Walk in the clouds! Discover the stunning beauty of Chenzhou.

Chenzhou Shizikou is a hot topic on social media (cheat sheet) Chenzhou Shizikou is much cooler than the mountains in Guangdong! This time, we planned a two-day, one-night trip, so we took the reverse route and didn't even reach the top of the mountain to see the stunning sunrise! If you don't have enough time to complete the loop like us, you can save the following guide~ Guide 1. Self-driving **Navigation**: Search for "Shizikou" 2. High-speed rail: Arrive at Chenzhou West Station, then take a bus to Sankoudong, and then go to Caoshi Private Kitchen // or take a taxi directly after leaving the station. **Hiking route** (Reverse route) - **Total distance**: 8-9 km - Difficulty: Moderate, suitable for two-day, one-night heavy packers - Recommended method: Heavy pack hiking 2. Loop - Total distance: 16 km - Difficulty: Moderate, suitable for most people - Recommended method: Light pack hiking, bring water and snacks, take photos along the way **Camping & water source** - Most people camp at Swan Lake, but there are many cows there. If you don't want to be disturbed by cows, you can choose to camp on the open space by the creek (limited space). - The water source of Swan Lake is polluted. - Remember to filter or boil the creek water before use. Accommodation: There are accommodations and private kitchens outside the foot of the mountain. **Signal status** The signal on the mountain is average, but usable. There is a signal in open areas, so remember to download offline maps in advance! △**Special reminder** 1. Sunscreen is a must! Sunscreen, hats, and sunglasses are all necessary. 2. Bring a power bank. 3. Pay attention to weather changes during the rainy season, and bring a raincoat for extra safety. 4. Most of the roads in Shizikou are wild roads, and the wet ground will be slippery, so be sure to pay attention to anti-slip. Although we took the reverse route this time, we didn't reach the top of Shizikou due to time constraints, so we chose to find the highest mountain to the east to wait for the sunrise. (It only takes 20 minutes from the campsite to the sunrise viewing spot) The meaning of hiking may not be just to reach the top. During this trip, my friends and I saw the beautiful sunrise and sunset, and we played happily in our little world, which is enough for me! A super detailed guide has been prepared for you, so hurry up and invite your friends to go hiking together!
