Rocky hike 🪨🥾

#shenzhentrip As I'll always be wary of offbeat hiking trail 🏞️in foreign land just because of the unknowns of the terrain, while this time I decided to embark on one such unknown journey 🚶🏾‍♂️ Well I'd say it really did paid off, with my girl around, we got to see the whole bay area 🗾⚓ from a really nice viewing spot, at the top of the Wutong expedition. If you had followed my previous post about this mount, then you may know that this trail is quite a rocky 🪨 terrain but after you've reached the top there'll be neatly laid out steps; where I saw people go and wait until sunset 🌇 to see the city start glittering ✨ as the night 🌃 sets in. But since we were quite tired to do that, we decided to hike down the hill; which was quite rewarding too, as we got to see some jungle creatures along the way !! #tripblazers #urbanexplorer #ukcreator

Tower culmination

#shenzhentrip The best thing about visiting natural/famous places in China is that, all the places are well facilitated with basic needs 💧🥟🚻⛑️ so that even people who aren't in great fitness (like me😋) also can enjoy these experiences. On such occasion, as we were hiking 🥾 all the way up in the Wutong mountain ⛰️ on rough terrains we encountered the massive tomb shaped tower 🗼 (which is very likely a phone signal tower) and other refreshing facilities. They also have laid out a neat viewing platform to get to see the deep valley, from this hiking culmination point. Also I'd suggest to go in here during the spring season, around March, to get to see the blossoming 🌸 flowers all around the mountain. #tripblazers#urbanexplorer

Dance of Nature & Human Skyscrapers

#shenzhentrip Shenzhen is quite a mountainous region, which qualify it to be one of my favorites in China. Oftentimes in a few metres onto the main road 🛣️ you'll get to see the distant 🏔️ mountains with full green 💚 patches. So this time I decided to chase one of those mountains and hike to get the view of man-made skyscrapers 🏙️ from the natural skyscrapers ⛰️😜 Since I stayed in Luohu district in Shenzhen it's super convenient to just take a 20-min ride to reach Wutong mountain. You may start your hike in a neatly laid out cement road, but to get the amazing view you have to take a detour to a 🪨 rocky path, after some 2 kms. What's the fun in hiking in a cement road right ? 😉 #tripblazers #urbanexplorer #hiking

The most famous mountain in Shenzhen! ⛰️

Wutong mountain is a very large area, This is the highest peak in Shenzhen. There are two options big and small Wutong both of them are fine. Also if you want to find the best scenery to look at the whole of Shenzhen city this mountain gives exactly that. Beautiful nature and a great challenge to climb to the top because there are so many stairs that you need to pass. it takes time to climb over there for 2-3 hours with many short breaks because you need to save energy when you go down. The best time to check it when is cooler is during autumn/winter time because when is spring/summer can be so humid weather. This mountain is worth a visit, when you climb up you will see spectacular city views and relax in the fresh oxygen-rich mountain air. #shenzhen #wutongmountain #staycation #gooutside #hiking #travelinspiration #nationalpark #exploring

Hike the highest peak

Wutong mountain is the highest peak in the city, and as such is one of the most popular hiking destinations in Shenzhen. This mountain looms over much of the city and has challenged the casual and serious hiker alike. Wutong is has 2 main peaks, small Wutong and big Wutong, and they can be hiked separately or together. For the purposes of this article I will give the guide of hiking them both, and also focus on the ‘most common’ route. There are lots and lots of stairs on this hike, and since it goes up to 970M high, you will definatley be feeling your legs the next day. However a ‘wild’ route is also available which has less stairs and is more challenging. I would suggest the wild route for those who are more confident in their hiking ability, for the beginner or those with less experience the main stair route is probably the better choice. From bottom to the top of small Wutong will take around 90 mins, it is more or less a straight line, with multiple rest stops along the way. The views get progressively better as you go up, and when you get to the top you will be greeted by the iconic TV Tower. This is a jaw dropping landmark that simply must be seen up close at least once during your time in SZ. After you reach the top of Small Wutong, you can either go back down, or follow signs for ‘Big Wutong’. This is approximately another 90 mins or so from the top of small as it is longer not just higher. Along this route there are some pagodas which are a good place to rest and enjoy the view, and some ‘squares’ which have toilets and convenience stores. The peak of Big Wutong is marked by a marker stone, letting you know that you have conquered the summit. If you take the nature trail up it will take around 2 hours, it is a good trail with gradual incline. Stay on the paved road from the main small wutong entrance from the metro station. Walk for around 40 mins until you see this entrance. Follow it up to the peak of small wutong. #gooutside #passionpassport #urbanexplorer #solotravel #summervacation #shenzhen #china

Little Bogota in Wutongshan ❤️

So i went hiking yesterday at the Wutongshan National park (Sycamore hills). It is situated in the central south part of Shenzhen. Wutongshan (or Wutong mountain) is a rare natural scenic spot in China, which is located in urban area, and with a coastal spread of mountains and natural vegetations as its main scenery. Little bogota pavillion can be found tucked in on the foggy crossroads between Small Wutong and Great Wutong. Its on the right side of the road if you opted to go to Small Wutong. Challenging hike but worth it. Especially when you get to the Little Bogota. Climb up those ladders up and when you get to the top, try to meditate. That way you will find peace and solitude. Free entrance. And again, its foggy and mists all over it. Still try to take photos. ❤️ #travellater #wutongshan #wheninshenzhen #solofemaletraveller #hikingtrails #hiking

