Arrive at the hiking starting point at 10:30. We begin by passing through an ancient Taihu village and start climbing the first mountain: Dengwei Mountain. The first peak is the most challenging part of the journey, so it is recommended to bring trekking poles.
Once we reach the mountaintop, Taihu Lake lies beneath us.

Around 14:30, we arrive at the final stop of our trip, which is also one of the most important destinations: Xiangxuehai (Sea of Fragrant Snow)!
