Tiger Leaping Gorge in Yunnan Province. China.  There is some debate about where the trail ends but I turned around at the point most hikers do and where the trail joins the road.  That is, I started at Jane's Guesthouse in Qiatou and turned around at Tina's Guesthouse, returning via the Same route.  :While the trail continues for a few more days. most hikers appear to turn around at Tina's.  That said, these trails are ancient trade routes and Start and Finish points seem no less Arbitrary than the ones that convention suggests.
