CHANGSHA, Dec. 26 (Xinhua) -- More than 2,000 people participated in a New Year hiking event at Zhangjiajie National Forest Park in central China's Hunan Province on Tuesday.
Hikers embarked from the Oxygen Bar Square in the national forest park, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. The professional category covered 3.8 kilometers, while the public group trekked a journey of 7.5 kilometers along lofty peaks and forests.
Apart from the hiking event, a variety of fitness activities, including Tai Chi, freestyle basketball, roller skating and freestyle football, drew in participants.
