Navigation: Zixia Mountain (free roadside parking) It is recommended that you do not drive into the mountain, as it is difficult to miss other cars and there will be congestion when going down the mountain! You can also navigate to "Tong'an Sub-district Office" Public transportation: Bus K7 Chenghuan Road Tong'an Road Station Tickets: Free FREE Recommended reason The entire hiking route is basically in the forest. Zixia Mountain is full of trails and stone roads. The environment is good. There are also many trash cans, seats, and rest pavilions on the road. It is suitable for the whole family, young and old, and couples. It is highly recommended. There are many pine forests along the way. I occasionally encountered little squirrels and little monkeys picking pine cones on the roadside. The experience was very enjoyable. Recommended hiking routes The whole loop is 6.5 kilometers long and takes 2 hours and 26 minutes. The kids are also very good. We hiked from the entrance of Zixia Mountain to the top of Jianjian Mountain. There is a steep staircase on the way down. Please pay attention to protect your knees when going down. There are many branches on the way down Zixia Mountain.

|Free hiking and flower viewing in the city. I want to find a place to exercise a little on the weekend 🚶🏻 Friends who don’t want to travel to the suburbs, look here! We found a great place for hiking. Right in Longquan ➕ Direct bus access ➕ Easy hiking ➕ Lots of flowers on the mountain A theme suitable for all ages - 📍Longquan Zixia Mountain 🎫Tickets 0 yuan 🚇 Public transportation: Take the subway to Longquanyi subway station and transfer to bus 850 or take K7 at Wuguiqiao bus station 🚗Self-driving: Navigate to Zixia Mountain and park on the roadside outside 🕥Play time: 2-3 hours - Tips 1⃣️There are cherry blossoms (in bloom) and peach blossoms (in bud) on the mountain, and there are rape flowers below. Friends who want to see the flowers can go without worry. 2⃣️The mountain is a semi-developed scenic area, so there are signboards and toilets. You can choose the route according to your physical strength. Those who are not physically fit can just walk along the mountainside and get some fresh air, which is very relaxing. 3⃣️It is said that there may be snakes in the mountains after the Waking of Insects, and mosquitoes in summer, so I still recommend friends to go there in spring and pay attention to safety. 4⃣️We went from left to right, entering the mountain from Maomaogou and heading to the mountain under the main mountain gate. 5⃣️This place is very close to Luodai Ancient Town, so you can go to Luodai for fun after climbing the mountain.
