Lingyang Gorge Ancient Plank Road
羚羊峡古栈道
Lingyang Gorge, one of the Little Three Gorges of the West River. An ancient plank road along the water offers hiking with gorge and river views, and the Duan inkstone quarries are nearby.
Lingyang Gorge is where the West River cuts through Zhaoqing, with mountains rising on either side of the river. An ancient plank road runs along the north bank. It has been restored as a hiking trail several kilometers long, offering close views of the river and passing boats. It is best in the cool autumn and winter months. The Duanxi area, where the old Duan inkstone quarries are located, lies nearby. The trail is free, and the entrance is at the Lingyang Gorge Ancient Plank Road Park. Watch your step after rain, as the path becomes slippery, and bring your own water.
