China Weinan

Mount Hua

A sacred peak in Weinan, China, famous for its steep and perilous trails, it's one of the Five Great Mountains of Chinese tradition.

Tips from the community

Chinese people love to hike, and it’s not surprising given the landscape just waiting to be ascended all around the country. The sacred mountains, however, are the five most famous in the country and are thought to spoil all other hikes since you’ll have seen the most impressive and beautiful mountains possible. Each of these majestic mountains offers their own unique trials and rewards and ticking them off on your trip is easily achievable with a bit of planning. The most easily accessible and popular for visitors is Mount Hua (or Huashan) situated between Shanghai and Xi’an (at Huashan Station) which is so breathtaking it often leaves famous views (like the landscape from The Great Wall) paling in comparison.
