Previous post: The administration has closed access to this crag due to the fear of rocks falling on tourists from climbing. Apparently this happened a year ago. It is uncertain if this crag will reopen, but the hike is still good.

There is a clear sign at the entrance of the moon hill hike that no climbing is permitted. Heavy fines apply if caught!

This closure may change, but best to double check with local Chinese climbers at the bars Rock Abond and Rusty Bolt.
