Crossing the Moligong Mountains between Yingde and Mo, one can walk along the mountain ridge and admire the peak forest

Located at the border of Yangshan in Qingyuan and Yingde in Guangdong, there is a hiking paradise comparable to Wugong Mountain and Chuan Diding, where trekking is much easier, with no need for heavy loads, and can be completed in just one day. This hiking paradise is called Moligong Mountain. Walking along the long ridge of Moligong Mountain, one can see the endless big grass slopes and thousands of beautiful karst peaks, all entering everyone's field of vision at the same time. Moligong Mountain, with an altitude of 1005 meters, is part of the extension of Qishan, facing the main peak of Qishan, Wenpo Mountain, which is 1210 meters high, with a majestic and towering mountain range that continues endlessly. This is one of the top mountain ridge hiking routes in Guangdong, with open views, beautiful scenery, and green grassy slopes stretching into the distance, reminiscent of the charm of the high mountain meadows of Wugong Mountain and Chuan Diding. Different from Wugong Mountain, Moligong is surrounded by beautiful karst peaks. Overlooking from the top of the mountain, the endless conical peaks are like the surging waves of the sea. Stepping forward along the high and low ridges, although somewhat tired, there is more surprise. Because the path is surrounded by countless beautiful sceneries. There is a small platform at the peak of Liugong, which is an excellent viewing platform. From here, one can easily embrace the magnificent mountain scenery of Qingyuan. To the south, the mountains are majestic and continuous, with the main peak of Qishan, Wenpo Mountain, in the distance. To the west, the beautiful karst peaks rise abruptly, forming a situation where many stars hold the moon.

Mo Liu Gong is the most beautiful mountain ridge in Guangdong

This was a unique and inevitable hiking experience. I joined a hiking group from Shenzhen, and we were supposed to reach our destination and start hiking around one in the afternoon, but due to various reasons, we didn't get there until almost four o'clock, and that's when we started running like mad! Mo Liu Gong Mountain is located in Hepin Village, Yangshan County, Guangdong Province. Walking on the ridge sharp as a knife's edge, with thousands of karst peaks on both sides, and vast meadows below, lifting your head to gaze at the vast Wanshan Mountain range, its beauty is striking! Location: Mo Liu Gong Summit Hiking duration: 3-5 hours Points to note: 1. Most of the journey is along the mountain ridge, with no shade throughout, so it's very sunny in the summer, be sure to protect yourself from the sun; 2. There are several supply points along the way, offering not only mineral water but also tofu pudding and other snacks, as well as restrooms; 3. It's best to prepare two trekking poles, as the ascent and descent can be steep, and trekking poles can make it much easier. Shoes are also important, choose comfortable and non-slip hiking shoes; 4. Leave no trace in the wild, protect the environment, and take your trash with you!
