General presentation
Mount Sanqing
Granitic peaks, pines and suspended footbridges make up a spectacular Taoist massif northeast of Jiangxi.
Mount Sanqing, Eastern Goddess and West Coast Trail give the most telling landmarks of Mount Sanqing. Together, they form a destination where mountain reliefs, forests, heritage and natural spaces meet, with atmospheres that change over the stages rather than just one uniform decor.
See all
For a stay of 2 to 5 days, it is better to balance visits and travel times. Also to be anticipated: conditions to be checked according to the season. A car is usually the easiest way to connect the different sectors. Accessibility varies from site to site and deserves to be verified step by step.
