Wuzhoulou Municipal Forest Park

Destination Introduction

Wuzhoulou Municipal Forest Park is located at the eastern end of the Yumeng Mountain Range. It lies 18 kilometers north of Miyun District and 84 kilometers from Beijing’s Dongzhimen. It is the first stop along the West Lakeside Scenic Route around Miyun Reservoir, making it extremely convenient to reach.

Wuzhoulou Forest Park covers a total area of 20,500 mu, with a forest coverage rate of 73%. It has long been known for its towering mountains, deep valleys, dense forests, cascading streams and waterfalls, and a rich diversity of forest vegetation. The scenery here shifts with the seasons—verdant in spring, dark-hued in summer, crimson in autumn, and white in winter. From the high mountains, you can overlook Miyun Reservoir, with its myriad islands spread out like a cloud-covered lake, where the surrounding peaks appear small amid the vast misty waters. You can also gaze into the distance at the peaks of the Yumeng Mountain Range, where waterfalls cascade from the clouds, creating an atmosphere of serene wilderness and breathtaking beauty. The ancient Great Wall passes through the area, and its five watchtowers stand proudly, exuding a majestic aura. Throughout the seasons, the vibrant colors of mountain flowers and red leaves offer a constantly changing, colorful landscape.

Nestled between mountains and water, Wuzhoulou offers naturally stunning scenery that perfectly satisfies the desire to return to simplicity and connect with nature. It is an ideal destination for sightseeing, summer retreats, camping and exploration, photography, painting, and literary inspiration. The park’s elevation reaches 1,020 meters and is home to over a thousand plant species, making it an excellent outdoor classroom for nature studies and specimen collection. Other activities available include forest bathing, mountain hiking and exploration, waterfall and stream tours, sunrise watching, wild fruit picking, campfires and camping, water recreation, and enjoying the crimson foliage of autumn.
