Emeishan National Park

Mount Emei is a large nature reserve with dense forests, waterfalls, and numerous hiking trails that crisscross the terrain. Different routes lead to various elevations, offering distinct views and experiences depending on which path you choose.

Buddhist communities began settling on the mountain in the early centuries, establishing it as a major religious center. These early monastic communities shaped the spiritual significance that continues to define the place today.

The mountain serves as a center of Buddhist worship, with temples integrated into the landscape where both pilgrims and hikers share the same pathways. This religious significance shapes how the place looks and feels during a visit.

Cable cars connect key areas while marked trails accommodate different fitness levels and time commitments. Depending on your stamina, you can do short walks or commit to multi-day hiking expeditions.

Wild macaques inhabit the mountain and frequently approach hikers on the trails. Visitors need to keep food secured and exercise caution around these animals.
