The company contacted me prior to the tour to confirm pickup times and details. My tour guide was Maggie and she met me in the Hotel reception on time. We drove east to Mount Huashan and arrived with the weather quite blustery. However, the cable car was still running and Maggie escorted me to the top. She ensured that I was aware of the timings to return to the cable car and return to the base, and off I went on my walk around the Mountain top. There was very little wind at the top and the day was sunny. There were many people there enjoying a day trip or picnic. Some of the women were dressed for the high street rather than mountain walking!! The views were amazing and the walking was a little strenuous at times. I stopped for something to eat at one of the restaurants. There were also small shops selling water, snacks and gifts. I returned to the cable car on time and met Maggie and the driver at the bottom. I snoozed on the drive back to Xi'an as I was tuckered out! A wonderful experience which I would recommend, should you be in that part of China.
