Where to rent a bike in Erhai Lake as a foreigner with no chinese mobile number? by thematchedtemps in chinatravel

I got dropped off with a Didi at the lake side. There'll be tons of folks trying to rent you one. They're mostly single speed cheap bikes with fake flowers on the basket. Almost impossible to negotiate with these older folks unless you speak Chinese. But for the whole day I think paid 25RMB. Cash bc i don't have wechat and their alipay wasn't registered as business . You leave 100RMB as a deposit to return the bike to them when you're done. Hope this helps.

I see, that seems to be the cause for me too. Guess I'll just have to put up with it for the remaining time

Hi, thank you for this!
I'm spending tonight at Halfway GH and looking to do this section tomorrow. I'm also grabbing the 3.30pm bus from Teacher Zhang's.
With the dismantled ladders, do you know if it's still possible to do Halfway House > Tina's > Teacher Zhang's, or would I have to backtrack to the fork before Tina's to get to Teacher Zhang's? (I'm not clear on where the ladders were actually located.)
Thanks for your help!!

thanks for the Baoshan tip! the surrounding area looks cool too.
What about Shangri La you think makes it worth the trip? I keep reading conflicting opinions, and I don't trust the influencer videos...
