Lazy Traveler's Guide to Fun 1. Effortless Scenic Views: Navigate to "Wuzhi Mountain Scenic Area," where a 40 RMB ticket unlocks pure joy. Drive all the way to the mountainside viewing platform, step out, and enjoy a bird's-eye view of Liuxi River Reservoir. Rolling mountains meet emerald waters, creating a natural oil painting—every snapshot is social media gold. 2. Discover Crescent Moon Lake: Continue driving from the mountainside to "Crescent Moon Lake." Its crystal-clear waters mirror the lush peaks, resembling a mini Jiuzhaigou. Stroll along the lakeside boardwalk, picnic in the pavilion, and immerse yourself in nature's serene beauty. 3. Easy Hike Experience: The lakeside trail leads straight to "First Peak," just a 15-minute climb suitable for beginners. From the summit, take in the panoramic reservoir views—both awe-inspiring and soothing. Seasoned hikers can challenge Third or Fourth Peak, but be prepared with proper gear; it takes over 4 hours. Pro Tips for Your Trip - Bug & Snake Alert: Dense foliage means more insects and snakes—pack mosquito repellent. - Time Management: No streetlights here—descend by 6 PM to avoid navigating in the dark. - Picnic-Friendly: Perfect for light picnics (bring a mat!), but no dedicated camping zones. - Footwear Advice: Some steep stone steps—wear non-slip shoes for safety. Here, mountain breezes carry cool mist, instantly melting away the summer heat—it’s like saving on AC! Truly Guangzhou’s top summer escape. While it’s still under the radar, grab your friends and go!

Conghua Wuzhishan is located in Liangkou Town, Conghua District, Guangzhou, about 86 km from the city center. It is an ecological tourist destination mainly featuring natural scenery. Its name comes from its unique mountain peak shape, with several peaks gathered at the top of the mountain, like five fingers standing in the sky. In addition to beautiful mountains and rivers, there are waterfalls, streams, canyons, and other natural landscapes, making it an ideal place for hiking, climbing, and photography enthusiasts. Liuxi River is formed by many streams, originally called Liuxi River, also known as Lvtian River. From a distance, the emerald lake and plum blossoms form a beautiful landscape painting with a harmonious color combination. Throughout history, many literati and poets have written poems about plum blossoms. Plum blossoms bloom more brilliantly in the cold weather, and you can smell the fragrance of plum blossoms along the way. Plum blossoms herald the arrival of winter, and the mountains are covered with white plum blossoms, like a poetic and picturesque scene that makes people sigh with admiration.

It features strange peaks and stone scenery, forest lakes, waterfalls and deep pools, ladders and clouds, and gorges and streams. Wuzhi Mountain is not just five peaks. There are more than ten peaks with an altitude of over 1,000 meters within a radius of ten kilometers. Hikers have named them Thumb Peak, Index Finger Peak, Middle Finger Peak, Ring Finger Peak, and Little Finger Peak. These peaks are all about 1,000 meters above sea level. Wuzhi Mountain is densely forested, ecologically primitive, and has charming scenery. It is a rare hiking route that often attracts many hiking, climbing, and photography enthusiasts. If you only have 3 hours, it is recommended to drive to the Crescent Lake parking lot and walk from Peak 1 to Peak 2, as the road is easier to walk. If you can leave at 8 am, you can go from Peak 2 to Peak 4. Peak 4 is far away, so it is recommended to prepare more food and water. Remember to go to the bathroom at the foot of the mountain before setting off. Bring hiking poles and a hat, wear comfortable shoes, and bring tissues.
