Limutai Scenic Area is famous for its beautiful terrain, fresh water, lush trees and other natural scenery. It is a good place for weekend outings in Beijing and Tianjin. Here you can walk and climb mountains, enjoy the freshness and nature, and enjoy the beautiful landforms and historical sites of the Great Wall. Every spring, there will be a large area of pear blossoms in the scenic area, which is a good place for photography.
The area of Limutai Scenic Area is relatively large, and the depth of the scenic area is about 7-8 kilometers. There are many scenic spots in the scenic area, but most of them are distributed on both sides of a main road. After entering, tourists walk along the main road until they reach the top of the mountain deep in the scenic area, and then return to the original road. The whole journey takes about 5-6 hours. If you don't have enough energy, you can return after halfway through the game. In addition, there are also shuttle buses in the scenic area that can save about 1 hour of hiking trails. It is recommended to take the shuttle bus to save energy when going up the mountain, and walk when going down the mountain.
Limutai and other mountaineering roads are roughly divided into three parts. One part is from the gate of the scenic spot to Dengtian Seam and Wuzhi Mountain. The distance is very short, about 1-2 kilometers. The main landscape in this part is the Dengtian Seam, which is a geological wonder similar to "a line of sky", with steep and steep cliffs on both sides. Tourists can climb to the top of the mountain along the stone steps between the cracks in the sky. It takes about half an hour. The top of the mountain has a wide view, and there are also the ruins of the ancient Great Wall in the Northern Qi Dynasty. You can take a closer look.
After watching the scenery on the top of the mountain, you can go down the mountain on the same road. The second section of the climbing road is from Dengtianxie to Limutai Mountain Villa. This section of the road is about 3 kilometers, and there are many scenery on the road, including Taiping Pool, Shengui Tanhai, Huangla Waterfall, Leopard Pool, Camel Peak, Butterfly Spring, Monkey Watching the Sun, etc. Among them, there are rocks and cliffs of various shapes. There are also fresh water streams, ponds and waterfalls, and the scenery is naturally beautiful. The Pear Blossom Terrace on the road is a place where pear flowers are densely packed. From April to May every year, you must not miss it when you come here to take pictures. In addition, there is Rhododendron Slope at Limutai Mountain Villa, and there are very beautiful Rhododendrons to watch in spring.
The last section of the mountain road is from Limutai Mountain Villa to the top of Limutai Mountain, which is more than 900 meters above sea level. This section of the mountain road is longer and takes about 3-4 hours to go back and forth. There are few scenic spots along the way, such as Longevity Stone, wild kiwi forest, etc., and the landscape is relatively ordinary, so many tourists will omit this section and return after visiting Limutai Mountain Villa. If you are a mountaineering or trekking enthusiast, you can climb this section. The view from the top of Limutai Mountain is relatively wide, and you can experience the exhilarating feeling of climbing to the top.
