Haituo Mountain

It was my first time to climb a mountain with heavy equipment. It was an unforgettable journey. The scenery along the way was 5 stars, and the hiking difficulty was 4 stars.

Original ecology. The sea of ​​clouds, sunset, starry sky and sunrise all depend on luck, very beautiful.

There are no other services except the farmhouse village at the foot of the mountain that can provide accommodation, meals, and a small van to the entrance at the foot of the mountain, and there are mule drivers who can help with the mule transportation. Prepare your own equipment.

We came across Haituo Mountain on the way, it was really beautiful, but our plans for this year are full. We will definitely go there next year.

The mountain is surrounded by thousands of acres of birch forests and natural valleys, like a paradise. It is really like Switzerland where we have been. When we went there that day, it was full of clouds and mist, and it was full of fairy air.

Beijing has been getting warmer recently. I didn't expect to feel a little cool after the rain. It was really comfortable. There were clouds and mist in the distance and green grass nearby. I suggest you come here on weekdays. We were the only one in the valley under the drizzle.

It is very convenient to move around in the valley. The yellow one is the free shuttle bus in the valley, which can be stopped at any time.

The main slogan of Haituo Valley is that companionship is true love, which is exactly what every family needs, but sometimes it is difficult to do. Let go of the burden, give yourself a few days off, don't forget your original intention, and share with your family. This is the happiest time. My family is also my eternal support. Without support, no matter how beautiful the scenery is, it will be in vain.

There are many things to do in the valley, including cycling, hiking, yoga, children's library, farm, bonfire party, delicious buffet at the energy station, a cup of American coffee in the cafe with a beautiful view, and the cute pet farm where children will not feel tired after playing all day. A tent camp is about to be opened here. During the World Cup, you can watch the World Cup on the giant screen at night and cheer for your favorite team under the stars.

Surrounded by mountains and dense forests, the annual average PM2.5 value is less than 10. Walking along the trail here, you can experience different scenery in each season, enjoy the forests and meadows of Haituo Mountain along the way, and breathe the fresh mountain air. The temperature in Haituo Valley is about 10 degrees Celsius lower than that in downtown Beijing. It is a real summer resort. It is a bit cold to wear short sleeves, so it is just right to put on a thin adidas TERREX jacket.

A must-go place for outdoor activities in Beijing...

I went there on November 1st. It was very cold on the mountain at night, with a whistling wind. But the scenery was pretty good.

A good place not far from the city, with blue sky, white clouds, and beautiful scenery after reaching the top, at least it is one of the top three beautiful views in Beijing!

A camping paradise in the suburbs of Beijing, with suitable distances and different routes of different intensity to choose from.

A spontaneous cycling trip, cycling to Yanqing and climbing up Mount Haituo. That kind of mood, that kind of scenery. The scenery in late October is unique, and we are ready to set off again in midsummer!

The 2022 Winter Olympics alpine skiing event will be held at Xiaohaituo Mountain in Yanqing, Beijing. Haituo Mountain is located at the junction of the northern part of Zhangshanying Town, Yanqing and Chicheng County, Hebei Province, about 18 kilometers away from Yanqing. It belongs to Jundu Mountain. It is located in the transition zone between the Mongolian Plateau and the North China Plain, and is adjacent to the Yanhuai River Valley (Yanhuai Basin) in the south.



There are three peaks in Haituo Mountain: Dahaituo, Xiaohaituo and Sanhaituo. The top of Haituo Mountain is a gentle meadow mountaintop that is nearly 10 kilometers long, 500 meters wide, and no more than 100 meters at its narrowest point. Above 1,800 meters above sea level is a large meadow-type plant belt with golden lotus, day lily, palm ginseng, dandelion, fistula, and rhododendron. The south side has a significant rise and fall, the mountain is steep, and the clouds and fog are cut off. In summer, there are sudden rainstorms. It was called "Haituo Flying Rain" in ancient times, also known as "Swallowing Strange and Tuxiu", which is one of the eight scenic spots in Guichuan. Haituo Mountain is the second highest peak in Beijing that netizens talk about with great relish. From the top of the peak, you can overlook Guanting Reservoir and Yanqing City.



In November 2009, China National Geographic Magazine released a list of "Looking for the Top Ten 'Unknown Mountains'". Its comment: Haituo Mountain is famous for its typical northern temperate mountain forest ecosystem. With its varied landscapes and moderately difficult routes, it has become a base camp for outdoor sports enthusiasts in the suburbs of Beijing.



"Haituo Mountain" or "Haituo Mountain", this mountain range spans Beijing and Hebei. There is Dahaituo Village in Dahaituo Township, Chicheng, Hebei, and there is also the Hebei Dahaituo National Nature Reserve. Shanyang is the Songshan Nature Reserve in Yanqing, Beijing, and the Haituo Mountain is marked as Songshan (Haituo Mountain) 2198.388m.



