There is a family-friendly hiking trail on Lupoling in Mentougou District, Beijing. Once you reach the summit, you can overlook the magnificent Yubingchuan Glacier, the historic railway train and the red-roofed cottages. You can stay here for as long as you like to enjoy the beautiful sunset. There are also plenty of free parking spaces. Just park your car beside the basketball court and the hiking entrance is between the two red houses opposite. One-day tour route: Lupoling, Lao Wang's Pancake Shop, Liuchiqu Village, Jinyuyuan Glaze and Ceramic Cultural and Creative Park. In the morning, head to Lupoling for hiking and sightseeing (1-2 hours). For lunch, visit Lao Wang's Pancake Shop (business hours: 05:00-15:00). In the afternoon, visit Liuchiqu Village to explore the traditional village (2-3 hours). Tips: It's windy on the mountain, so be sure to keep warm and protect yourself from the wind. There is a 200-meter path beside the public toilet opposite Wangzhangzi with a very retro stream. If you have enough time, you can go there for a photo shoot. If you have the means, bring some cat food or pet snacks. When you come down the mountain, there are many stray cats gathering at the foot of the mountain.
