We include the official climbing permits, and operate the climb with proper outdoor & travel license both in Singapore & China, not just simply passing you to the local contacts/guides at RiLong.   This is our differentiator is the end-to-end service and fully-guided & supported package , including a mobile kitchen with our own equipment.

Day04: RiLong / DaFeng base camp (trek 6-7hr) (D)

Trek to base camp along the same trail that goes into HaiZiGou (HaiZi gully). It is a gentle ascent from 3250m to reach the first plateau, ZhaiJiePing at 3440m. Take the left path at the split-junction after ChaoShanPing to continue the steep ascent up to base camp.  The base camp is situated at 4300m on a flat ground next to a small stream. From here, you can see the rocky face of DaFeng (camping tents)
Vertical ascend: about 1050m

Day05: DaFeng base camp / summit of DaFeng (trek 5-6hr round trip) (B, D)
Trek up the steppes toward the high-pass directly north of the base camp.
Some parts of the summit route are rocky with slabs of granite. At the high-pass, the trail goes to the reverse slopes, curls right & up to the summit of DaFeng.
Vertical ascend: about 700m

If you are attempting ErFeng, after descending back to DaFeng base camp, you will trek another 5km (about 2hr) to ErFeng base camp.
This part of the trek is relatively flat as you trek along the contour of the 2 mountains.
ErFeng base camp is situated on an open flat ground with several streams running through it. From here, you can see the summit of ErFeng directly north from the base camp.
You may want to have an additional rest day before proceeding to attempt ErFeng.

Day06: ErFeng base camp / summit of ErFeng (trek 6-7hr round trip) (B, D)
The summit route is mostly made-up of rocky slabs & goes from gentle slope to a steep ascend of about 40-45deg. Some sections may require you to climb up on all fours. You will arrive at an open flat area after about 2hr. At this flat area, trek along the base of the rock wall on your left, which curls leftward & continue the climb up to the high-pass. You can see the summit of ErFeng on your slight left. Ropes may be required from this point, depending on the ground conditions & time of the year.
