About Urad Grassland
For an introduction from Hailiutu, Delingshan Reservoir provides a specific managed destination where water meets the surrounding open country. Its dam and visitor shoreline show how the landscape also supports irrigation and fisheries. A reservoir-and-grassland outlook is a manageable first excursion; distant rock-art sites and old frontier settlements should be planned individually instead of added as casual nearby stops.
What to look for
- Delingshan Reservoir's open water within the Urad pastoral landscape.
- The reservoir dam and the contrast between managed water infrastructure and the surrounding grassland.

Getting to Urad Grassland
