Jiugong Mountain camping guide with tents, campsites, barbecue and other information
Jiugong Mountain in Xianning is also a good place for camping, and I plan to go camping there this time. The mountain road to Jiugong Mountain has many twists and turns, and the speed limit in the mountain is 30, which is quite a test of skills. When going in the summer, you have to consider the weather in particular. Many cars are parked on the side of the road because their brakes are overheated. 1. Traffic strategy
After arriving at Jiugong Mountain, search for "Tonggu Bao" in the navigation to go up the mountain. By car, it takes more than three hours from Wuhan. 2. Weather and temperature
Many people go to Jiugong Mountain for the stars there at night. In order to ensure that you can see the stars, it is recommended to check the weather forecast in advance. The temperature difference between morning and evening will also affect your ability to go out. When you are still wearing separates in the afternoon, you will have to put on a cotton-padded jacket at sunset.
Eating is still very convenient now, just bring self-heating rice and self-heating hot pot! Then you can bring snacks. I planned to go see the stars, so I thought of bringing hot pot for a midnight snack. Normally, there are barbecues and other things there, so it’s best to bring something to eat. I really haven’t seen any restaurants along the way. 3. Information on tents, camping sites, and barbecues
You can buy a tent yourself for more than 100 yuan. You can bring your own tents or rent them. The rental price is 60 yuan/top. The price is very affordable.
The campground officially has an area planned, called "Jiugongshan Starlight Park", where you can camp and watch the stars. There are also overnight camping buses and more.
The government has strict requirements when it comes to barbecue. You need to ask specifically about the situation of the scenic spot. Barbecue is generally not allowed and can only be done in specific areas.
Essential items for camping: tent, insect repellent, thick clothes, thick quilt, slippers, power bank, extra food, poker and other small entertainment items, etc. 4. Travel Guide
Distance duration: It is about 180 kilometers from Wuchang, and it takes about three and a half to four hours by car. It is recommended to watch the sunrise.
Suggested tips:
It is recommended to visit for a day or two
There are indeed many scenic spots in Jiugong Mountain Scenic Area, but many of them are still under construction. Those are not yet open to the public. You can also see the sunrise and starry sky when traveling from Jiugong Mountain. Attractions such as Yunzhong Lake and Shilong Gorge belonging to Jiugong Mountain are also worth visiting.
It is recommended to bring your own tent
It costs one to two hundred to buy a tent online, and it also costs one to two hundred to rent a tent locally. In addition, there is a venue fee for setting up a tent, which is 100 yuan per tent per night.
It is recommended to travel with light makeup
There is a tourist public toilet not far from the tent where you can remove and apply makeup, but there is only cold water, which can solve the problem of makeup removal.
