The experience

A 2-day introduction to Jingmai Ancient Tea Forest, giving its landscape and local character room to unfold.

Jingmai's old tea forests are a living agricultural heritage system, with tea cultivated beneath a forest canopy and maintained by local communities.

Your route: Jingmai Mountain. Meet and finish at the agreed point in Jingmai Mountain.

This is a suggested itinerary. The order can be adjusted around your arrival time, walking preferences and confirmed access, with a personal quotation before you book.

Your day-by-day journey

Day 1 — Jingmai Ancient Tea Forest: Old tea groves

Morning: Make time for Old tea groves, looking at how the landscape connects with everyday work and the seasons. A hosted conversation or tasting can be requested in advance where a local provider is available.

Suggested overnight base: Jingmai Mountain. The named property and room type are confirmed in your quotation.

Day 2 — Jingmai Ancient Tea Forest: Understorey cultivation

Travel details

Getting here and getting around

The sightseeing plan starts in Jingmai Mountain and finishes in Jingmai Mountain. Agree your arrival station, airport or hotel before booking; these meeting points are not interchangeable. Local attraction and village access is by the road and visitor routes confirmed for your dates.

Keep the visit based around Jingmai Mountain; a transfer from another city is an additional arrangement. Exact pick-up times, return arrangements and any internal scenic transport are confirmed before departure.

When to travel

The cooler dry-season months are a useful starting point for village and forest travel. Conditions vary between river valleys, tea slopes and higher settlements. Harvest visits and tastings require advance arrangements; a tea-country journey is possible without taking part in production.

Stays and meals

This 2-day plan allows for 1 overnight stay: Jingmai Mountain (1 night). These are suggested bases, subject to the agreed route and property availability.

Choose your preferred accommodation style and room configuration before a quotation is prepared. Breakfasts, other meals and dietary requests are itemised, with time for local food where it fits the day.

What your quotation covers

Ask for an itemised quotation covering the guide, agreed transfers, admission tickets, scenic-area transport, accommodation and meals you want included. A suggested experience is confirmed only when it appears in the final proposal.

International and onward travel, optional activities, personal purchases and unlisted meals are additional unless expressly included. Your dates, group size, room choices and service level determine the quotation; no fixed package price is implied.

Useful to know before you go

  • Jingmai Ancient Tea Forest: Use established village paths and a grower or local guide; tree climbing and picking are not assumed activities.
