Chengdu mountain climbing📷 with a broad view, this is a parent-child hiking route with no pressure. It's really important to take children outdoors for walks more often. As the saying goes, hearing about the fields from books a thousand times is not as good as experiencing the warmth of spring and the blooming flowers in person. The ultimate vitality is vividly demonstrated in the wild, so children should be allowed to enjoy the wilderness and run freely. The spring, summer, autumn, and winter views along this route are my favorite aspects, with a full staircase trail that is parent-child friendly and beginner-friendly, so I recommend it to everyone. 📍Zhongjia Mountain Forest Trail There are a total of 4 viewing platforms, and it takes about 2-3 hours to complete the whole journey. 🚗Navigation location: ① Xingkong Dongshan Forest Trail Get off the car and on the right is picture 2, where you can park on the roadside🅿️, but there are not many spots. ② Zhongjia Mountain No.2 Viewing Platform Once you arrive, you'll see picture 3, and from this trail, you can go up to the No.2 Viewing Platform. There is a parking lot🅿️ on the roadside, which is convenient for parking. 🚌Bus route: Take bus 870 to Lianhe Village Group 5 station, get off and walk to the No.1 Viewing Platform, a 10-minute walk to the starting point of the hike. Along the way, there are mobile snack stalls, so resupply is quite convenient, and there are toilets🚾 as well. The No.2 Viewing Platform is a large lawn with rest seats. Remember to protect against mosquitoes in spring and summer, as children are easily bitten, and take precautions against the sun, as there is basically no shelter along the way, making it a good place to watch the sunrise and sunset. Regarding the return trip tips, we don't like to backtrack, so you can come down from the No.3 Viewing Platform, and when you reach a small slide, there is a bridge underneath which is a cycling path. From here, you can take a shortcut through a farm orchard to the roadside. If you walk to the right along the road, you can get to the parking lot under the No.2 Viewing Platform. We generally like to park here and walk the trail up the mountain, then take the shortcut down, which is more interesting. You can also take the bus on the roadside, just wave to stop.
