18-day cycling tour of Hainan Island: biking Adventures Across the East, West, and Central Roads
The 18-day cycling itinerary was designed for two Austrian guests who have just completed their journey of 1080 KM. Over the course of 18 days, they explored the inner mountain areas as well as the east and west coastal lines of Hainan Island. Their adventure spanned beaches, tropical rainforests, quaint villages, and bustling towns.
They embarked on their journey independently, without a supporting car or cycling leader. Their recommendation was to have a support car for luggage and daily supplies, allowing them to ride road bikes since all the roads in Hainan are well-maintained.
Based on their feedback, we made slight modifications to the itinerary, particularly in areas where certain sections of the road lacked access to supplies.
We meticulously planned the routes and arranged accommodations for them, encompassing 517 biking hostels, budget hotels, and a serviced apartment for their last stop. This allowed them to experience the diverse landscapes of beaches, tropical rainforests, villages, and towns, while also connecting with local cyclists.
The outlined itinerary is designed for arrivals and departures in Sanya. Alternatively, we can organize tours that commence and conclude in Haikou, with a one-day break in Sanya. The journey will begin in Haikou, travel along the west coast to Sanya, include a day of leisure in Sanya, continue through the central mountain roads, and conclude back in Haikou.
