Walking on Mangshan Ring Road in Beijing on weekends: climb the mountain to see the reservoir and see Beijing as far as possible.

Weekend is a good time to rest, just in time for good weather. This is a good time to go hiking. Where is a suitable place to go? In fact, three routes have been planned, one is the Mangshan small loop, and the other two are the Qianling Mountain loop and Juyongguan-Huyu intersection. However, considering the poor physical strength of the friends this week, I chose the route of Mangshan. After all, the difficulty is low and the scenery is good.

Because the trip is very simple, I am in no hurry to go out on Saturday morning. Get up and tidy up, go to Jin Dingxuan for breakfast and start walking to the destination. It's not far. I'll be here soon. Then walk not far along Shuiku East Road, which is the mountaineering entrance. There are many friends cycling by the reservoir, and everyone is doing what they like. This quiet scene is really great.

Start climbing the mountain, take the path, the road is easy to walk, the front shuttles through the Woods, climb a little higher, and the Ming Tombs Reservoir begins to show its beautiful posture. Although the location is not high at the moment, the scenery is already beautiful. Stop to enjoy the beautiful scenery and take photos.

After stopping for a minute, move on. After all, the higher the view, the better, and the good scenery is yet to come. I met several prayer flags on the way, and with the reservoir in the distance, I felt that I was in Tibet.

At this time, it's almost time for lunch. Let's find a suitable place to have lunch. This place is not suitable for staying long. We need to take a walk and have a look. It's really "I can't find a place to take it, and it doesn't take much effort." Not far away. At a fork in the road, turn left and you will continue to climb. If you go to the right, you will see an abandoned pavilion suitable for eating and resting. It's really a good place, and it's ok.

After lunch, I continued to enjoy the scenery. I really want to sleep here with a sleeping mat at this time. This position is too comfortable, and the scenery is beautiful and quiet, but I will continue my way. After all, I'm here to climb the mountain. At this time, it is not far from Mangshan Tower. Continue to climb slowly along the path. Most sections are relatively gentle, and eventually there will be a steep section, but it is still easy to climb up. Climb this steep slope and you'll almost reach the top.

When you get to the top of the mountain and look around, there is actually no amazing scenery on it, and it is near evening. At this time, it takes good technology to shoot the reservoir backlight, so the good scenery is still on the way! I stayed on it for a while, ready to go down the mountain. I went downhill along the park and soon reached the foot of the mountain, ready to go home and end my pleasant hiking today.

Route: the whole journey is less than 8 kilometers, and the climb is about 500 meters. The route is simple and the scenery is beautiful, which is suitable for leisure hiking on weekends.
