Baodao Peak
薄刀峰
A 4A mountain scenic area on the western side of the Dabie Mountains, with a knife-edge ridge and attractions including strange peaks, rock formations and sea-of-clouds views.
Baodao Peak rises about 1,404 metres in northern Luotian County, on the western side of the Dabie Mountains' main peak. It takes its name from its narrow, knife-blade ridge and forms part of the Dabie Mountain National Forest Park. The peak is dotted with rock pillars, and cliff walkways run along the ridge. On clear days you can see sunrise above the clouds. Azaleas bloom beautifully in spring, and the autumn foliage is also striking. The ridge section has railings but is quite exposed, so those who are afraid of heights should take care. It is about one hour by car from Luotian County town, so driving yourself is recommended.
