Terms of Use

Last updated: September 7, 2026

Acceptance of These Terms

By browsing Chinese Mountains (www.chinese-mountains.com) you agree to these Terms of Use. If you do not agree, please stop using the site. We may update these terms occasionally; the current version always lives at this URL, and continued use after an update means you accept the revised terms.

Informational Use Only — Verify Before You Travel

Chinese Mountains is an independent editorial guide, not a travel agency, ticket seller, or official park operator. Ticket prices, cable-car fares, opening hours, trail status, and transport details change frequently and without notice. Always confirm current conditions and prices with the official scenic-area channels before you travel. We mark every price with a "last verified" date for exactly this reason.

Mountain hiking involves real risks: altitude sickness, weather changes, and exposed terrain. Our difficulty ratings are editorial opinions for trip planning, not professional safety assessments. You are responsible for your own preparation, permits, insurance, and judgment in the mountains.

Copyright & Permitted Use

Unless stated otherwise, the text, data compilations, rankings, and tools on this site are owned by Chinese Mountains and may not be republished wholesale without permission. You are welcome to quote short passages with a visible link back to the source page — teachers, students, and journalists especially. Photographs remain the property of their credited authors; image credits appear on each photo, and reuse requires the credit holder's consent.

External Links

We link to authoritative sources such as the UNESCO World Heritage Centre and official scenic-area notices, and occasionally to third-party resources we find genuinely useful. We do not control those sites, receive commission from any link on this site, and are not responsible for their content, accuracy, or availability.

Limitation of Liability

The site is provided "as is" and "as available." To the maximum extent permitted by law, Chinese Mountains is not liable for any loss, injury, expense, or disappointment arising from decisions you make based on our content — including travel disruptions, price changes, trail closures, or booking issues with third parties.
