Dabie Mountain Main Peak (Baimajian)

Dabie Mountain Main Peak (Baimajian)

4.2
4.2/5
453 reviews

The Dabie Mountain Main Peak (Baimajian) is located within Huoshan County, Lu'an City, and is the highest peak of the Dabie Mountains; the second main peak is Duoyunjian, and the third highest peak is Tianhejian, with the three peaks arranged in a triangular formation like the legs of a tripod. The summit of Baimajian is covered with rare pines and grotesque rocks, and on the northeast slope, the thousand-year Duzhi Rhododendron Garden grows over a thousand Duzhi rhododendrons in various forms. Every spring when flowers bloom, the scenery is delightful and truly rare. The architecture at the entrance of the attraction is constructed from natural stone, with stone windows built from several giant boulders being particularly ingenious and unique among attraction architecture in China. After passing through the ticket gate, a natural fallen rock comes into view, engraved with the three characters "Dabie Mountain Main Peak (Baimajian)", marking the beginning of the mountain climbing tour. Ascending the stone steps, the first thing that comes into view is the artificial waterfall—Dragon Gate Waterfall. In spring, summer, and fall, mountain springs collect behind the dam; when the water is full, it spills over, forming a curtain of water that hangs in midair and plunges straight down. Passing by the waterfall, along the way you can see pictographic rocks such as Crouching Dragon Ridge, Turtle Carrying Its Shell, Beauty's Rest, Immortal's Boot, and One Man Guarding the Pass, as well as attractions including Golden Bamboo Peak, Longevity Pavilion, the Strange Pine Corridor, and the Thousand-Year Duzhi Azalea Forest. Upon reaching the summit, the 800-li Dabie Mountains unfold in endless layers of peaks and ridges, with distant and nearby hills all visible at a glance. At the top stands the Baimajian elevation marker stele, built of stones in the shape of "1777." The stele is approx. 3 m tall, representing the 1777 m elevation of Dabie Mountain Main Peak (Baimajian).

Overall it's good. Canyon rafting is exciting and water fights are fun. I thought the ticket price was a bit expensive at first, but I will come again. The children also had a lot of fun. It's worth playing.

Environment: No worse than Lushan Waterfall. Perhaps Lushan Waterfall is less impressive because the poet Li Bai visited it. The waterfalls of the Dabie Mountains cascade down, creating a magnificent and refreshing sight, nourishing the soul. We arrived at the waterfall at 9:30 AM and didn't see a rainbow. The entire scenic area was very cool. Since it wasn't a holiday, it wasn't crowded. The boat ride cost 50 yuan; remember to bargain if you're an adult and a child. My personal suggestion: definitely buy tickets online in advance. You can buy a basic package first (rainbow + scenic shuttle + rafting), then buy whatever else you like inside, and you can bargain. There are three types of rafting; the one we tried was the least fun. The river rafting requires you to paddle manually, so make sure you understand the details beforehand. The overall environment of the scenic area is quite nice, but the facilities and services are a bit lacking. Our two-day trip to western Anhui was spent entirely in the mountains, so we didn't get a real sense of nature.

The Dabie Mountains, stretching for thousands of miles along the border of Hubei, Henan, and Anhui provinces, are a picturesque landscape. Countless natural and cultural attractions dot the landscape, offering different views in each season and from all directions, beckoning you to explore.

The hot spring town is very big and parking is very convenient! The room is very big and the private hot spring is amazing! There are many hot spring pools on the top of the mountain, which are reasonably distributed. The infinity pool is great for watching fireworks! The local restaurant in the deep mountains is reasonably priced and tastes good, well received!

It's easy to exchange tickets, the motorboat is sealed and safe, and the whole journey takes about 20 minutes. Without the sun, it is very cool to open on the reservoir. It is much more convenient than waiting for a big boat, so it is recommended that people choose more.

Very good! The scenery is beautiful, elegant and challenging. Along the way, azaleas of different shades accompanied us closely. The long journey began at the foot of the pine trees and sea of ​​clouds. At the entrance of the scenic area, we also encountered the famous prisoner sitting bird, a national first-class protected animal, the white-crowned long-tailed pheasant.

The equipment at this ski resort is relatively new, and the ski slope is relatively steep, but it is very wide and long. You can eat on the second floor, with Shaxian, pots, hamburgers, etc. A portion of fried rice is 20 yuan, and a grilled sausage is 6 yuan. Because of the warm winter this year, the snow at the ski resort is very slippery, and my pants, socks, and gloves are all wet. Because there are too many people learning snowboarding at the ski resort, it is very difficult for beginners to slide down from the good side, and they need to know how to dodge.

There weren't many people when I went, because it had just rained. I chose the flatter paths; taking the more challenging paths would have been more fun. The scenic area isn't very big; you can see it all in a little over an hour.

The mountain is very cool in summer and there are not many people, which makes it very suitable for hiking. It is very enjoyable to walk alone on the quiet mountain path. The parking lot is large and there is no need to queue. Is there any happier attraction than this?