Climbing up Small Wutong ❤️

Hiking Wutong Mountain is one of the most popular activity here in Shenzhen. They say its a great way to get exercise and breathtaking vistas. It is located in Luohu district in Shenzhen. There are 3 main peaks, namely the Small Wutong, Bean curd head, and the Great Wutong. Great Wutong is the highest peak in Shenzhen with a 943.7 meters altitude (3,096ft) while Small Wutong is is 200 meters lower than the Great Wutong. For a first timer hiker like me, its a better option to try to climb first the Small Wutong. Dont get twisted, Small Wutong is pretty high too. And climbing it took me 3 hours and 45minutes to be exact. I took the West hiking route starting from the Wutong archway, all the way to the Greenway, to the Small Wutong peak, and went down to those veryyyyy steep and challenging stairs goin to South entrance. Descending took me 2 hours. The hazy atmosphere makes it harder because the road and trails are slippery. Fog and mist will welcome you as soon a you reach the peak. Its windy and the temperature definitely is way cooler than at the foot of the mountain. They say in a clear day, you can see the rolling hills clearly and the dense forest below. I will definitely comeback. For my second climb, will try to reach the pinnacle of Great Wutong. Jiayou! ❤️ #travellater #wheninshenzhen #solofemaletraveller #hikingtrails #thisischina #wutongmountain

How can one not visit the tallest mountain in Shenzhen?

Once you've climbed the tree-shaded Wutong Mountain, you'll realize that 'from different angles the hills look like ridges, and from different distances the peaks vary in height,' which can also be seen in Shenzhen. Even though the 'waterfalls cascading directly down' are not three thousand feet, they are captivating enough to intoxicate every climber with the beauty of Wutong Mountain, immersing them in the embrace of nature. Five-star recommendation, free admission, it's advisable to avoid weekends.

Wutong Mountain in Shenzhen

The scenery on the mountain is really beautiful. It's tiring, but I climbed for a total of 8 hours with many stops and photo sessions. I started climbing around 8:00 AM, choosing the most challenging but shortest route, Xiutong Trail. Along the way, I enjoyed the beautiful scenery and took pictures, with long rest periods. I came down the mountain at about 16:00. The total time spent was nearly 8 hours. Although it was exhausting and I took many breaks, the moment I reached the summit, I felt it was all worth it. I'm glad I persevered. It was a great climb, considering my abilities.🧗🏻‍♀️

Wutong Mountain by off road path only.

The wutong mountain can be done by off road only, the hike is much more quiet, wild and pleasant than doing it with stairway. 🚩Begin from Heng Pai Ling bus terminal (横排岭总站) 🚩Follow the river until you see a dam, turn left to stairs. 🚩At the broken fence, follow the path on the outside, go down and cross a small river, from there begin the path. 🚩Follow the main path for about 3h until you get to the main peak (大梧桐) this part of the hike is steep so be careful! 🚩Follow the signs to the smaller peak Xiao Wutong (小梧桐) via the stairway，after a long straight stairway you get to a car park with a seven eleven. Remain on the upper platform and follow the sign for the small wutong. Pass a small pavilion, keep walking for 15/20 min until you get to another car parc with a bus station. 🚩The second part of the path is on the left, with barricades , walk around it and follow the path for about 2h until you reach the main road. 🚩Turn right and walk until you get to the metro station Wutong Shan south station, you made it! The hike is steep at the beginning, there is no toilet, no shops until you reach the main peak, so have good shoes, water and food with you. The second part of the path is exposed to the sun with no cover, a good hat and sunscreen is necessary ! #hikingtrails #outdoor

I went to Wutong Mountain on the weekend, and I can say that I went there with a straight back and came back with a bent back🤣 It was so❗️tired❗️ If you want to challenge yourself, welcome to climb Wutong Mountain! This note introduces our one-day climbing strategy for Wutong Mountain (it takes 7 hours, about 10km on foot, almost all steps)👇 🔥【Route】 1⃣️High cost-effective+time-saving+tiring: Xiantong Sports Park—Lingyun Road—Small Wutong (the landmark is Shenzhen TV Tower)—Haohan Slope—Big Wutong—Xiutong Road down the mountain (near Shenzhen Foreign Languages School) 2⃣️More leisurely+time-consuming: Wutong Mountain North Gate Arch—Wutong Mountain North Road—Phoenix Platform—Haohan Slope—Big Wutong 3⃣️The most tiring+most challenging+most beautiful scenery: Bitong Road—Big Wutong 4⃣️The fastest way to reach the top of Big Wutong: Xiutong Road (you can see the night view of Yantian Port at night) ———— We chose route 1⃣️, climbing both Big and Small Wutong, it takes about 6-7 hours, all on foot, without any tools~ It feels very tiring! My feet were useless the next day😖 ⚠️【Some practical tips】 1⃣️If you plan to take photos on the mountain, be sure to choose a sunny day! Although it was sunny this time, there was fog overall, and the visibility was not very good, so the photos taken on the mountain were not very clear and good-looking~ 2⃣️Friends who like to take photos remember to bring a telephoto lens📷 There are many places on the mountain that are very photogenic, especially the TV tower of Small Wutong, whether it is watching the sunset or taking cityscape photos are excellent❗️ 3⃣️Drones are not allowed at the Small Wutong TV Tower, but they are allowed elsewhere~ 4⃣️You don't need to bring too much dry food and food, there are things for sale on the mountain! There is a small shop at each rest platform, try to travel light (except for those who take photos) 5⃣️There are no cable cars or sedan chairs on Wutong Mountain, you have to walk all the way, everyone must be prepared with sufficient physical strength!
