Othe Ways to Huangshan
Apart from the railway and highway trunk lines leading to the major large and middle-sized cities in Anhui and adjacent provinces, Hefei-Huangshan top-grade highway and Hefei-Wuhu expressway have been put into service. And the construction of Hefei-Hangzhou expressway and Wuhu Yangtze River Bridge is well under way. Their successful completion, and with the addition of newly operated 45/46 bi-directional Fuzhou-Beijing train (with a stopover at Huangshan), 219/220 bi-directional Huangshan-Shanghai train and the special Huangshan-Nanjing holiday sleeper train, as well as with the original railway runs, the land transportation to Huangshan Mountain will be greatly improved.
By Train
Instead of flying into Huangshan, a much cheaper and easier way is taking an overnight sleeper train from Shanghai. The ride takes about 10 hours including the stops in between. Fares depend on accommodation and bunk position. The price for a soft sleeper is about USD33.
By Bus
From Tunxi bus station there are bus lines to many destinations in east China, reflecting a trend in rapid growth of road-transportation system. There are daily departures to cities such as Hangzhou (Zhejiang), Wuhan (Hunan), Nanjing (Jiangsu) and Shanghai.
Train stations and bus stations are the most crowded places in China. We strongly recommend you (foreign tourists) take a flight to Huangshan instead of a train or a bus.
Cable Car in the Mountain Huangshan
Cable cars, which can save some time and effort, are a must while hiking Huangshan unless you're a serious hiker and have a few days to explore. But then again, diehard hikers would laugh at Huangshan's height and easy climb. The cable cars add to the theme park feel. Of course what you see from a cablecar might be very different from what you see hike from below - either way has its merits.
There are 3 cable routes in Hsuangshan. See the "Map of the Cable Car Routes in HUangshan. Fare is 81 RMB one way. The cable cars on the western and eastern routes are commonly used.

 In Yellow Mountain, What you see from a cable car can be still magnificent. |
The cable car on the western route, called Yuping Telpher, is located at the Mercy Light Temple (Ciguangge Zhan), going about 2.012 metres up to the Jade Screen Peak (Yuping Feng), only a 10-minute ride. After that, you need to hike about 6 hours to either Xi Hai or Bei Hai, where most of the hotels are located. See Huangshan Hotels
The cable car on the eastern route, called Yungu Telpher between Yungu Temple and White Goose Peak (about 2,804 metres), however, is a longer one, and it will bring you closer to Bei Hai. You will only need to hike for an hour, but you will miss most of the major sights in Huangshan.
