Longyin Gorge Plank Road

龙隐峡栈道

Located at the back mountain of Qingcheng, it is about 600 meters long, close to the steep cliff, with a plank suspended in the air for passage, making it a good place to enjoy the mountain scenery, escape the summer heat and explore the secluded places.
It is said that in ancient times, there was a dragon hiding in the gorge, which gave it its name. The mountains here are extremely steep, with the two mountains on the left and right only a stone's throw away, and below them is a deep mountain stream.
The plank road is a dangerous road that must be passed through in the ancient Jinchuan Post Road. In ancient times, wooden piles were penetrated through the rocks and paved with boards. Now it is rebuilt with reinforced concrete imitation wood, just like a long dragon hidden in the gorge.

The creeks and streams are well-known for their clear water quality and fresh air. It is indeed a good place to escape the summer heat.

By Xiangfei Zizhu |

Not far from the Three Pools Fog Spring, you will reach the Longyin Gorge Plank Road. I think this section is very interesting. The road is not easy to walk, but the scenery is good. It is 600 meters long and you walk along the flowing water and along the mountain wall. Many people choose to give up and go back after reaching here, but I personally like this section very much.

By Pengyaku |

Of course, compared to the front mountain (I have never been there for more than ten years), every time I come here with friends, I stay and play in the back mountain. In addition to climbing, the scenery in this valley is really good.

By Silu Travel |

The Longyin Gorge plank road belongs to the Qingcheng Mountain Scenic Area, or to be more precise, the Qingcheng Back Mountain Scenic Area. If you come here in the hot summer, it can be said to be a benefit on your travels, because it is a "natural air-conditioning field" and it is very cool to walk on such a plank road!

By Hundred Flowers |

A very beautiful place, a scenic spot in the back mountain of Qingcheng Mountain, the plank road is very tortuous, very suitable for taking pictures

By The insatiable pig girl |

The best part is the Longyin Village Path. I think the line that came to my mind at that time was "The winding path leads to a secluded place, where bamboo forests and grasses are deep." I especially like the village path built with trees as thick as bowls. When you walk on it, you can see the clear stream water under your feet through the even gaps, and you can touch the thousand-year-old greenery and feel a wave of coolness to reduce the heat. Every time I lean over and look down, I feel close to nature and feel the care of nature.

The Longyinxia plank road is the most beautiful section of Wulonggou, with a total length of about 600 meters. I chose to go up the mountain from Wulonggou mainly for it.

It is said that in ancient times, a dragon from Weijiang hid in the gorge, which gave it its name. The plank road was a dangerous road that had to be passed through in the ancient Jinchuan Post Road. In ancient times, wooden piles were used to penetrate the rocks and lay boards. Now it is rebuilt with reinforced concrete to imitate wood. It is about 600 meters long and looks like a long dragon hidden in the gorge. The scenery is beautiful.

By Old rich man who likes traveling |

We sped up along the way, but slowed down again when we got to the Longyin Gorge plank road because the scenery was so beautiful. Also, the road was narrow and there were so many people that we couldn't go faster even if we wanted to!

By FW_WF |

Walking along the river all the way, the scenery of the Longyin Gorge plank road is great, and the way down the mountain is all easy-to-walk stone slabs. This section of the plank road must not be missed, mainly because it is not tiring.

By Time Remembers |

There are plank road canyons with different drops and many waterfalls. Very beautiful.

By Keep busy |

We came to the Longyin Gorge plank road. After passing the narrow and dangerous Longyin Gorge plank road, the road was relatively easy to walk on and the scenery was also very good. You can clearly feel the coolness here. The name of "the most secluded place in the world" is indeed not in vain.

By Diamon Mengxi |

A place that left a deep impression on me. The road is super super small and the area next to it is still under renovation. It's really amazing.

By Bashanshushui |

The Longyin Gorge plank road is really very beautiful. There is a wooden plank road winding through the gurgling stream, close to the steep cliffs, next to the deep ravines, winding and twisting. There is also a viewing platform for tourists to stop and take pictures. The plank road is relatively narrow, and tourists going up and down need to give way to each other before they can pass. If you go there on a rainy day, you must be careful not to slip.