The main peak of Haituo Mountain is 2,242 meters above sea level. It consists of three main parts, namely Dahaituo, Xiaohaituo and Sanhaituo. Dahaituo is located in the southwest of Chicheng County, Hebei Province, and Xiaohaituo is located in Zhangshanying Town, Yanqing. Xiaohaituo Mountain is also referred to as "Haituo Mountain" (Songshan) by local residents in Yanqing. There are many wild animals and plants growing on Haituo Mountain, such as artificial Pinus tabulaeformis forests, secondary Pinus tabulaeformis forests, oak forests, birch forests, and mountain meadows.



Although there was no rain or snow in Haituo Mountain in June, the rouge flowers on the mountain emerged from the meadows, which was very eye-catching on the green meadows. The rouge flowers stretched out tubular stems from the green leaves close to the ground, and many small trumpets burst out at the top, blooming bright red like blood. Some stood alone, and some clustered in threes and fives, like a high-altitude rotating swing, ready to flap their wings and fly high at any time.

Haituo Mountain is a place that you want to visit countless times after you have been there once. It is located at the junction of Hebei and Beijing, with an altitude of 2,200 meters. The shortest climb takes two hours, which is very hard, but when you reach the top, you feel that it is all worth it. There is a large platform. I have always wanted to have the opportunity to camp on the top of the mountain. This is a small goal I want to achieve this year. I heard that you can see the Milky Way with the naked eye.

The beauty of Haituo Mountain can only be expressed by saying that you want to go again after having been there. While the mountain is not completely closed, grab the last chance and make an appointment with those who want to go.

It is a must-go place for photography enthusiasts. I highly recommend it! Find an opportunity to go camping!

It's not easy to climb up, but it's all worth it when you see the surrounding scenery.

We went there during the National Day holiday, which was already autumn. According to locals, the mountain will be closed after the National Day holiday. The sunrise on the top of the mountain is beautiful, and the scenery of the trees on the mountainside is even more beautiful. The yellow, red, and green leaves complement the blue sky, which is dazzling. Camping on the top of the mountain requires adequate preparation. You need to be prepared for the 6/7-level strong wind at night, the temperature around 0 degrees, and the possible rainfall. I will go to Haituo Mountain again when the mountain opens next year, and I will go there every year in the future.

Watch the sunrise, wait for the sunset, count the stars, and look at the sea of ​​clouds. You know~

I don’t want Haituo Mountain to be developed, places full of wildness are what I love!

Take a walk on the wooden plank road outside the park, the stream is gurgling, the pine waves are surging, the mountains are on all sides, and the oxygen is intoxicating. The wooden plank road is about 1,000 meters long and is built on a valley with green trees and green mountains. It is next to a clear stream, birds are singing in the deep ravine, and there are many butterflies and insects. It is very charming. When entering Haituo Mountain, do not take the stone steps on the left or the fire road on the right. Follow the path. The more you walk, the more obvious it is. It is a zigzag uphill road. The Soul-Stirring Slope is not all the legendary 70 degrees, but it is indeed very long and steep. Most of them are between 40 and 50 degrees, which should not exceed the steep parts of the Xiangshan Hero Slope. It has always been a high mountain with dense forests, a narrow road with heavy fog, and sometimes a light rain. The scenery along the way is picturesque, and you can take pictures along the way. There are large patches of lilac, clusters of wild lilies, clusters of dandelions, and slopes of green grass.

Songtang Scenic Area is the front station of Haituo Mountain. It has accommodation. If you need quietness, it should be a good choice. The most beautiful thing about Haituo Mountain is its nature. It is the back garden of outdoor people, with sea of ​​clouds, starry sky, alpine meadows, wild flowers, and gifts from nature. Don't regret the Winter Olympics.

It was a great mountaineering trip! Although I was carrying a backpack weighing dozens of kilograms, I felt exhausted on the way up the mountain. I had to set up camp at the top of the mountain and take silhouette photos when the sun set. There was a strong wind on the top of the mountain at night, and I was exhausted in various ways. But when I got up early the next morning and saw the sunrise, I felt that everything was worth it! 2015.9.19@海蝨山

We went to Haituo Mountain with heavy equipment, and I still remember it vividly. It was really tiring but fun. The scenery is unparalleled. Among the mountains in the suburbs of Beijing, I love Haituo the most!

Haituo Mountain is very beautiful and is an undeveloped area. However, it is temporarily closed as it is the venue for Beijing's bid for the Winter Olympics. There are many flowers and plants on the mountain. It is the second highest peak in Beijing, with an altitude of 2190.388 meters. There are no roads on the mountain, but there are paths for outdoor enthusiasts to wander. One section is called the Ecstasy Slope, and the rugged rocks are really enchanting. Climbing Haituo Mountain is difficult, so it is recommended to wear professional equipment and have a certain amount of physical strength.

