My second time climbing Kuaiji Mountain. Compared to my climb two years ago, it’s two months later and so much hotter… The steps now have step numbers; there are 957 in total, with a reminder every 50 steps~~~ My main takeaway this time: it’s really hot! It was much easier than last time, especially on my legs, but I still need to improve my cardio.
The trail is mostly shaded by bamboo forests, so it’s not too sunny, but there are lots of mosquitoes and various other bugs.
From the summit, you can overlook the entire city of Shaoxing, though honestly, the view might not even be as high as some hotels…
There’s also a super goofy statue of Yu the Great.
One last reminder for everyone: once you start climbing, there are no places to buy water, so make sure to bring enough with you…
