December 1st, clear weather, hiked over 20 kilometers to explore Huangshan

📍 ·Huangshan🌍 Every step a scene, every moment a color 1800 meters, high mountains and long roads, crossing mountains and reflecting on oneself Hiked up and down the mountain, a total of over 20 kilometers, took 9 hours. Below is my one-day hiking route and time. The distance is not very precise, for reference only. 【⛳Route】Up from the back mountain, down from the front mountain. The back mountain ascent is relatively gentle. Unfortunately, the West Sea Grand Canyon and Bright Summit Peak are closed (winter maintenance). 【❣️Scenery】The scenery is beautiful everywhere, but Paiyun Pavilion (dangerous scenery), Flying-over Rock (beautiful scenery), and Bright Summit Peak (wide view) are especially good spots. So if you only plan a half-day trip, it is recommended to start from Ciguang Pavilion and hike to Paiyun Pavilion. 【⏱️Time】See the last picture for the route map 8:00 Depart from Yungu Temple, 9:50 Arrive at Bai'e Ridge, time spent 1 hour 50 minutes, uphill distance 6.5 km. 10:20 Arrive at Shixin Peak, time spent 30 minutes, distance 1 km 11:30 Arrive at Lion Peak, time spent 1 hour 10 minutes, distance 2.7 km 12:40 Arrive at Paiyun Pavilion, time spent 1 hour 10 minutes, distance 3 km 13:10 Arrive at Flying-over Rock, time spent 30 minutes, distance 1.7 km 13:30 Arrive at Bright Summit Peak, time spent 20 minutes, distance 1.5 km 15:30 Arrive at Welcoming Pine, time spent 2 hours, distance 4 km 16:00 Rest for half an hour, then descend 17:10 Arrive at Ciguang Pavilion, time spent 1 hour 10 minutes, distance 6.5 km Feel free to comment if you have any questions!
