"Sunny Hiker" Hiking Club

The “Sunny Hiker” Hiking Club is a group of Guilinese who come together from time to time to plan their own hiking trips in Guilin and the surrounding area.

The hiking leader, Mr. Johnson Xu, cordially invited the “Guilin Expat” population to join in the hikes and see a part of their chosen home that they may not experience otherwise. In his own words:

“Guilin is very popular and easy hiking place .You can find many hiking lines including river, hill and plain etc. For our local hikers, we don’t like the hot scenic place now. These places are too much commercial operation, so we design the hiking line by ourselves and seek for original and healthy points. After this, we connect those points in map and begin our hiking .We can use the mini money to earn max natural happiness. Sometimes we just spent thirty yuan per one hiking line.”

If you want to be informed about the next hikes scheduled, please click here and sign up for our newsletter. We will send out the route and description in time for you to decide to participate.

For some first impressions see the photos below, or go to the Photo Gallery for a more extensive collection of pictures.

Sharon’s Saturday Party Photos

Here are the photos of last Saturdays Party in Sharon’s Restaurant. This time we were a pretty small group, which was not too surprising, as most of the teachers and students are on summer vacation. Nevertheless we still had a lot of fun.

Here are the photos (If you have any more photos to contribute please send them to service [at] guilinexpat.com):
