Day 1 Shanghai → Qixiakeng Ancient Trail → Shanghai
All day
07:00-07:15 Gather at the designated location of China-TravelNote and sign in.
Departing at 07:15, we had a lot of fun on board with interactive activities and itinerary introductions!
Arrive at the almost isolated Qixiakeng Ancient Trail around 11:00, then enter the ancient trail to start your hiking trip.
Around 12:30, we will continue along the winding ancient road, enjoying the colorful autumn forests along the way. We will enjoy our own lunch at a picturesque rest stop along the ancient road, while enjoying the tranquility of nature.
Arriving at the top of the mountain around 15:00, you don't need to be amazed at this time, because this is the most beautiful season in Siming Mountain. A golden world, fir tree needles are spread like a golden carpet, it is like an oil painting or a fairy tale.
After a short rest, we continued our journey along the autumn road. The forests were dyed in a riot of colors. Overlooking the entire valley, it was like a painter's palette, with "red flowers" and green leaves, which made us feel relaxed!
On the return journey, we hiked the last 4 kilometers, repeating the same route as the outbound journey. We arrived at Qixiakeng Village around 16:30 in the afternoon. The car had been waiting for us there for a long time, and we took the car back to Shanghai.
We returned to our departure point in Shanghai around 20:00, and the wonderful journey came to a hurried end. Everyone was still reluctant to leave and said goodbye with tears in their eyes!!!
The maple leaves, fir trees, and other scenery are greatly affected by weather, rain, and temperature. The viewing period is expected to be 3 weeks. Please be advised!
