They are all historical redwoods. In the past, the mountain roads were not easy to walk and the roads were narrow. If you drive there, you should pay attention to safety. There are no tickets in the park, only a parking fee of ten yuan, which is quite economical. The scenery goes without saying. Look at the picture.

If you live nearby, you can go to the mountain to exercise every day, and there are many wildlife. Come and play with your family on holidays. The mountain road is not very steep. You can also bring children. You have to bring more water. When you climb to the peak, you must pay attention to your feet' safety.

Excellent hiking, cycling and outdoor recreation area with ample parking, stunning views, beautiful trails, public facilities and safety! Highly recommended for moderate difficulty high meadow trails with views. Free admission! The area has water dispensers, bathrooms and 8 parking lots. They have barbecue place, picnic table, even bike repair points. Definitely worth a visit to get exercise. Probably busy but it’s too big, really doesn’t matter!

In early November, many places in the wetlands here are dry, and the grass is yellow, but it is super open and you can see a few mountains from a distance. The cool autumn wind is particularly comfortable
