Jizhen Mountain, Summit and mountain range in Conghua, Guangdong, China.
Jizhen Mountain is a peak in the eastern section of Liuxi River National Forest Park that rises prominently from the surrounding forest. The terrain features multiple marked paths that ascend through dense vegetation and varying elevations to reach both the main summit and secondary peak.
The name Jizhen means "cockscomb" because the main summit and its subpeak, seen from a distance, resemble a rooster's comb. The subpeak at 1,146.7 metres is better known than the 1,175-metre main summit, so some sources mistakenly give its height as the mountain's elevation.

Visitors enjoy the mountain best by hiking the established trails, which offer different levels of challenge depending on fitness and available time. It is wise to bring plenty of water and sturdy shoes, as the paths wind through uneven, forested terrain.
