Summer Hiking | Take a walk in the mountains and fields around Beijing to find the old paths that have been forgotten

🧗‍♀️The ancient trail that I didn't finish last year, I have to cry and climb up. · ⛄️Having a time management master by your side is amazing, making what was originally a two-day journey rich, compact, and colorful. I have to go to the places that I should go, even if it hails; the rest is up to fate. ⛰️A few days before the trip started, I said: Please let me be a fool, thank you! You arrange the itinerary, I'm fine with anything! I've been to all the places before, so I'm retracing the old paths and finishing the ancient trails that I didn't complete. · ⛩The ancient trails west of Beijing now belong to the village's scenic area. Last year, various annual passes could be used for free entry, but this year you have to buy a ticket! 🎫Ticket: 27 RMB, can be reserved on-site 🕙Duration: 2H · 🌄The path is mostly stone roads, with some uphill sections. The scenic area is not large, and if you have good physical strength, you can reach the top of the mountain in less than an hour. The route passes through Niujiaoling Guancheng. · ⚠️Note: Once you reach the top of the mountain, please be sure to return the same way! Otherwise, you will detour to other villages, and it will be difficult to come back. Unlike us, we thought about taking a big loop, and then we got barbecued. If you climb at noon, it will not only be physically demanding but also quite hot. Along the way, you will pass several small pavilions, with the coolest spot at the 'bridgehead' leading to the wooden walkway. · 🏔There is a very beautiful wooden walkway at the top of the mountain, and you must not miss this section. The pavilion at the top of the mountain has a 360-degree breeze, clear and cloudy, surrounded and enveloped by mountains. ❌When you see the signpost, do not go down the mountain towards 🚫Jiuyuan Village🚫❌ · 📷Scenic spots: Glass walkway✔️ Mountain top viewing platform✔️ Mountain top pavilion with a view of the entire village✔️ Niujiaoling Guancheng✔️ · 📝Nearby places to play: 🏞Miaofeng Mountain 🛕Daitai Station (hiking) It's best to start 2 kilometers ahead from Daitai Station, you can walk to the railway and continue hiking. 🛤Jingmen Railway Crossing Several landmark buildings are nice, but be careful not to linger near the railway crossing 🏞Qingshuijian (one of the two remaining steam train water towers in Beijing) 🗾Qianjun Platform abandoned coal mine (exploration) 🈯️The ancient trails west of Beijing can be the second choice after the surrounding major attractions, no need to spend a lot of time, 1-2 hours is enough. · ☀️The small roads in the suburbs of Beijing are becoming more and more summery, surrounded by lush greenery, with sunlight lightly sprinkled on the car windows, shining with a bit of ripple, and the clouds in the distance, following me all the way. Playing music on the country roads, heading north. The destination is unknown, but it's best to keep going as far as possible.
