging outdoor adventures.
Along the Dianchi Greenway, the “Chasing the Wind and Moon” cycling event invites cycling enthusiasts and families to take part on specially designed moon-themed bicycles. At the same time, a series of trendy sports activities are bringing even more energy to the scene, including a 3-on-3 basketball challenge, a skateboarding and street-dance party, an open breaking competition, and the Golden Autumn Walking & Fitness Event. With activities ranging from high-energy competitions to leisurely outdoor pursuits, there is something for people of all ages and interests.
Against the backdrop of Dianchi’s natural beauty, Kunming is bringing sports and tourism closer together, creating a distinctive outdoor sports destination under the concept of “Exploring Yunnan Through Sport.” From running and cycling to hiking and walking, sports enthusiasts from China and around the world can take in Kunming’s autumn scenery and experience the charm of the “Spring City by the Lake, a City of Mountains, Water and Flowers.”
