Winter hiking plan to feel the healing feeling between mountains and rivers in Yixing

Spring is the perfect time to get outdoors and embrace nature. Last weekend, we escaped to the mountains and forests to enjoy a breath of fresh air.
[🚗Transportation]
There is a parking lot at the foot of the mountain, and a shuttle service is available. The one-way trip takes about 15 minutes.
(There is only this one guesthouse on the mountaintop. The scenic area is not open to the public, so visitors can only hike up the mountain.)
[🏠Accommodation]
We stayed in the Sunrise View Mountain Lake View King Room.
✅The overall style is natural and warm, with wooden elements and a full-length window that frames the beautiful scenery outside like a painting.
✅There is a slide that the kids loved, and picture books are also available. After playing, the kids can quietly immerse themselves in the world of stories.
✅Perfect for lazy people! Just say, "Xiaodu, open the curtains," and then get out of bed to enjoy the beautiful sunrise.
[🍴Food]
In addition to breakfast, the guesthouse restaurant also serves lunch and dinner. You need to book in advance with the manager. We chose to have dinner here to avoid going up and down the mountain. The food is home-style, and you can order anything without worrying about it being bad.
[🌈Activities]
🌟A simple but fun children's play area. Even our kindergartener had a blast and didn't want to leave.
🌟The rooftop infinity pool blends seamlessly with the mountain scenery. When the weather is hot, you can enjoy swimming.
🌟There is also Xianglu Peak next to the guesthouse. You can take a short hike along the winding mountain road and enjoy the beautiful mountain scenery.
