Read moreDong Qian Lake in Ningbo is the largest freshwater lake in Zhejiang Province, China. located about 20km to the south east of Ningbo, a city of 7 million people, and 20 km from the East China Sea. In this 29km loop around the lake, cyclists first head along the west side of the lake and past the local golf course, before heading north away from the lake and into the hills. Riders then face a short, sharp climb past an old and now abandoned Buddhist temple, up to a mountain tea plantation. Riders then descend back to the lake and face a relatively flat and fast lakeside route back to the start.
