Most activities can proceed as usual even if there is light rain. There is still fun to be had on rainy days. If heavy rain is forecast, the event will be cancelled and a full refund will be given.

3. Is this route crowded?

Most of our routes are natural and niche, with relatively small traffic. Of course, it also depends on the registration situation of each session. Generally, ordinary buses are 37-seater buses, and a few large buses are 53-seater buses. Each bus has a certain proportion of tour leaders to ensure the quality of the activities.

Dongling Mountain is located in the northwest of Mentougou, west of Beijing, 122 kilometers from the capital. At 2,303 meters above sea level, it is Beijing's highest peak and is known as the "Roof of Beijing." Due to its altitude, Lingshan, within a 25-square-kilometer radius, has become a unique natural scenic spot in Beijing, combining the dramatic peaks of fault and fold mountains with a boundless array of flowers. The area boasts a unique natural landscape, with unpredictable summer weather and shrouded mountains in mist. It boasts a mix of warm temperate and Siberian vegetation, including forests of rhododendrons, lilacs, and birch, as well as plants like hazelnuts, goldenrod, and roses. The area is particularly renowned for its alpine meadows, providing a natural breeding ground for Xinjiang fine-wool sheep, Ili horses, and Tibetan yaks in Beijing.
