About this activity
Your English-speaking tour guide and driver will pick you up from your hotel in Xi'an at 8:30am and arrive to the mountain around 10:30am. First, take a shuttle bus and then a cable car to the North Peak or West Peak which is up to you own interest and physical condition. Afterwards, you will really get to the mountain top to start the exciting hiking. Your guide will provide detailed information in advance and you will enjoy your own hiking time. When you finish all the peaks (or if you just want to take some pictures and appreciate the awesome scenery but not do much hiking, it's totally fine), you will go to the appointed peak to meet guide and take the cable car and shuttle bus together to go to the mountain top.

There are 3 different routes to go through those peaks of Mt. Huashan, you can freely choose based on your own expectation and physical condition. Just tell our guide which option you prefer and he/she will help you to buy admission tickets. Here are instructions of the 3 routes:

Route A: Cable car ascend to/descend from North Peak
-- The cheapest option but require a good physical stamina if you want to cover all peaks.

Route B: Cable car ascend to/descend from West Peak
-- The most expensive option as cable car from/to West Peak covering longest distance to allow you the minimum walking. Also, it has the best views at the West Peak.

Route C: Cable car ascend to West Peak, descend from North peak by cable car
-- A nice option if you are not that full of energy but still want to cover all peaks (with medium cost and hiking).

Along the way of hiking, you will have chance to encounter those famous seeing points. You will visit some Buddhist and Taoist temples, sculptures and engravings on the peaks. When you pass the Gold Lock Pass, you can buy a golden lock and lock it on the iron chains at the Gold Lock Pass which should bring you safety and health. Imagine the marvelous scenery of thousands of golden locks on the iron chains. On the Middle Peak (Jade Maiden Peak), you can experience its special atmosphere in person especially the amazing sunset if weather permits. You will also have opportunity to experience those steep stairs.

After the adventure, meet your guide at the appointed peaks (West Peak or North Peak) and go to mountain foot together. Around 5pm the driver will wait for you at the exit gate of mountain and then transfer you back to your hotel in Xi'an downtown.

Note: 

1. Private transfer and tour guide is covered in this tour while the admission fee need you to pay on spot according to your interest.

2. You are suggested to prepare some food as lunch in advance as there is no restaurant on the mountain peaks.

3. If you would like to make admission fees included, please choose the other pricing options based on different routes.

Tour was great. Everything went like clockwork getting to and back from the mountain. Moutain was beautiful, but would have liked another day to see everything. Tour guide was nice and professional.

This was easily a major highlight of our 4 week epic Asia adventure. Our tour guide, Sunny, was such pleasure to spend the day with and told us all about Xi'an and Huashan mountain on our 2 hour drive to the mountain. We took a cable car up most of the mountain and then parted with Sunny to explore on our own for about 3.5 hours. We hiked first to North peak and then to Middle Peak. I won't sugar coat it, the entire hike is stairs sometimes very very steep stairs so it wasn't easy! But that made it all the more rewarding when we reached the summit of middle peak with a view of West and North peaks. It was breathtaking! There were a fair amount of people hiking the mountain but the general mood was a happy, delighted one so it was really fun. Finally, we hiked back down to the cable car and rode it to meet Sunny and headed back to the hotel.
