Compared to the Yellow Mountain, I prefer this less crowded and beautiful niche spot!!!
Compared to the Yellow Mountain, I prefer this less crowded and beautiful niche spot!!!
This is probably the easiest mountain I have climbed in decades! The whole journey is facilitated by scenic shuttle buses, magic carpets, and cable cars, so you can enjoy the great rivers and mountains without climbing, and there are also many high-altitude experience projects, which are not monotonous at all.
Although it's not very close from Nanjing, you can see strange pines, dangerous peaks, sea of clouds, waterfalls here, and there are many entertainment projects to experience, really awesome!
Tour route:
① Main peak route: Take the scenic shuttle bus at the main entrance → Take the cable car → Then take the magic carpet (or choose to climb for 20 minutes) → Walk on the forest plank road (the rest is basically flat) → High-altitude sightseeing area (thrilling cliff plank road, Wanmu Terrace, Lovers' Pine, Wuchu Terrace, Glass Coffee House, Glass Plank Road, U-shaped Glass Lookout, Glass Bridge, High-altitude Zip Line, Cloud Top Hotel, Cliff Swing, Internet-famous Suspension Bridge, etc.) → Descend (the downhill path is stairs) → Downhill cable car → Glass water rafting (quite fun, and if you don't play, walking down is also very close, probably 15 minutes) → Take the scenic shuttle bus back to the entrance.
② Huluh River Grand Canyon hiking route: Reservoir dam entrance -- Small reservoir play area -- Waterfall belt -- The bottom of the canyon Rainbow Waterfall -- Return the same way. (Hiking about 2.5h, no car)
Recommended reasons:
Free parking, high altitude, temperature does not exceed 25°, it's a bit cold at the top of the mountain, be sure to bring a coat.
There are hotels on the mountain, and there are farmhouses at the entrance of the scenic area, the taste is acceptable and the price is affordable.
Scenic shuttle bus, magic carpet, and cable car make it possible to enjoy the scenery without climbing, it is recommended to buy a package ticket
The key point is that there really aren't many people, very suitable for a relaxing holiday
If you are as lucky as me, you can also see the sea of clouds on the mountain top, which is really super beautiful
