Hiking Strategy

The flowering season has arrived, and with the increasing number of tourists visiting the Guifeng Mountain Scenic Area, in order to alleviate the pressure of queuing up for the cableway and actively respond to the green and healthy travel philosophy, today, I recommend the best hiking and flower viewing route to everyone to enjoy the unique beauty of Guifeng Mountain.

Yunfeng Stone Path Line

This is a hiking route that accompanies the continuous climbing of cable cars. From the foot of the mountain to the top of the mountain, you can not only feel the refreshing bamboo sea and the blooming azaleas at the foot of the mountain, but also overlook the entire scenic area under the pine forest on the mountainside. After reaching the top of the mountain, you can stroll through the red azaleas that cover the mountains, and head to the top of Guifeng to overlook the sea of clouds.

Tour route:

After checking your ticket and entering the scenic area, take the Jingjiao Bus to the entrance of Yunfeng Stone Path up the mountain → Yunfeng Pavilion → enter the third ring road of the Rhododendron Flower Sea to start the flower sea tour → travel south to the Rhododendron Square → Guishou → Changshou Stone Path down the mountain → take the bus back to the waiting point at Guankou Ao.

Time spent:

The climbing time is about 1 hour

Flower Sea Tour for about 1 hour

Walking down the mountain for about 1 hour

The whole journey takes about 3 hours

Changshou Stone Diameter Line

This is a cultural landscape route of Guifeng Mountain, winding up from the pass at the foot of Guishou, passing through the green tea garden, and climbing up the stairs. You will experience the best viewing location of Guifeng Mountain, and witness the magical legends of Guifeng Mountain: Shoutai, Shengzijing, Xianren Foot, Welcome Pine, Wang'er Stone, "Anti Japanese War Resort" stone carvings

Finally, you reach the sea of rhododendrons at the top of the mountain, where these magical cultural landscapes and the ancient rhododendrons clustered on ten thousand acres allow you to fully appreciate the magic of Guifeng Mountain.
