You can choose the cable car or walk. The cable car takes 7 minutes to reach halfway up the mountain with a wide view; hiking takes about 2 hours, shaded by green trees along the way. There are gentle slopes and steps between the two peaks. Nantianmen is on the second peak, a bit steeper, but kids aged 5+ can generally manage it!
