Hi Ellyse, I see you're climbing up Wu Dang Shan on Friday and down on Saturday - are there places to stay at the top?

I took me about 3 hours or so to climb to the top, but there's cable cars too, I didn't realise there was accommodation at the top.

Was just wondering about that, can't really input on the rest. Sounds like fun :)

There's a place to stay at the Golden Summit, but we didn't stay there. We stayed at the cluster of hotels at Nanyan, still a couple of hours of climbing to go.

Due to weather conditions, the cable car wasn't in operation when we visited.
