A few immature suggestions
Wear non-slip shoes: There is only one road for the entire hike, and the whole process is basically climbing. There is about 20 meters of muddy road about 1 kilometer behind Mingyue Temple. It is okay when going up, but it is easy to fall when coming down, so shoes are very important. I was wearing sneakers, so I made a few clattering noises when I was walking down the mountain. The shoes are hard to wash, so I’m sorry.
Day Clothing Guide: The most photogenic part of the picture is the main picture, after walking on the muddy road. The colorful jacket is even more photogenic. The mountain in the fog is really worthy of its name. The fog is very heavy on the mountain. When you reach the top of the mountain, the air humidity is very high, like a light rain. A jacket is more suitable than non-waterproof sportswear.
Bring your own garbage bags: There are no garbage cans on the mountain, so you need to bring your own garbage bags.
Snacks replenishment point: Kaihua Temple canteen. There is basically no signal behind Mingyue Temple, and there is no place to sell things on the mountain, so don’t
Children: The entire hike is climbing, so parents with strong energy can ignore this
Travel with friends: Girls should not go alone, there is a section of Wuzhong Mountain that feels like Silent Hill
