Longcanggou Forest Park Guide

🧭For navigation by self-driving car, enter "Longcanggou National Forest Park Parking Lot". The road conditions are very good all the way, and there are only 3-4 sharp and steep turns on the road up the mountain. There are two separate scenic areas here, one is Tianshengqiao, and the other is Diecui Stream. It is recommended to visit both scenic areas in one go, as long as you arrive at the scenic area before 11 am, there is no problem to finish both in one day (except when there is a long queue for the shuttle bus during peak season). 🙀Surprisingly, there were very few tourists coming here during this year's Spring Festival. Reference for this trip (total time spent 5.5 hours): Take the shuttle bus from the visitor center to Tianshengqiao ➡️ After getting off, walk and visit Tianshengqiao ➡️ After finishing, take the shuttle bus back to the visitor center ➡️ Then take the sightseeing bus to Diecui Stream ➡️ Walk down the mountain and visit Diecui Stream back to the visitor center. Ps: There is an even better plan that can save some time and the fare for the sightseeing bus to Diecui Stream. That is, after visiting Tianshengqiao, ask the shuttle bus driver to stop at the "Yuhua Waterfall" station on the way down the mountain, get off there, and enter directly from the interior of Diecui Stream, then walk down the mountain for about 1 hour back to the visitor center. Tianshengqiao: A circular walking scenic area, which feels more suitable for winter, especially when it snows or after snowing, the ice waterfalls inside are indeed worth checking in. Tianshengqiao can only be reached and left by the scenic area shuttle bus. After entering, there is a fork in the road going straight and turning right, you can take either path, it's a circle inside, and you will eventually return to the starting point. ⚠️Important note, when playing after snowing or in snowy conditions, be sure to put ice grips on your shoes, as the snow and ice are very thick throughout, and the steps are almost completely covered by snow and ice. There are many steps going up and down along the way, and it's really easy to fall badly without ice grips, so it's better to buy them in advance or rent them on site. Diecui Stream: A walking scenic area along a stream, which feels more suitable for spring, autumn, and summer. Today, Tianshengqiao still has thick snow, but the snow in Diecui Stream is almost invisible. There are three ways to visit: one is to take the sightseeing bus up and walk down; the second is to walk up and take the sightseeing bus down; the third is to take the sightseeing bus both up and down (not recommended, it's better not to go if you play this way). ⚠️Important note, there are three points along the walking route where you can take the sightseeing bus midway, so you can choose to take the bus if you can't walk anymore. 🕒Time reference for visiting: 35 minutes by shuttle bus to Tianshengqiao 1-2 hours of walking around Tianshengqiao 15 minutes by sightseeing bus to Diecui Stream 1.5 hours of walking back to the visitor center from Diecui Stream The uphill sightseeing bus of Diecui Stream ends at 4 pm The downhill sightseeing bus of Diecui Stream ends between 5 pm and 5:30 pm 🔧Facilities: There are no snack bars throughout both scenic areas, only vending machines selling drinks and snacks like chips and biscuits. Only the visitor center and Tianshengqiao boarding point have food and drinks for sale.
