Advice On Backpacking In China

By Jonny Blair


When you are looking for an adventure that will allow you to explore, you should think about backpacking. You get the benefits of exercise while enjoying the natural beauty and breath-taking scenery on your daily travels. The Yunnan Province in China is a favorite destination for those individuals seeking the experience of a life-time.

At the planning stage, you can download free maps of the area and information on all the places you would like to visit. If you want the freedom to travel at your own pace, you can plan your route and decide on your own itinerary. If you prefer the tried and tested trip, you can choose from several proven itineraries.

Public transport around the region is available on a fairly limited timetable. The buses in places such as Luoping are available but do not appear to operate to a specific timetable. Tourists can usually find vans for hire, bikes and even horses to get around for when they get tired of walking.

Yunnan Province is home to many areas of natural beauty and history. Tourist traffic can be fairly heavy during certain times of the year and it is advisable to book accommodation and transport prior to starting your vacation. Options along many of the trekking routes provide clean, comfortable but basic accommodation. The majority of the guest houses and hotels do have email internet access for their guests to use. The local people can provide visitors with detailed information and directions to all the best places to visit.

As when visiting any country other than your own, the travel advice is to drink only bottled water. The local dishes are varied with a reputation for being excellent and well worth trying. Most guest houses and hotels serve food, but can also recommend the best places for eating in the local area.

Remember to pack sufficient supplies of any medications you may require during your trip. You can if necessary seek medical assistance and will probably find it is much cheaper than at home. However, if you do happen to run out of a particular medication, depending on your location you may not have access to what you need.

You can plan your route through a variety of different environments and terrains. It is important that you have the physical ability to trek through different terrains. You will get a lot more enjoyment out of this experience if you have the right equipment and have planned in adequate periods of rest.
