Tianmen Mountain Self-Guided Travel Guide
1. Tianmen Mountain is the highest mountain in Zhangjiajie, a scenic and famous city, and the average temperature on the mountain is about 10°C lower than in the urban area. So even in the hot summer, the mountain feels cool and pleasant. In winter, needless to say, but the shops at the upper cableway station rent down jackets year-round.
2. Because of the special geological landforms, the summit of Tianmen Mountain has many bottomless sky holes, so you should tour according to the route signs and must not go alone into the deep forest. If you accidentally get lost, you can call the scenic area inquiry phone or emergency rescue phone at any time.
3. If you happen to be touring in dense fog and rainy weather, pay attention to slip prevention.
4. If touring in winter ice and snow weather, it is recommended to put a pair of straw sandals over your shoes. In fact, all kinds of rainproof and anti-slip clothing are rented and sold at the various shops on the summit.
5. When climbing the 999-step Heaven Ladder at Tianmen Cave, pay special attention to safety. Do not play around when going up and down the ladder; hold firmly to the stone pillars or iron chains on both sides. If there are elderly people or children, be even more careful to prevent falls and injuries.
6. As for touring time, it can be decided according to the specific itinerary of individuals and teams. Since there are currently no hotels in the scenic area providing accommodation, and night in the mountains comes relatively earlier than in the urban area, it is recommended to take the cableway down the mountain before 6 p.m. in summer and before 5 p.m. in winter.
In addition to the above, it is especially worth pointing out that it is best to hire a guide. Because Tianmen Mountain has complex terrain, it is easy to get lost. And some places have dangerous terrain. With a guide leading the way, you will feel more at ease and safer.
