History of Wutong Mountain:

The Wutong Mountain contains the highest altitude in Shenzhen and is surrounded by natural resources living in harmony inside the Mountain. It is often termed as the Wutong Mountain National Park and is located at the WUtong Village under Luohu District and covers an area of 32 square kilometers. Peak of the Mountain is above 943.7 meters from the sea level. It was declared as a National Scenic Spot in 1993 by the Government of Guangdong Province and the Mountain houses different plants and animals. It is estimated that the Mountain contains about 1400 species of natural plants and vegetations and most of them are rare and endangered now a days. Besides, about 190 species of wild animals are found here and they are preserved under special protection.

Shenzhen River which is flowing into Hong Kong and Shenzhen has been originated from the Wutong Mountain. The Mountainside is decorated with Sport Park and Forest Park and you have the option to observe different landscapes standing on the Mountain peak for the unrestrained seas and mountain ranges. The Wutong Mountain is a perfect place for hiking and climbing, and the locals in line with the visiting foreigners prefer the Wutong Mountain area most for its easy access from the city. During the Ming Dynasty, the Mountain has been adored most for its extraordinary beauty and also been used in poetry as well. Reaching the top of the peak needs efforts and times (about two and half hours) and there are several routes as well.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ’s):

Hello, How can We Help You?

Mount Wutong is accessible by bus from the corner of Dongmen Road and Shennan Avenue. Take the bus number 211 to its final destination: the base of Mount Wutong. This will cost around 2 yuan. Another option would be to rent a van to take you directly there, but this option will be slightly more expensive, perhaps around 10 yuan. However, I believe the extra money is worth it. Once you get to Mount Wutong, entrance is free for the hike itself.

There is no direct connection from Shenzhen to Wutong Mountain. However, you can take the line 2 subway to Xinxiu then take the taxi to Wutong Mountain. Alternatively, you can take the bus to Yantian Bus Station then take the taxi to Wutong Mountain.
