To be honest, after running my first 42-kilometer marathon in my life, I lay down for two days and felt no pain in my legs. That was completely bragging. I still felt a little uncomfortable, but I still chose to set off and hike to Rentou Mountain without getting enough rest. , just because of love
Rentou Mountain is a shallow mountain, and the scenery is not as good as that of deep mountains, so I have never gone there, but I have always wanted to go because I have a ranking chart of the 30 peaks in Xi'an and wanted to check in all of them; I made several appointments but no one came. Success, maybe everyone thinks it’s boring, or maybe everyone just wants to challenge something more difficult, so it never happened; this time, by chance, I was lucky enough to set off to Rentoushan, so it didn’t matter whether my legs hurt or not, the main thing It’s not too difficult, the round trip is only eight kilometers in total.
As a rule, there must be hot pot in shallow mountains with low difficulty. Although I have prepared dishes, hot pot ingredients, pots, stoves, and gas at night in advance to have full motivation and information for climbing the mountain, I still slept until I woke up naturally in the morning before packing up and setting off. I had just finished running a marathon. , my physical condition is still poor and it is difficult to get up. Fortunately, Rentou Mountain is relatively close and not too difficult.
It was already half past ten when we arrived at the Rentou Mountain trailhead. I hurriedly backpacked up the mountain. Although the round trip was only eight kilometers, it was already one o'clock when I reached the top of the mountain. You can imagine how slow my brother was walking. He had no strength all the way. I’m not very energetic, but my legs are better. It seems that the marathon has almost exhausted all my ancient strength.
Rentou Mountain is also part of Zhongnan Mountain. Like Taixing Mountain, Jiawu Terrace, Shishi Maopeng, etc., there are various temples and Taoist temples in it, and there are still various hermits in the temples and Taoist temples. In ancient times, Zhongnan was a shortcut, but now it is the world of hermits. There are many mountains in China, but Zhongnan Mountain has the most hermits. There are so many that there are so many, so many that it is true. Do you know the truth? But then again, what is true and what is false? It’s true that people feel comfortable and live happily!
Living in the mountains requires two things: peace. One is a peaceful mind, which means that you can withstand the environment in the mountains and endure the hardships; the other is economic peace. Not to mention that being a hermit does not cost money, and renting a house does not cost money? Does soy sauce and vinegar cost money? Flour and rice for free? No money for clothes and bedding? At the very least, you should have enough living expenses to guarantee your normal life for one or two years, right?
Brother, I really yearn for this kind of life, but I may not consider living in the mountains until a long time later. My mentality is quite peaceful, and I have endured hardships. I don’t belong to the 21st century. I can’t live without the Internet or mobile phones. The only problem is that the economy is not stable, and I cannot maintain a normal life after entering the mountains. If you want to live the life you want, you have to keep working hard. Of course, it doesn’t mean that I will definitely live in the mountains if I have money. These are two different things, right?
Rentou Mountain is located in the Pullpao Valley; the Pullpao Valley is located in Wangzhuang Village, Yangzhuang (Shifozhuang) Township, Chang'an Yin Town. Legend has it that when Taizong Li Shimin was hunting in the mountains, his dragon robe was torn to pieces by a branch here, so it was named It's called Lapao Valley. The road between two mountains is far away, a stream flows peacefully, and the farmhouse leans against the green mountains.
Rentou Mountain, with an altitude of 1,779 meters, is a traditional primary mountaineering route in the Qinling Mountains. It was named Rentou Mountain because there is a huge rock on the top of the mountain that looks like a human head from a distance. Although it is a shallow mountain, it is an excellent place to watch the sea of clouds, especially the strange stones with human heads entangled in the fairy mist. It is reminiscent of Sun Wukong and the story of the stone. In short, it will make you feel like you are in the story. The beauty of the scenery is that when you climb to the top of the mountain, you can overlook the vast Guanzhong Plain to the north.
Climbing Rentou Mountain, you will be faced with the fairy wind caressing the vast Guanzhong Plain to the north, Taixing Mountain with an altitude of more than 2,200 meters to the southeast, Zhongnan Mountain to the southwest, Jiawutai, known as Xiaohua Mountain, to the west, and the Qinling Mountains in all directions. Endless, the scenery here is unique
Rentou Mountain is located in the transition zone between the urban plains of Xi'an and the Qinling Mountains, and is located in the valley. Whenever it rains and the sky clears, the fog quickly evaporates upward along the valley, easily forming a fantasy scene of clouds and mist floating in the air.
You can go to Rentou Mountain from the Pullpao Valley, or you can hike to the top from Dayu, or you can cross it. The premise is that it is convenient to drive after crossing. If there are two cars going up together, then it is ok. Ferry in advance. Good cars, one goes to the Zhanzhangyu trailhead and the other goes to the Chepaoyu trailhead. It’s very convenient.
If you climb the mountain from the Cheapao Valley, you can navigate to the Shifozhuang Village of the Cheapao Valley. The entrance to the valley is located in Wangzhuang Village, Yangzhuang Township, Chang'an District, about 6 kilometers away from the mountain-encircling tourist highway; the length of the valley is only a few kilometers. Going south along the Chapao Valley, you can park your car at the Rentou Mountain trailhead (the end point, where cars cannot drive up from behind) and start hiking.
If you hike to the top from Dayu, you can navigate to Leigu Stone. After entering the Dayu Mountain Ring Road, follow the mountain ring road and pass through Wuli Temple and Shili Temple to Leigu Stone. Then you can reach the Rentou Mountain hiking trail. You can hike up the mountain with a reliable leader who has experience and track record.
Finally, I would like to emphasize to everyone that there are risks in going outdoors. Do not go up the mountain alone, and do not bring your family or some novice friends with you and rush into the mountain to play without knowing the way; what is even more dangerous is that it is time to go down the mountain. It’s only been a while since I started climbing or I’ve only walked half way, but I still don’t listen to the advice. The outdoors is fun and interesting, but life is more important, right?
If you want to go to Rentou Mountain or some other wild mountains, remember to bring professional outdoor equipment, find a reliable team leader, put on hiking non-slip shoes, and set out early to climb instead of reading my or other people's travel notes. With my mind burning up, I set off. You deserve Age Outdoors. If you want to go hiking or long-term travel or even team building, you can contact Age. He has been playing outdoors for many years and has rich experience. Let my brother take you to visit every peak in the Qinling Mountains, the great country of the motherland.
