We demonstrate an ultra-long cavity multi-wavelength Yb-doped fiber laser mode-locked by carbon nanotubes. The total length of the fiber laser is 1021.2 m. The different regimes of noise-like soliton and soliton rain mode-locking with the multi-wavelength operation are experimentally obtained with a repetition rate of 199.8 kHz. The higher output power and pulse energy from the soliton rain are measured to be 40.3 mW and 201.5 nJ, respectively, with a pulse width of about 102.5 ns.
