Shengquan Mountain
圣泉山
A hiking area northwest of Huairou town. Guanyin Peak at the top is home to an old Guanyin temple, and strange rocks and springs line the route. It's ideal for a half-day hike.
Shengquan Mountain lies in Qiaozi Town, Huairou District. Its main peak is Guanyin Peak, and the mountain takes its name from the springs found within it. On the mountain are remains of old temples, including Guanyin Temple. The hiking trail follows the valleys and ridgelines, passing unusual rocks, mountain springs, and viewing platforms. From the summit you can look out over Huairou urban district and toward Yanqi Lake. The round trip takes about 3 to 4 hours and involves a fair amount of climbing, so it suits visitors with some fitness. Check the scenic area's notices for admission and opening hours. It is about 20 minutes by car from Huairou urban district and can be combined with Hongluo Temple on the same day.
