Finally embarked on the long-awaited Wugong Mountain hike—  
Lying flat on the lush meadows felt absolutely incredible!  
Whether it's rainy, cloudy, or sunny, the sunrise and sea of clouds here are breathtaking.  
Experiencing this trail in person is truly something else.  
Guide is ready—let’s set off this weekend!  
📍 Jiangxi · Wugong Mountain  
🚄 Transport: Take the high-speed train to **Pingxiang North**, then carpool or take a bus to the destination‼️  
✅ **Reverse-Crossing Hiking Route**:  
**DAY1️⃣**: Longshan Village → Yangjiao Point → Mumuao → Fayunjie Summit → Fengchekou → Qianzhang Rock → Yunzhong Inn (overnight)  
**DAY2️⃣**: Yunzhong Inn → Wufa → Despair Slope → Guanyin Cliff → Diaomazhuang → Golden Summit → Cable Car → Scenic Area Gate  
✅ **Hiking Tips**:  
🟡 **Reverse-Crossing Starting Point**  
Navigate to "Longshan Village Erzitou" to reach the trailhead! The full reverse-crossing route is 19 km with an elevation gain of ~2000m (for reference only).  
🟡 **Mostly Dirt Paths‼️**  
The trail has lots of mud, rocks, and steep ascents/descents—challenging for beginners (assess your fitness level).  
🟡 **Supply Points**  
Plenty of stops for water, drinks, fruit, snacks, instant noodles, glucose, etc. (prices are consistent on the mountain). You can also bring your own!  
🟡 **Gear Essentials**  
Hiking poles, trail shoes, hat/gloves, windproof jacket! Large day-night temperature swings + strong winds—pack a thick outer layer‼️  
🟡 **Accommodation**  
Inns are available from Fayunjie onward (tents/private/multi-bed rooms). Book early in peak season; otherwise, choose as you go based on stamina. Conditions are basic—manage expectations~