From Haituo Village, you can drive to the foot of the mountain. In fact, the altitude is about 1,500 meters. To reach the top of the mountain, you only need to climb 600 meters, which is equivalent to climbing Xiangshan in Beijing. Therefore, Xiaohaituo is the best choice for beginners. In June, the mountain flowers are in full bloom, and it will be even more beautiful at the end of the month when the golden lotus is in full bloom.

I hope I can go again after the lockdown is lifted.

From Dahaituo Village, you only need to climb 800 meters to see the alpine meadows, which are very suitable for camping.

I go there once a year. It is a very, very worthwhile place to visit. It is the closest mountain to Beijing. However, it is closed now because of the Winter Olympics.

Haituo is not really beautiful. The mountain is green, but it lacks vitality. There are flowers, but they are not bright and enchanting enough, lacking a bit of wildness. There are bushes everywhere, more like a wild land with a variety of plants, lacking the flavor of a primeval forest. But some people say that this is Haituo Mountain, very natural, very authentic, beautiful in a clumsy way without the need for carving. This is a matter of opinion. As long as everyone experiences it with their heart and gets a sense of their own, it will be worth climbing this mountain.

Haituo Mountain is located in the northwest of Yanqing, Beijing, close to Zhangjiakou, with an altitude of 2,242 meters and beautiful scenery. In recent years, the saddle between the Big and Small Haituo Peaks has been the best location for outdoor enthusiasts to camp, and it is also one of the classic coordinates for photography enthusiasts to shoot sunrise and sunset. The mountain is unpredictable, with frequent sun showers and strong winds.

Although Haituo Mountain is free now, the gate, fence and parking lot at the entrance of the scenic area have been basically built. In the near future, there will be a charge. If private cars want to enter the mountain, haha, that is impossible. There are a lot of people at the gate of the scenic area, who may be local villagers, driving various cars to block the road. People can go, but the cars stay...

Haituo, a green barrier stretching across the northwest of the capital Beijing, is a national nature reserve. It is located in the southwest of Chicheng County, Hebei Province, 100 kilometers away from Beijing, with a total area of ​​11,224.9 hectares, and its main peak, Haituo Mountain, is 2,241 meters above sea level.



The top of Haituo Mountain is a good place to watch the sunrise and sunset, and to watch the stars and clouds. . .

The transportation is relatively convenient, suitable for summer travel

Haituo Mountain, a place so beautiful that you don’t want to come back. A place where you just want to spend the rest of your life. The scenery at each angle on the top of the mountain is completely different, and the scenery with its own merits made me enjoy it to my heart’s content.

The clouds covering the east were like a rushing river, layer upon layer, and the light on the horizon was dotted with a layer of golden edges.

The setting sun in the west gradually dyed the sky with layers of dreamy purple, and the distinct mountains were surrounded by wave-like clouds.

The second highest peak in Beijing is the best choice for hikers to camp. You can watch the sunrise over the sea of ​​clouds in the morning and the sunset in the evening.

Climbing here, you have to take a break every three steps and a big break every five steps! Stones are more familiar to you than anything else. It is drizzling and the mountain road is muddy and difficult to walk on.

Walking hurriedly in the fog and clouds! Going down the mountain to wash feet and rest!

Haituo after the rain in Kongshan is really beautiful~ This is the direction of Yanjiaping, the slope is gentle and easy to walk, but the journey is long and time-consuming~

The reasons have been stated. The only regret is that I didn’t see the sea of ​​clouds. But I will never go there a second time in my life. I always believe that the imperfect beauty of the first time is the most memorable.

The beauty of Haituo lies in its plainness. It does not need any ruggedness or beauty to embellish it. Its ordinariness will take you into the depths of nature.

Anyone heading out soon? Join us! I really want to experience the mountains in Beijing. I won’t miss them three times if I miss them twice!

I highly recommend this place for camping. Upload some photos of the sunny scenery I saw in September 2013.

Haituo Mountain is located at the junction of Beijing and Hebei. The scenery on the top of the mountain is magnificent and it is worth camping to watch the sunset and sunrise. It only takes 2-3 hours to reach the top of the mountain from the foot of Dahaituo Village.

The beauty of Haituo is the refreshing feeling after you sweat. The steepness of the soul-shaking slope and the fatigue of climbing all the way will disappear without a trace after you see the beauty of the sea of ​​clouds, sunrise and sunset. And the vast green meadow will intoxicate your heart with beauty. Come, let's go to Haituo together!

I go there several times every year. Every time I say I won't go because the journey is so hard, but I go every time. So you have to go too. If you don't go, you won't see the beauty of Haituo.
