[2025 Deqing Stay] Travel Guide for Moganshan Marvel Hostel (Updated Jun)

Moganshan, hailed as the emerald of Jiangnan, offers breathtaking scenery and stories at every turn. Here, I discovered a place perfect for both adventurers and those seeking relaxation—Moganshan Marvel (Yangjiale). Today, let me take you into this hidden gem nestled in the mountains and experience a unique getaway! 🌿🏞️ 👣 A Hiker's Paradise 🚶‍♂️ As an avid hiker, I couldn’t resist exploring Moganshan’s trails. Starting from Marvel, the mountain paths wind through lush bamboo forests, where squirrels occasionally dart across the branches. Breathing in the fresh mountain air and listening to the babbling streams feels like stepping into a world far from the hustle and bustle. And when you’re tired, returning to Marvel for a cup of their special mountain tea is enough to wash away all fatigue. 🏡 The Charm of Mountain Living 🏡 Every building at Marvel is thoughtfully designed, especially the No. 1 Villa with its mountain spring pool. At dawn, sunlight filters through the leaves, casting shimmering reflections on the water—a truly mesmerizing sight. The underground activity room, equipped with a pool table, karaoke, and board games, is perfect for fun-filled evenings with friends. Meanwhile, the No. 3 Villa offers a private courtyard, living room, dining area, and kitchen, making it ideal for cooking and enjoying quality time with family or friends. 🔥 A Playground for Outdoor Adventures 🔥 Marvel isn’t just a place to stay—it’s an outdoor activity hub. Try making bamboo-tube rice or crafting handmade qingtuan (green rice cakes), or head to the farm to pick fresh fruits and vegetables. Of course, the BBQ and whole-roasted lamb are must-try delicacies. In the evening, join the bonfire party to dance and sing around the fire—an experience that’s as lively as it is unforgettable. 🍃 Serene Afternoons ☕ At Marvel’s Cloud Top Café, sip on rich coffee while overlooking the village below. You might even meet fellow travelers and swap stories from your journeys. If the weather’s nice, rent a bike and ride along the mountain roads, feeling the wind and freedom. This trip to Moganshan became even more memorable thanks to Marvel. If you’re looking for a getaway that’s both adventurous and relaxing, Marvel is definitely worth a visit. Here, everyone can find their own joy and peace. 🌟

The path leading to Mo Fan is twisted and twisted, bamboo shadows are very secluded, and there is a feeling of paradise. If you find it will be a little difficult, Mo Fans host has a reception desk at the intersection. The reception is a building. The layered earthen lodge is also the front desk, the pizzeria, the coffee shop, the bar, the bicycle rental room... very romantic. Mo Fan's appearance is very low-key and simple, but walked into the gate of the wooden fence, along the stone steps, but found that there is a hole in the sky, this is a combination of the rustic simplicity of our country and the American western country style of exquisite architecture. Enchanting and intoxicating. There are swimming pools and hot spring pools in the yard. The spring water from the mountains is very clear. Close your eyes and enjoy the gifts of nature. Outside is a quiet mountain scenery. The body is bathed with warm springs and breathes green. Oxygen, listen to the smell of the mountains. Open the door, full floor to ceiling window, the roof retains the original slope roof structure, facing the roof, and the super large skylight, you can breathe the freshest air by pushing the curtains open, and you can take pictures everywhere. Living in the star vacant room through the skylight, lying in bed at night, you can count the stars to see the moon, and the mountains at the top of the mountain are unobstructed, melting in nature...

Moganshan came several times, all in different seasons. This happened to be a rainy day. Listening to the rain in the mountains is also a different kind of experience. Mo Fan, this local net red B&B has been on CCTV several times, and the reason I decided to come here is pure and simple. I just like the name very much. Mo Fan and Mo Fan are the same voice, there are too many red dust, no need to add unnecessary troubles to yourself, it is better to let go all the way back to the mountains, watching the mountains and listening to the rain. Indeed, the owner of Mo Fan is very understanding of the people, transforming his old house into a local boutique foreign house music. Mo Fanyin surrounded by bamboo forests is built on a high place, occupying an excellent view, integrating into nature, and Beyond the world. If your expectations for it are particularly tall, then I am afraid that I will be disappointed at first sight. Because Mo Fan is quite primitive, the appearance is low-key and simple, but when you really walk into it and understand it, it will be attracted by its inexplicable. After a short break, I stayed in the big bed room with a bathtub on the 1st floor. This building was transformed from the old building village house, and the decoration of the room is also as close as possible to the original, such as drying A hanger is such a bamboo pole. The bed and breakfast can be built on the balcony, and it is still a place where you can see the bamboo forest in the wild. This kind of design is quite bold, but it can evoke the urgent desire of everyone to return to nature. The window is a simple and comfortable room. The window is outside the Biwu Village. It is like a paradise by Tao Yuanming. Escape the city's car exhaust, come here to listen to the rain, blow the air, this is the simple life I want.
