Wunü Peak National Forest Park
五女峰国家森林公园
Pristine forested mountains about 21 km north of Ji'an, with five peaks in a row like five maidens. Autumn brings red foliage across the hills, and winter offers Jilin's longest forest ski trail.
Wunü Peak National Forest Park lies about 21 km north of Ji'an, beside National Highway 303 in the Laoling Mountains. Forest cover is dense, the main peak rises to about 1,000 m, and five peaks stand side by side, said to be five fairies transformed into stone. The park has wooden boardwalks and hiking trails, and a summit lookout offers views over the rolling forest. Along the way you'll find waterfalls, odd rock formations and Korean pine woods. Late September to early October is the prime time to see autumn foliage in Ji'an, and in winter the Wunü Peak ski area opens. Entry costs about 65 yuan and up (confirm with the park's official announcement). The round trip to the summit takes 3 to 4 hours and requires some stamina. Mountain temperatures swing widely between day and night, so bring warm clothing in autumn. The coordinates mark the centre of the park.
