Do these before you go
- Book and pay online with real-name, confirming your entry slot and gate (East or West);
- Fix lodging and travel to and fro, and plan your entry and return times;
- Check the weather and opening and cable-car operation and plan around them.
What to carry
- ID, order details, a little cash and mobile payment;
- Non-slip shoes, a warm jacket, a raincoat, a sun hat and common medicines;
- Drinking water and a little food, a power bank, tissues and a rubbish bag.
How to arrange the climb
- Go steadily, rest often, climb within your limits and descend before dark;
- Hold the rails, mind slippery spots and follow on-site guidance;
- Carry rubbish down and care for the ecology.
Note
On a first visit, do not overreach — the core sights plus one or two interests are enough; put safety and experience first for a smoother trip.
