The Wushan Dragon Ridge hiking route is beautiful! Beautiful! Beautiful!

I happened to catch the red leaf season. Although I was almost crippled by the time I got down the mountain, it was still worth it. Starting point: 9:40 am Arrived at the highest point (Denglong Peak): 2:26 pm (approx. 4.5 hrs) Down the mountain to the ride-hailing or bus location: 4:35 pm (approx. 2 hrs) Record: length 16.1 km, climbing height 364 floors My friend and I are both weaklings who occasionally climb mountains. We basically managed to finish the hike, but the pressure on our knees was already very high by the time we got down the mountain. We had to be very careful and take it one step at a time, with no speed at all. I saw a lot of so-called "big loops" and "small loops" on Two Steps, but none of them were as good as the people on the scene. Hahaha, in the end, I didn't make it to the loop. I only planned to walk 10 km, but I was scared to death after 16 km. Wushan seems to really value this route. There are various staff members along the way, and the directions are still very clear. 95% of the route does not require trekking poles, but there is a small section of the road that has not been repaired, and it should have rained a little before, so the muddy road is a little muddy and slippery. My friend slipped, and I was a little nervous. Trekking poles are also needed to help with the descent. The scenery is magnificent. It's not the beauty of the red leaves, but the beauty of the mountains, the red and green, and the majestic rivers. The beauty of the scenery is worth the effort.
