From central Hangzhou, take Metro Line 1 to Longxiang Bridge Station, then transfer to Bus 7 or 318 directly to Longjing Village—approximately 40 minutes. For faster travel, use Didi Chuxing or Gaode Ride-hailing apps; the journey takes about 30 minutes and costs around ¥50.

Many scenic entrances offer free shuttle buses from major hotels and tourism centers, greatly improving accessibility. On-site parking is available with smart payment systems, but spots fill up quickly during holidays—reservations are advised.

For cyclists, rent an e-bike from local stations and ride along the West Lake Greenway through Meijia Wu. Enjoy scenic views and stop by local tea houses for traditional snacks, embracing the slow travel experience.

Beyond physical challenges, Longjing Gorge offers immersive cultural adventures. Must-try activities include bamboo climbing through natural groves, tea-field orienteering using maps and compasses to find hidden task points across terraced fields, and nighttime light exploration, where projection art brings ancient Longjing legends to life.

Join the Tea Farmer Immersion Day, learning traditional picking, pan-frying, and rolling techniques used in crafting China’s finest Longjing tea. Sample freshly made brews and visit the intangible heritage pottery workshop, where you craft your own handmade tea cup as a personalized souvenir.

These experiences blend nature, history, and creativity, transforming the adventure into a meaningful cultural journey beyond typical outdoor thrills.
