There is direct shuttle bus from Luoyang to Yuntaishan. The bus departs from Luoyang Jinyuan Bus Station at 09:20 and costs CNY51.5 per person. The ride takes around 2.5 hours. If you can not catch this bus, you may also take shuttle bus from Luoyang Bus Station to Jiaozuo first (around 3 hours), and then transfer to a regular bus bound for the mountain.
As for the route back to Xian, you can either choose to take direct bus or trains. The bus leaves from Jiaozuo Long-distance Bus Station at 07:30 and the journey takes around 9.5 hours. If you take train, you may go to Xiuwu West Railway Station or Jiaozuo Railway Station for train to Zhengzhou first, then change to the train to Xian.
