Suggested Itinerary over Huangshan Trekking

Day 1

Take an afternoon bus from Shanghai Southern Bus Station
And the bus trip would be 5 hours.
As soon as you arrive at Huangshan City around 7—8 in the evening, take a cab to your Hotel ( Huashan Hotel ) 4 star
The cab fee would be less than 8 yuan. Tell the reception your name and you can get the key.

Day 2

The driver will pick you up at the lobby after your breakfast. You will drive to Huangshan ("Huang” means “yellow” and “shan” means “mountain”), about 75 km northwest of Tunxi. In 1990 UNESCO listed the Huangshan region as a world cultural and natural heritage site. Huangshan is one of the most spectacular areas in all of China. Its unique scenery of jagged peaks and twisted pines is often depicted in traditional Chinese paintings. Rocks, mist, trees, temples and water make this an unforgettable place. Within an area of 154 square kilometers is a crown of peaks, with 72 named for the shapes they resemble. Lotus Flower, Bright Top and Celestial Capital are the three major ones, all rising above 1,800 meters (5,600 feet). You will hike about three hours to reach the summit and the setting for the Beihai Hotel.
Remember: begin your hike from the western path and walk to the rear part, your hotel (Beihai Hotel) is located on the rear part of the mountain. If you are patient, let’s discuss your tour program face to face. 8 o’clock in the lobby.
Hike to Huangshan summit [2 miles, more than 1000 steps to climb, 1600 meters or 5000 feet above sea level, 4 hours; guests carry a change of clothing in their day back and leave their luggage locked in the shuttle vehicle as there is no road access to the Beihai Hotel]

Day 3

Watch the sunrise and get down to the bottom and your departure time is suggested before 4 in the afternoon.
One of the highlights of a visit to Huangshan is a Beihai sunrise: with a sea of low clouds blanketing the valley to the north and "island" peaks hazily reaching for the heavens. After breakfast you can cover more scenic spots around your hotel, such as Begin-believe Peak and Grand Valley close to West Sea Areas. Remember to get to bottom before noon and your driver will greet you at Yungu Cable Car Station. Take the car back to the Bus station and you can be back to your Shanghai hotel before 9 in the evening.
