Greenways in Shenzhen

There are many walking paths and greenways in Shenzhen. This will be a quick compilation guide of SOME of them. If you want more in depth details please click on the link

Luohu Greenway

A beautiful nature trail, this goes from Donghu park in Luohu and ends near Dawang Village towards Longgang area. Its easy to walk as its mostly flat with very little up and down. It has some nice views of the reservoir and is surrounded by trees either side. However limited shade from the sun.

The green-way is suitable for bikes and dogs (however dogs may NOT enter via the Donghu park)

Meilin Greenway

Meilin has many routes, some of which will go up to a 400m or so mountain. But it also has a lovely greenway. It’s wide and also has great views of the reservoir. It is a little up and down though with some incline. The path is wide and you can even ride a bike on it.

Yantian Coastal Greenway

A great option if you wanted an ocean walk. This stretches from one end of Yantian to the other via a long boardwalk. It goes past Xiaomeisha and Dameisha and has refreshing ocean views. One of my regular walks.

Binhai Avenue, near Wanghai Road, Nanshan District 南山区滨海大道(近望海路)

Yinhu Greenway

I previously wrote about this as a hike, but it’s also a long greenway. Around 12KM or so. It’s got lots of up and down sections but the road is wide and new. Not many places to buy water here. Some great nature views too.
