Shenzhen's most sought-after spring flower sea hiking route!

In Shenzhen, spring arrives when the Rhododendron moulmainense blooms on Wutong Mountain! When the mountain is covered with azaleas, it's as if the whole world is painted in romantic hues. Today, I'm sharing this hidden gem of a hiking guide for Wutong Mountain. Save it and let's go!🚶‍♀️ The Perfect Route Dengyun Trail➡Abandoned Cable Car Station➡Xiaowutong Azalea Valley➡Ten Mile Azalea Trail➡Tofu Head➡Butterfly Valley➡Phoenix Terrace➡Flower Screen➡Azalea King➡Haohan Trail➡Wutong Mountain North Gate The entire route is about 13 km, with a total climb of over 700m. The highest point is Tofu Head at 706m above sea level. Walking at a leisurely pace, it takes about 6 hrs. The scenery along the way is picturesque, and every step is full of surprises~ Transportation Guide • Departure: Take the bus to Liantang Subway Station and start your flower viewing journey from there. If you're driving, navigate directly to the Dengyun Trail starting point for a convenient and quick start. • Return: After your hike, you can easily return home by bus from the Wutong Mountain Bus Terminal or Wutong Mountain Main Station. Essential Gear • Energy replenishment: Bring at least 1 liter of drinking water and 500 ml of electrolyte drink to stay energized. Pack a delicious lunch and find a scenic spot along the way to enjoy a pleasant picnic. • Personal belongings: Wear comfortable hiking shoes and quick-drying clothes. Don't forget a sun hat for protection. Bring your phone and a power bank (10,000 mAh or more) to capture those beautiful moments. You can also download route maps in advance on apps like 2bulu or 6zicj for easy navigation. Must-See Spots • Azalea feast: Rhododendron moulmainense takes center stage, with vast expanses of pink flowers resembling a fairyland. Walk along the Ten Mile Azalea Trail, where different varieties of azaleas compete in beauty. Don't miss the exquisite azaleas at Phoenix Terrace, each one more vibrant than the last. • Natural beauty: Along the hike, the mountain forest is tranquil, with streams gurgling. In Butterfly Valley, butterflies dance among the flowers🦋. There are also various strange rocks and ancient trees, showcasing the wonders of nature. Practical Tips • The Lingyun Trail is challenging and not recommended for beginners. • There's a shuttle bus from Xiaowutong to the starting point of Haohan Trail, but it only goes uphill, not downhill. • For an aerial view, take a helicopter ride near Xiaowutong Square (CNY 298/person). • To see the "Azalea King," the treasure of the mountain, go to Flower Screen. • If your stamina is limited, you can return from Xiaowutong Azalea Valley. • Weekends are crowded. For a peaceful flower sea experience, start early on a working day. Embrace spring at Wutong Mountain and experience the romance of being surrounded by flowers. Are you ready for this beautiful spring hike?💓
