Cukengkou Hiking Trail

The Cukengkou Hiking Trail is located in Shangtian Village, Sijiaoting, Ruifang District. Access the trail by turning right into Lane 1, Cukeng Road, the first entrance after passing the Sijiaoting bus stop on Ruiba Highway. Your first stop will be Changxing Temple, which dates back to the Qianlong era of the Qing Dynasty and is therefore very old. Not far from Changxing Temple, beneath a public cemetery by the roadside, lies the long-abandoned Sanrong Coal Mine. It is said that the owner of the Sanrong Coal Mine at the time was a woman, which is why local residents also call Cukengkou 'Chamou Keng' (Woman's Pit). Although there are many forks along the trail, all have signs, making it difficult to get lost. When you reach the upper exit of the trail, don't rush back. Walk right along the access road for about 3 to 5 minutes, where you'll find an observation deck. From here, you can overlook the Sijiaoting area and also enjoy distant views of Wufen Mountain.
