Huayin travel guide

They say it is the most dangerous mountain to climb.
whether this is true or not, you have to discover yourself. But be prepared for a 6 hour walk in the night for the best experience (and amazing sunset).

So many epic spots on the hike to the Mt Huanshan summits

Getting to Mt Huashan from Xian was a challenge, but the reward was great. the views you get from this Taoist sacred mountain are unbelievable. Making it to the 5 peaks was an exhausting workout but the whole experience was a blast.

Huashan is about 120 km east of Xian, about 2/12 to 3 hrs ride from the city.

Five peaks make up this mountain, namely : Cloud Terrace Pea (North Peak, 1610 m), Jade Maiden Peak (Middle Peak, 2040 m ), Sunrise Peak (East Peak, 2100 m), Lotus Peak (West Peak , 2040 m), and Landing Wild Goose Peak (South Peak, 2160 m ).

This mountain has steep, vertical cliffs and plunging ravines . The views are breathtaking but definitely not for the acrophobic and the faint-hearted.
We took the cable car to The North Peak, was the most amazing cable car ride i'd ever been on. It's very steep and very high !

I wonder how some people manage to hike up the mountain, I take my hat off to them.
