Shanghai: Huzhou Taihu Lake Views & Paddling Day Trip

A relaxed private day from Shanghai to Huzhou: visit the serene Biyan Buddhist temple, enjoy panoramic Taihu Lake and wind-turbine ridge views, then paddle gently on the calm waters of Changtian Lake.
Discover the lake-and-mountain beauty of Huzhou on this comfortable private day trip from Shanghai. Your guide and private driver pick you up at your hotel and drive into the green hills near Taihu Lake, China's third-largest freshwater lake, for a day of scenery, heritage and gentle water fun.

You begin at Biyan Temple, a long-revered Buddhist site in the Changxing area, home to cliff carvings and centuries-old relics set in a tranquil mountain setting. From here you follow the scenic Biyan path at an easy pace toward a ridgeline lined with graceful wind turbines, where a viewpoint opens onto the vast, shimmering expanse of Taihu Lake, distant sails and rolling hills laid out before you. Bring a light packed snack to enjoy with the view.

In the afternoon you descend to the Changtian Lake waterfront, where you can try stand-up paddleboarding or kayaking on the calm water (life jackets provided) or simply wander the lakeside wetland. The atmosphere is unhurried and easygoing throughout.

Reframed for comfort and scenery rather than exertion, this private tour keeps the walking light and the day relaxed, with plenty of time for photos, fresh air and gentle paddling. A relaxed lunch is included and you return to Hangzhou in the early evening. Pet-friendly and fully private, it is perfect for travelers wanting authentic China lake country, panoramic views and a touch of water adventure without strain.
