Danxia Mountain Pure Hiking Route: The Scenery Here is Absolutely Stunning

【Introduction】: Climbing Danxia Mountain is not difficult, but it is quite tiring for the legs. It takes about 30 minutes to reach the summit from the foot of the mountain, with beautiful scenery and rich cultural atmosphere along the way. 🛬【Itinerary】: On the first day, after arriving at the guesthouse, if you arrive around noon, check in first, have a light meal, and then go hiking. In the afternoon, you can visit Yangyuan Mountain's Jiutian Ladder to catch the Danxia sunset. In the evening, return to the guesthouse and ask the owner for recommendations on local restaurants, with options for all budgets. The second day is the highlight: Wake up early to see the sea of clouds, and if you're lucky, the sunrise. Walk along the secret path of Danxia. If possible, bring a pot of brewed tea, which the guesthouse owner will be happy to share. Enjoy the high mountains, cliffs, towering trees, mountain streams, and the sounds of nature as you walk. When you reach Jinshiyan Temple, sit in the pavilion and savor the tea. ⛺【Must-Visit Attractions】: The cliff carvings are a must-see, with huge carved characters exuding a strong historical and cultural atmosphere. The Dan Ladder Iron Chain is a must-climb, with almost vertical stairs offering a thrilling experience and a panoramic view of the Danxia peaks and water. 🍩【Must-Try Foods】: Authentic farmhouse dishes, free-range chicken, orchard chicken, specialty fish like Sanjiaofang, and sour bamboo shoot snail pot, all served at local family-run restaurants with authentic flavors. 🏨【Accommodation Guide】: Lingfeng Mountain Residence—highly recommended online with great reviews.
