Guangdong's hidden hiking paradise


|24-hour guide to the Sanguanding Starry Sky Meadow in Maoming✨
⚠️Seriously! Don't worry if you haven't been to Xinjiang
This "Sky City" hidden in western Guangdong
The uninhabited meadow that makes mobile phones fail
A healing mountain hike that even beginners can enjoy!
📍One-click navigation: Niucheping, Xindong Town, Gaozhou City
🚗Transportation strategy:
✔️Self-driving navigation "Niucheping Parking Lot" parking fee is free
✔️About 4 hours drive from Guangzhou and Shenzhen (it is recommended to depart in the early morning to avoid the crowds)
✔️Note: The last 2 kilometers of the mountain road are rugged, so experienced drivers need to drive carefully
Hiking route options:
✅ Beginner-friendly version: 8 km round trip (6 hours)
✅Lightweight challenge: small loop 8 km (6 hours)
✅In-depth exploration: 15 km large loop (10 hours)
⚠️It is strongly recommended that beginners take the original route or a small loop! There are ribbons marking the entire route, with the first half being a cement road and the second half being a grassland trail.
📸Check-in position:
🔸Top of the bridge: oil painting background of rolling sea of ​​clouds
🔸Digging Huangbao: A dynamic movie of wind blowing grass waves
🔸Sanguanding Observation Deck: 360° panoramic view of the grassland
🔸Night Climbing Secret Land: The magical moment when the Milky Way falls into the grass
🌟 Night climbing strategy (proven and effective):
⏰Depart at 22:00 → Arrive at the top of the mountain at 2 am
🌟Equipment list:
✅Reflective vest + headlamp (safety essential)
✅Thermos cup + Red Bull (battery life magic)
✅Folding stool + starry sky blanket (sense of ceremony on the grass)
✅Mosquito repellent spray + long socks (to deal with mountain leeches)
⚠️Guide to avoiding pitfalls:
❗️Don’t listen to the system prompts when navigating! Turn left and go uphill
❗️Turn right and it’s all downhill! Look for the direction of Niucheping
❗️No supply points throughout the journey! Bring your own dry food + 2 liters of water
❗️The wind speed on the top of the mountain is level 6! Jacket + sun hat is essential
❗️Bring a power bank when climbing at night! Signal is intermittent
🌄My wonderful experience:
When the last ray of starlight disappears
The meadow in front of me suddenly lights up into a blue ocean
The sea of ​​clouds slowly unfolds like a giant curtain
At that moment, I suddenly understood what "paradise on earth" meant.
💡 Surrounding gameplay:
🌿After going down the mountain, go straight to the "Xianren Cave" to soak in the mountain spring
🍲Eat a bowl of white-cut dog + glutinous rice in Gaozhou Market
📸Shoot forest-style photos at Xiangwo Ecological Park
💰Total cost:
🚗Fuel + parking fee: about 500 yuan
🍖Dry food + water: around 80 yuan
🛏️Accommodation: Mountain foot B&B 150-300 yuan/night
✨Finally, some thoughts:
In this place known as "Little Switzerland of Guangdong"
The lack of mobile phone signal has become the best gift
When we are away from the hustle and bustle
Only then can you hear the sound of the wind blowing through the meadow🌾
