Walking Guide

Navigate by car to Juyong Pass Parking Lot No.2. After parking, do not enter the scenic area. Walk out of the parking lot and turn left. Pass through the arched tunnel and continue walking for about ten minutes (be sure to follow the signs). You will see a row of houses with green glazed tile roofs. Follow this row of houses and pass through another tunnel. Walk along the road for about 100 meters until you reach the entrance to the hiking trail. The entire wooden hiking trail is about a 15-minute walk to Observation Platforms No.2 and No.3.