By Plum sauce |

This section of the Longyin Gorge plank road is simply breathtakingly beautiful. Qingcheng is indeed the most secluded place in the world. There was no one else on the road except us. There were birdsong, insects chirping, and gurgling water all around us. We were completely surrounded by green. The beauty and tranquility of that section would make us feel particularly calm and yearning when we think back to it now.

I personally think that the Longyin Gorge plank road is the most precipitous part of the Qingcheng Back Mountain. It is said that it is the only way to enter Jinchuan from the west in ancient times. The plank road is winding and steep, and the ground is slippery and difficult to walk on, but the scenery is beautiful and fresh, and it is worth a visit.

By Money Baby |

Wulonggou has the best scenery. The famous Longyin Gorge plank road is here. It is said to be the only way to enter Sichuan from the west in ancient times. The Longyin Gorge plank road is quite long. I think it is really the essence of the scenery of the back mountain of Qingcheng.

By There is no such thing |

The plank road has huge rocks at the bottom of the ditch as pillars. The crossbeams are connected by rolling logs and covered with wooden boards. Some places on the plank road are also made of cement to look like logs, which are covered with moss and it is difficult to tell whether they are real or fake.

By Happy Life |

The environment and scenery are quite good, pictures speak louder than words.

By 🌙moon🌙 |

A quiet place with small bridges, flowing water, and long ladders and plank roads

By Cannot reveal identity |

First arrive at Wulonggou and take the Longyin Gorge plank road. Here, two mountains face each other and are only a few feet apart. The ravine below is deep and the water is fast. The plank road uses huge rocks at the bottom of the ravine as pillars, connected by rolling logs, and covered with wooden boards. Some places are covered with moss, blending with nature.

By China-TravelNote users |

Among them, Longyinxia Plank Road is the most beautiful section in my opinion. Although there are beautiful scenery everywhere from the moment you enter the mountain, Longyinxia Plank Road is definitely the highlight! !

By Tang Canghai |

When we descended to the plank road of Longyin Gorge, there were continuous waterfalls. The plank road broke through the air on both sides of the gorge, sometimes gentle, sometimes steep. There were piles of big rocks in the stream, the gorge was narrow and dangerous, and the stone walls were upright. There were also large and small pools scattered up and down the gorge, green and lovely. When I got here, I felt the charm of the back mountain of Qingcheng Mountain.

The Longyin Gorge plank road is located in the middle reaches of Wulonggou in the back mountain of Qingcheng. It is said that it was named after the dragon of Weijiang River hid in the gorge in ancient times. The plank road was a dangerous road that had to be passed through in the ancient Jinchuan Post Road. In ancient times, wooden piles were used to penetrate rocks and lay boards. Now it is rebuilt with reinforced concrete imitation wood. The total length is about 600 meters, just like a long dragon hidden in the gorge. Stone ladders, stone planks, and suspension bridges are connected up and down, winding against the mountain. Some use huge rocks as pillars, and some rely on hanging rocks, hanging between waterfalls and cold pools. When people walk on it, the stream light and the sun shadow are connected, and the blue sky is connected; the rocks on both sides are blue and ochre, and strange breasts hang down. It makes people daydream and feel cold. In the canyon, there are cold springs flying in the sky. At noon when the sun rises, rainbows can be seen everywhere in the water mist, which makes people feel more interesting.

The plank road is very steep, and the cliffs are uneven. The scenery is pleasant.

By I am the deep-water fish Lan Chengxiao |

The Longyin Gorge plank road is so beautiful. I definitely recommend walking along this road. It shows how secluded Qingcheng is.

By Suxi |

Soon we arrived at the Longyin Gorge plank road, which is really the essence of the entire Qingcheng Back Mountain. It's a pity that my camera can't capture its beauty~~~ This is my first time climbing Qingcheng Back Mountain. I really like it here. The scenery is beautiful and the air is fresh. If you want to embrace nature, this is the best choice! I will definitely go there again if I have the chance~~~!!!

Especially the "Longyinxia Plank Road" here, which feels to be the place with the best scenery and the most spiritual atmosphere.

By Regicide Grandpa |

The most beautiful scenic spot in the back mountain of Qingcheng Mountain. It is a road with particularly beautiful scenery. It is highly recommended as a must-visit place in the back mountain.

