Chengdu 2h | The Forgotten Hiking Secret! Hidden "Fairy Waterfall"|||

|||. I'm totally sold on this hiking secret spot around Chengdu It's a treasure trove, no less than Qingcheng Mountain! If it wasn't for a local friend who took me, I would have had no idea The cascading waterfall is truly spectacular Throughout the hike, you can feel the cool breeze generated by the falling water, so comfortable! I can't imagine how joyful it would be to hike here in the summer!!! · 🚗How to get there Navigation: Shenpu Gully Self-driving: It only takes about 2 hours to reach from downtown Chengdu Parking: There are parking lots at both the front and back mountain gates · 🔴Travel tips: 1️⃣Navigate to the front mountain gate of Shenpu Gully by car, park, and then hike up for 1-2 hours, surrounded by waterfalls and green trees, with fresh and pleasant air, where you can stop to take photos, check in, and rest while hiking 2️⃣After reaching Jiangjunping, there is a free azalea exhibition where you can take photos and check in, and the view from the top of the mountain is heart-shaped, very artistic 3️⃣Other attractions at Jiangjunping include a glass bridge, glass slide, and jungle crossing, which require a fee to experience, and you can choose to play according to personal preference 4️⃣Hiking up from Jiangjunping, you will pass through a wooden plank path and a small pine forest, and in ten minutes you can reach a red maple forest, which is very photogenic. Continuing upwards for about 5.6km, you will reach Tianyu Peak, where you can enjoy high mountain azaleas and a sea of clouds. Along the way, you can pick wild bamboo shoots. The hike takes about 5-6 hours, and it's important to note that the hike to the top to see the high mountain azaleas is quite long and tiring, so it's suitable for those who are physically fit and enjoy climbing. If you're not up for it, it's recommended to choose a leisurely route and return down the mountain 5️⃣During the hike, there are some moss and slippery paths, so it's advised to wear comfortable anti-slip shoes and bring a walking stick 6️⃣The path is shaded by green trees, and there is often a cool breeze, making it very refreshing 7️⃣There are food options at the entrance of the scenic area, which are not expensive, or you can bring your own meals. Hot water is provided for free, and it's recommended to carry some water and snacks to alleviate fatigue during the hike and maintain enough energy to continue · ‼️It is everyone's responsibility to protect the ecological environment. Please pack your trash during the hike and dispose of it in the designated bins at the bottom of the mountain
