I had the opportunity to visit Yellow Mt the last weekend in May and the weather was perfect.

We did Lotus Peak on Sat and the crowds were very large so I would not go in the summer as it must be packed. We spent the night and did the Grand Canyon of the Clouds. This was spectacular and although it is a very long climb down and back up it is the most beautiful part of the park and had very few people compared to the rest.

To me this is an absolute must so try to go when it is open as I understand in the winter part of this area is closed. It helps to be fit if you want to do all of this hiking especially since you are at some altitude which makes it harder. I have been to China many times and this is the most beautiful natural scenery I have seen in the country. Reminded me of our National Parks in the US, just a lot more people. Find a way to add this to your itinerary.
