Luoxiao Shan
Mountains Mountain range in southeastern China
A mountain range in southeastern China, Luoxiao Shan offers forested ridges and streams; hikers visit for backcountry routes and rural scenery across provincial borders.
Luoxiao Shan (the Luoxiao Mountains) is a mountain range in southeastern China that extends along provincial borders in the region. It forms part of the complex upland terrain separating several river basins in central-southern China.
The range comprises multiple forested ridges and peaks and has been used historically for local agriculture, forestry and as transport corridors between valleys. It is not a single peak but a system of mountains with local variation in elevation and land use.
Over time the Luoxiao range has influenced settlement patterns and provincial boundaries in the area, and parts of the range contain rural towns and historical trails.
Geographically the mountains run across provincial boundaries in south-central China; the range sits inland from the eastern coast and contains mixed deciduous and evergreen vegetation typical of the region.
