You will start your climbing from the Jade Spring Temple and then following this route to climb till you reach the East Peak: walking about 30 min to Fish Stone – 20 min to Five-Mile Pass – 15 min to Stone Gate - 10 min to Shaluo Terrace – 10 min to Maonv Cave – 10 min to Qingke Terrace – 10 min to Mind Changing Stone (Huixin Stone) – 10 min to Thousand-Foot Precipice – 15 min to Hundred-Foot Crevice – 15 min to Taoist Temple of A Group of Immortals – 15 min to Laojun Furrow – 10 min to Ear-Touching Cliff – 5 min to Heavenward Ladder – 5 min to Black Dragon Ridge – 25 min to Golden Lock Pass – 10 min to Five-Cloud Peak – 15 min to Sunshine Welcoming Cave – 5 min to East Peak.
After that you can visit the other four peaks and use the North Peak Cable car to get down the hill.
If you plan to use the cable car to reach the peak, you can use the West Peak Cable Car to reach west peak first and then finish at North Peak. Use the North Peak cable car to get down the hill.
There are many hostel at the bottom of the mountain, so you can place your luggage there. Or you can place your luggage in the Tourists Center that is much safer.
