Beat the crowds
Start early at Yuanjiajie and Tianmen to enjoy softer light and fewer visitors on viewpoints and the glass walkway.
Protect knees on steps
Bring trekking poles or stick to breaks—many areas require steep stair descents and uneven stone steps.
Prepare for sudden weather
Pack a lightweight rain shell and quick‑dry layers; fog rolls in quickly at higher elevations.
Respect glass sections
Follow guide instructions on Tianmen glass walkway—no running, and remove sharp objects from pockets to avoid damage.
Sturdy hiking shoes
Good traction and ankle support for uneven stone steps and boardwalks.
Light rain shell
Protects against sudden mountain showers and wind‑driven mist.
Layered clothing
Temperatures fluctuate with elevation and sun exposure—pack thermal and breathable layers.
Daypack with water
Carry 1–2 liters, snacks, camera and any personal medications for long viewpoint stops.
