Qinling Autumn Tour 1: Hucai Road.

Yuetai Road is a popular autumn route in the Qinling Mountains. The usual route is from National Highway 210 to Yuetai Road via Fen Shui Ling. However, this is usually the only section.
The route I took started from Xi'an, then went to the Qinling Service Area via the expressway. I parked my car in the service area. Behind the service building is a road, which is the starting point for hiking to the east ridge of the Qinling Mountains. If you have enough time, you can hike for a day or a section. The road is basically along a stream. The service area has food and drinks, and it seems that you can stay there. Next to the service area, there is a five-star farmhouse featuring fish. After hiking, you can cross the service area to the opposite service area, return to the Zhuque exit, and enter Hucai Road.
The first section of Hucai Road leads directly to Zhuque National Forest Park. On one side is a babbling stream, and on the other side are red leaves and various styles of homestays. The scenery along the way is beautiful.
At the entrance of Zhuque National Forest Park, pass through the gate of the protection station on the right side of the road. There are very few residential areas and farmhouses along the way, and a health center is taking shape.
At the end of Hucai Road is a T-junction. Turn left to go to Xi'an, and turn right to go to Yuetai Road.
