Hunan’s First International Hiking Trail Opens

徒步旅行正受到越来越多人欢迎。22日，湖南(怀化)雪峰山徒步旅游开发建设现场推进会暨怀化市2019年冬季旅游主题营销活动，在溆浦县穿岩山景区举行，我省首条国际徒步旅游线路发布。

On November 22, the Hunan (Huaihua) Xuefeng Mountain Hiking Development and Construction Promotion Conference and the 2019 Huaihua Winter Tourism Marketing Activities were held at Chuanyan Mountain Scenic Area, Xupu County. Hunan’s first international hiking trail was opened.

雪峰山被称为湖南人的父亲山，是湖南沅、资两水的发源地，绵延700里，纵横“四市十县”。雪峰山是湖南山地旅游发展重点区域，自然景观组合度好，地形地貌反差大，历史与现代的穿越感强，具有率先开拓国际徒步旅游市场得天独厚的资源优势和区位条件。

Known as “Hunan’s father mountain”, Xuefeng Mountain is the birthplace of Hunan’s Yuanjiang and Zijiang rivers. It stretches for 350 km across four cities and ten counties vertically and horizontally. Xuefeng Mountain is a key to mountain tourism development in Hunan. It has beautiful natural scenery, complicated terrains, modern rural paths, and ancient trails. These unique resources and geographical location make it possible to expand into the international hiking tourism market.

今年以来，英国、美国知名徒步旅游专家团队遍行雪峰山区域深度探访和实地勘察，研发设计推出“屈原之旅”国际徒步旅游线路。该线路从雪峰山大花瑶景区游客中心出发，途经虎形山、山背、高铁站、九溪江、雁鹅界、枫香瑶寨、花园、思蒙，沿途不仅有散落在山间古村落，还有屈原写《楚辞》曾经走过的古道，以及红二方面军及贺龙将军扩红走过的茶马古道。该线路全程100多公里，由香港国际旅行社向世界各地进行推介发售。

Since the beginning of this year, hiking experts from the UK and the USA have conducted in-depth field visits around the Xuefeng Mountain area and designed an international hiking trail. The trail stretches from the Dahuayao Scenic Area Visitor Center through Huxing Mountain, Shanbei, High-speed Railway Station, Jiuxijiang, Yan’ejie, Fengxiang Yao Village, Huayuan, and Simeng. Along the trail, there are ancient villages, ancient roads that Qu Yuan, a poet of the Warring States Period (475 B.C.-221 B.C.), walked when writing his poetry anthology Chu Ci, and there are tea-horse ancient roads which were trod by the Second Front Red Army and General He Long. The 100-odd-km trail is promoted through a Hong Kong international travel agency.
