Sometimes, when planning a trip, opportunity is important.
After seeing the beautiful pictures of Wugong Mountain posted by netizens and seeing the lush green meadows, I had the idea of going for a walk.
When I mentioned this to a friend, I learned that my friend Yue Yue happened to be planning a trip to Wugong Mountain as well, and it turned out to be a "compatible". Together, the two decided to go with the club considering it was their first time to reload. As a result, the number of applicants was not enough and they could not form a group. Therefore, the two rookies had to fend for themselves.
After referring to the itinerary and equipment list issued by the club, we consulted with several old donkeys to buy tickets, buy equipment, and borrow equipment (thank you to the amigos who lent us equipment: Xiami, KK, Xiaoxin, and a certain friend), seven Seven or eight, we’re ready to go.
Approximate itinerary:
On November 1, the overnight train arrived in Pingxiang;
On November 2, we set off from Longshan Village in Pingxiang and arrived at Qianzhangyan;
November 3, destination Golden Summit;
On November 4, we went down the mountain and returned to Pingxiang city;
November 5th, return trip.
To reduce the bounce rate, here are some beautiful pictures.
There are no green meadows, there are golden meadows.
This hike was our first time to repack, and the weight of the backpack had reached the limit of what we could bear, so knee pads and double poles were very necessary and could play a great role in protection and assistance.
Arrive at Pingxiang Railway Station early in the morning. After exiting the station, take a taxi directly to Longshan Village and cross Wugong Mountain.
Entrance to Longshan Village at ten o'clock in the morning.
It was going uphill and uphill all the way, and my luggage was very heavy. I had to find a foothold with every step and walk steadily.
The hiking route of Wugong Mountain can be said to be quite mature, and there are supply points along the way. But the trick is that since it is not a weekend, the supply points are closed. Fortunately, we brought enough dry food and water, otherwise we really don’t know how to continue. Here is a reminder for friends who plan to go, remember to inquire about the supply points.
Encounter a flat road by chance and look at the scenery.
I have forgotten which section of road I took the photo on.
Moments of character explosion:
The destination we planned to reach on the first day was Fayunjie. At three o'clock in the afternoon, Yueyue and I had already arrived. After asking the store, we found that walking ahead were Qianzhangyan, Haohan Slope and Despair Slope; we really wanted to continue walking and reach Qianzhangyan. , increase today’s itinerary, so that tomorrow’s itinerary will be easier, but the problem is, we don’t know if the inn in Qianzhangyan is open. Although we brought a tent, washing and eating were problems. After a little struggle, we decided to continue forward. After walking for more than an hour, I arrived at Qianzhangyan, but unfortunately, the inn on the roadside was closed. At this time, I didn’t know how long it would take to walk forward to reach the next open inn. It was impossible to go back, so I had to make a decision. I plan to camp on the spot and make do for one night.
Just when we were dejected and ready to start work, a couple walked in the opposite direction. They said hello briefly and complained about our situation. They brought us good news, saying that there was an open inn just over the hill in front of us. Yueyue and I picked up our bags again and moved on. At this time, there is a lot of motivation underfoot, because there is delicious pheasant ahead.
The inn that brings us hope – Brothers Inn.
The red tent in the picture is our accommodation at night.
The inn is run by a middle-aged couple, both of whom are very enthusiastic and responsive to requests. Bathing water is also very refreshing. You know, what a great thing it is to have a continuous supply of hot water in this mountainous area where water resources are severely lacking and power supply is unstable!
Got the pheasant.
The tent lent by a friend is very useful for novices and it goes smoothly when set up.
After taking off the equipment and taking a short rest, the next project is to watch the sunset.
Under the leadership of the boss, we came to a hillside behind the inn and waited for the sunset.
The air index was not ideal, and the sunset was covered with a layer of gray, but it was beautiful enough.
Tip: There is a big temperature difference between morning and evening on the mountain. After the sun went down, we and the girls accompanying us were already freezing, so be sure to bring more clothes.
——How to cook chicken?
——Half is boiled and half is stir-fried.
After eating and drinking enough, we got into the tent to rest early. Except for the strong mountain wind in the middle of the night that disturbed our sleep, everything was fine.
PS: The moon is too bright, not a single star can be seen, which is a pity.
sunrise.

The lady boss used the leftover chicken soup we had last night to make noodles, which was so satisfying.
Pack your bags and set off for the destination: the highest peak of Wugong Mountain – Golden Summit.
There are reeds all over the mountains and plains.
Steep slope is still steep slope, be careful and be careful again.
Tiny Little Red Riding Hood.
On the way, I met an uncle who was delivering goods up the mountain. He was wearing thin-soled military shoes. The supplies on his shoulders were so heavy that the pole was deformed. At this time, I felt that even selling a bottle of mineral water for 10 yuan was not an exaggeration.
Behind the Red Bull is the highlight of this Wugong Mountain, "Despair Slope". I simply replenished food and water, adjusted my mood, and tortured my legs.
The slope is intimidating and cannot be shown in photos.
It feels like there is a 60-degree slope that makes people feel like they are going to fall every time they turn around. At this time, you can only cheer yourself up. You must not let your feet go weak and you must hold on.
Luxurious public toilets in Diaoma Village.
From Diao Mazhuang, take the stairs directly to the Golden Summit, and our trip up the mountain is coming to an end.
After experiencing the Despair Slope, my feet no longer obeyed me. The last walk up the mountain was very difficult. I relied on the support of two poles to have the strength to step up a step. There are 8,000 stone steps, which is really tough.
Golden Summit souvenir.
When we reached the top of the mountain, the weather was no longer very good. After the first night’s tent experience, we decided to stay in a hotel. There was only one inn on the top of the mountain, with clearly marked prices and average conditions. For us at that time, having a roof to shelter from the wind was enough.
When we woke up the next day, we encountered heavy fog, with visibility only a few meters. Yueyue and I were very lucky to have climbed the mountain early, otherwise we would not have been able to see the road.
The road down the mountain has disappeared into the clouds and mist.

The trip down the mountain was relatively easy. We walked for a while, then took the ropeway, walked for a while, and then added a ropeway to reach the foot of the mountain. The driver who came when we arrived left his contact information and gave us a phone call, and he was waiting for us at the foot of the mountain.
At noon, we arrived at the foot of the mountain, which is also the main gate of Wugong Mountain Scenic Area.
The weather at the bottom of the mountain is really different from the weather at the top.

[The wonderful thing about hiking for me is that every time I walk and climb, there are thousands of grass and mud horses floating in my mind. I ask myself why I torture myself so much. When I look back at the route, what I think about is where to go next time. ? 】
