Good to know
Mosquitoes are common in the mountains during summer nights, so long sleeves and trousers are recommended. Temperatures vary greatly between day and night, so warm clothing is advised.
Wear comfortable walking shoes or sneakers; please do not wear slippers, sandals, high heels, etc.

The types will be arranged according to the actual supply on the day.)
This itinerary involves mountain roads, so please do not bring baby strollers or walking aids for the elderly. If the elderly have difficulty moving, please be cautious and sign up.
