The part of the climb between the Archway to Immortality to the South Gate to Heaven is the hardest part of the climb up Tai Shan. Take your time, take plenty of rest stops and try and get in a rhythm whilst climbing. I actually found it worse coming back down again as all the steps affected my knees but they didn't ache afterwards.

The last cable car down the mountain is at 1800. If you miss it you will have to walk down to the halfway point. This is important to know if you have a hotel booked in Tai'An.
Walking down the mountain in the dark is not a good experience
