Dear Samantha,
Thanks for contacting Top China Travel!
Most of this tour are hking, but you need to be transferred by ferry for three time to get to the the opposite bank to continue the hiking.
Usually, we do not recommend tourists to hike for the whole way: Daxu–Caoping-Yangdi-Xingping-Yangshuo. Because from Daxu-Caoping-Yangdi, there is not much to see on the way. It would be kind of boring. And hiking for the whole way is about 50 km and would takes two days - It will need to camp at the bank of Li River for one night. The only hotel enroute is Foggy Resort at Caoping Town. It would be kind of tired for some people.
It is recommended to hiking from Yangdi-Xingping, which is only about 20 km and takes 5-6 hours. This part is home to essential landscape of Li River, and it takes less time to enjoy the most beautiful view along the river.
