The Ultimate Huangshan Hiking Guide

Cloud and Mist Wonderland! Walk 30,000 Steps on Huangshan to See the Stunning Sunrise🌄 🏔️ Why We Recommend It After visiting Huangshan, no other mountain compares! Every snap of the sea of clouds and unique pine trees is a masterpiece📸 🚌 Transportation Tips 📍Address: Tangkou Town, Huangshan District, Huangshan City, Anhui Province Shuttle buses go directly to the cable car station; buying a combo ticket is more cost-effective 1️⃣ Take the Yungu Cableway Up The cable car glides through the sea of clouds! Arrive before 8 AM to avoid crowds 📸Tips: Sit by the window to capture the breathtaking sea of clouds below 2️⃣ Shixin Peak → Black Tiger Pine Shixin Peak: The best spot to see the unique pines! Life miracles growing from granite cracks Black Tiger Pine: Over 800 years old, its branches coil like a fierce tiger 3️⃣ Watch the Sunset at Bright Summit Peak A 360° panoramic platform! Capture the sunset, sea of clouds, and strange rocks all in one shot 🌅Secret spot: The stairs on the west side of the weather station have the fewest people 4️⃣ Stay Overnight at Baiyun Hotel The only hotel on the summit with floor heating! A 10-minute walk in the morning to the sunrise viewing platform 5️⃣ West Sea Grand Canyon Walkways hang on sheer cliffs! Riding the popular mini train through the mist is super thrilling ⚠️Note: The valley bottom is 5℃ cooler than the summit, bring a windproof jacket 🍲 Specialty Foods Huangshan Stinky Mandarin Fish: Smells bad but tastes amazing! Garlic-flavored, perfect with rice Mao Tofu: Tofu with white mold! Crispy outside, tender inside, delicious dipped in spicy sauce Stone Cake: Pancake stuffed with preserved mustard greens, 5 RMB each at the foot of the mountain, very filling ❌ Pitfall Prevention Guide Don’t trust "guides"! Official signs are very clear Buy a thick raincoat! The summit weather changes suddenly Avoid staying on the summit on Saturdays! Prices double immediately