By Heart extinguished |

It's a long plank road. Although it's very tiring and hard to walk to the back, the scenery is really good.

By Wang Xiaodie |

Longyin Gorge plank road! Located on the left side of Wulonggou, you can reach it by walking up the gully for half an hour! The back mountain ticket map is chosen here as the background! It feels pretty good and quite unique!

By Sinian Little Lich |

The Longyin Gorge plank road is so beautiful that it is beyond words. Qingcheng is indeed the most secluded place in the world. There was no one else on the road except us. The birds and insects chirped and the water gurgled around us. We were surrounded by green. The beauty and tranquility of this place would make people feel particularly peaceful and yearning!

By Sunflower Mom |

It was drizzling when we went there, and the trail was very slippery, so we had to walk very carefully.

This time when I went to Qingcheng Mountain, I went directly to the back mountain of Qingcheng. I have always preferred more natural scenery. Before going there, I did some research online and looked at some photos online, but when I went there in person, I was still moved by the green mountains and clear waters!

By Vera |

The Longyin Gorge plank road is really, really, really beautiful! ! The sound of water gurgling in the mountain stream, a wooden plank road circling in it, close to the cliff, next to the deep ravine, winding and twisting, there is also a viewing platform for tourists to stop and take pictures. The plank road is relatively narrow, and tourists going up and down need to give way to each other before they can pass. The Longyin Gorge plank road is located in the direction of Wulonggou on the back mountain of Qingcheng Mountain. Starting from Youyi Village, you can reach Tai'an Ancient Town via the Longyin Gorge plank road, which takes about 2 hours. The scenery is really great, you must go and see it! Go and see it! Go and see it! Important things are said three times~

This road is very beautiful, with the gurgling stream

Going north from Tai'an Temple, you can reach Wulonggou, which is named because the valley is located between the five peaks of Bailong, Heilong, Qinglong, Chilong and Huanglong. This is also a place with many scenic spots. Enter Wulongfang at the entrance of the valley, go north along the valley, pass the Green Wind Pavilion, Haiman Pavilion, Jugong Pavilion, Jinwawatuo, and Longyinxia Plank Road, and you can reach Youyi Village. Jinwatuo is also known as Santan Mist Spring. A stream of spring water falls into three pools after three bends, step by step. The water is large and clear. It is surrounded by mountains, shaded by green, misty, and has a wonderful scenery. Longyinxia Plank Road was built halfway up the mountain, close to the steep cliff, next to the deep ravine, winding and twisting, and there is a volleyboard on the cliff. It is a good place to enjoy the mountains and scenery and escape the summer heat.

By @Muyudiewu |

The plank road is built entirely in the dangerous mountain valley, winding and tortuous, with rushing springs and abysses at the foot, and various waterfalls that are amazing. It is the most beautiful section of the back mountain of Qingcheng.

By Xiaolei |

Although there are protective devices, it is still scary to walk on it, especially since the road is wet and slippery, so you have to be more careful.

By Follow me everywhere |

The Longyin Gorge plank road is located in the middle of Wulong Valley on the back of Qingcheng Mountain. The surrounding environment is very good. The plank road is a bit slippery and there are gaps. You must remember, "Look at the scenery, don't walk."

Longyin Gorge Plank Road, a 100-meter-long streamside plank road on the back mountain of Qingcheng Mountain, accompanied by streams and waterfalls along the way

By Rainy Moon Wind Chime |

I feel very peaceful. Although I broke my leg, it doesn't affect my mood.

By Phoenix 2012 |

We walked in reverse through Wulonggou, basically going down. Longyin Gorge is full of stone steps, which are very slippery. You have to hold on to the turns before you can go down. The Longyin Gorge plank road is really the best scenery in Wulonggou.

By chelsea_zh |

After arriving at the Longyin Gorge plank road, there are more springs and waterfalls, and the amount of water is getting bigger and bigger. The stone steps are full of running water, so you must prepare a pair of shoes that can be used in water when visiting the back mountain of Qingcheng in summer. Walking barefoot in the water and stepping on the stones is uncomfortable and easy to slip. The scenery of the entire back mountain is the best at the Longyin Gorge plank road, which is 600 meters long and is all walking beside the running water and walking up the mountain wall. Although the road is not easy to walk, the scenery is excellent.
