The entrance is 60 yuen and you have to buy a bus ticket for another 20 yuen. The busroute towards the start of the hikes is about 10 km and there is no sidewalk so it is recommended to get the bus ticket. We tried the hike which is straight ahead when you get at the starting point (big stairs with flowers attached to it). It was a really nice walk (lots of steps) but we could not go to the top since 6 months ago part of the road had collapsed. We then tried the other stairs which goes parallel with the cable car. There was a group of acrobats close to the bridge who was doing acrobatics on a bicycle on a rope all the way to the other side of the gorge. There were a few treks from there which we did not follow since we ran out of time. We had a really nice day up there and it was defintely worth going. We rented a car for the day, and I think that is better because there were not a lot of taxis around. There are some small shops and toilets at the starting point of the hikes where the bus drops you off.
