DCCC Hiking Trip on May 7th

DCCC is happy to invite you to a day of fresh air, hiking and beautiful nature when we do our first DCCC hiking trip! Join us for some exercise in beautiful surroundings and meet alike people on May 7th.

The DCCC hiking trip will go to Dong Ling Shan, which is the highest mountain in Beijing with a peak of 2303 meters above the sea level. It is located in Mentougou District about 120 kilometers to the west of the downtown, and is famous for its high peaks, alpine meadows, and rich resources of animals and plants.

We will take the Hongshuikou route which fits well for both beginner and those who look for some challenges. The route starts from Hongshuikou (洪水口), goes through Juling Village (聚灵峡) towards the famous Baihua Yuan (百花园), and ends up with very hard climb up to the peak of Dong Ling Shan (灵山主峰). The total hiking distance is about 24km.

The route can be split into the following 3 parts, and participants can stop and have some rest whenever they want as we will walk back on the same road where we walk up.

• Part I: Juling Village (altitude 950m): stone walkway, about 5-6 km (easy, 1-1.5 hours)
• Part II: Baihua Yuan (altitude 1860m): wooden walkway, about 4-5 km (medium, 1-1.5 hours)
• Part III: Dong Ling Shan Peak (altitude 2303m): wooden walkway, about 1.5 km (hard, 1.5-2 hours)

This will be a memorable hike, which will be followed by a voluntary well deserved beer and burger at Slow Boat Brewery (not included in price). Please sign up online as the seating is limited to 30 people*.
