Been to Mount Tai 5 times! Super detailed parent-child hiking guide is here

Blood and sweat experience summarized from climbing Mount Tai with kids 5 times🔥

Parents, just copy this directly📝

✅Must-have checklist

🔹ID card❗️❗️❗️

🔹Power bank (taking photos and check-ins use a lot of power)

🔹Goggles (photo magic! Great for pictures😎)

🔹Quick-dry clothes + windbreaker (strong wind at the summit can cause colds)

🔹Hiking shoes (breathable sports shoes are best)

🔹Tissues and wet wipes (towels on the mountain are expensive and rough)

✅Thoughtful tips

✨Mask and hat are essential (to protect against wind and sand)

✨Skip Snickers (there are plenty of snack stalls on the way)

✨A hiking pole is handy (cheap and useful)

✨Flashlight is a must (safety first on night paths)

✨Five yuan cash (for checking in at the "Supreme of the Five Sacred Mountains" stone!)

✅Warm suggestions

🌡️Rent a coat for 30 yuan/person (a must if you have low stamina)

💊Yunnan plaster (a lifesaver for leg pain after descending)

🌧️Disposable raincoat (weather changes quickly)

🥤Bring just one bottle of water (2 yuan on the mountain, very reasonable)

📱Check the weather forecast! (Sunrise is easier to see after rain)

💫Start from the Red Gate at 9-10 PM

Climb slowly for 5-6 hours to catch the sunrise perfectly

Remember to keep a good attitude

Seeing the sunrise is lucky

If you don’t, come again next time❤️
