One Mountain, One Lake Self-Drive and Outdoor Route

Route overview

The One Mountain, One Lake self-drive and outdoor route, built around Shijiu Lake and Wuxiang Mountain, is one of the tourist routes planned by Lishui District, from the People's Government of Lishui District's reply to proposal No. 041 of the fourth session of the eleventh district CPPCC (1 December 2025).

The reply gives only the name of the route and what it is built around, with no start or finish, distance or intermediate points. This entry therefore leaves the route length and route points fields empty, filling them neither from that document nor by working them out from other material.

The mode is self-driving, that is the value self-driving for route mode. The basin is recorded as Shijiu Lake, because both features at the heart of the route belong to the Shijiu Lake basin: Shijiu Lake is itself one of the district's three catchments, and Wuxiang Mountain belongs to the Shijiu Lake basin. Recording the basin of the core features lets the list page filter by basin.

The two core features the route links have entries in this library:

• Shijiu Lake (ls:place:shijiu-lake): the boundary lake in southern Lishui, where the provincial wetland park and the provincial important wetland lie.
• Wuxiang Mountain (ls:place:wuxiang-shan): the linked massif in which the Wuxiang Mountain National Forest Park stands, its scenic area a national 3A tourist attraction.

Along the way

• Shijiu Lake: the boundary lake in southern Lishui District, its area given as 207.65 and 214.7 sq km and the part within Lishui as 90.4, 91.2 or 87.7 sq km; a provincial wetland park was approved here in November 2019, and the boundary markers and signs were sited and installed in 2020; swans winter here, and the district government's natural resources page records that the swans flying down from the north may reach ten thousand at most. See the Shijiu Lake entry in this library.
• Wuxiang Mountain: the linked massif in which the Wuxiang Mountain National Forest Park stands, approved as a national forest park by the National Forestry and Grassland Administration in January 2015; the scenic area was rated a national 3A tourist attraction in 2020 and, according to the district government website, has a total area of about 3 sq km with 95.6 per cent forest cover. See the Wuxiang Mountain entry in this library.
• The relation of hill and water: the Master Plan for the Wuxiang Mountain National Forest Park, Nanjing (2023–2035), records that the park's divide is V-shaped, with northern water leaving by the Yigan and Lishui rivers for the Qinhuai and southern water by the Xinqiao or Tianshengqiao river for Shijiu Lake. The terrain and water relations seen along the route follow that plan. See the Yigan River entry in this library.

This entry does not copy the text of those entries; it points out only that the route strings them together, and the figures, the competing versions and the open questions for each are as given in its own entry.

Practical information

• Mode: self-driving.
• Start and finish, distance, intermediate points and stopping places along the way: not given in the official reply, left empty here and not guessed at.
• Total number of routes: the reply says only that this is one of the planned tourist routes and gives neither the total number nor the names of the others, so this site does not assert how many the authorities have planned.
• Information date: road conditions, parking, tickets and opening times change from season to season, and this site does not fix figures. Before travelling, readers should go to the official notices of the Lishui District culture and tourism department, the local townships and the bodies managing each scenic area and forest park. This entry was checked to September 2026.
