You may have read the forgoing reviews and think well Mount Yufu is an easy climb. Well, yes and no. My husband and I decided to make the attempt with nominal training. We took approximately 4 hours to go up and down. I made it to the cradle whilst he made it to the top of the east peak which is purportedly easier. What made it more difficult was that for most of the climb, the path was littered with loose rocks and stones. If you do not have the appropriate hiking shoes, your feet and ankles would be in for a battering and you constantly have to watch you balance as the rocks can easily slide or give way. For me the descent was extra challenging because it was punishing on the knees as well. Having said that the path to the summit was well- trodden and clearly marked. The numerous switchbacks made for a gentler slope. We also noticed many elderly folk armed with hiking poles making the ascent and descent, as well as parents with young kids doing the climb. That of course galvanized us to make it to the top! The views were worth it!

We went there with our baby in the carrier. It’s quite peaceful. We can see many fish and birds around there. If you have time, you should sit at the cafe near around the lake.
