High-speed G‑series trains run from Shanghai Hongqiao to stations serving the Jiuhuashan area (most commonly Jiuhuashan or Chizhou). The fastest G‑trains use the Beijing–Shanghai High-Speed Railway from Shanghai to Nanjing at 300–350 km/h (186–217 mph), then continue on the Nanjing–Anqing corridor toward Chizhou/Jiuhuashan at 200–250 km/h (124–155 mph). End-to-end times are typically about 3 hours to 3 hours 30 minutes, with limited stops such as Suzhou, Wuxi, Nanjing South, and Wuhu/Tongling. D‑series high-speed services also cover this route at up to 200–250 km/h (124–155 mph) but make more intermediate stops and can take around 4 hours to 5 hours 30 minutes; some departures involve an easy same-station change at Nanjing South. Conventional Z/T/K trains to Chizhou run at roughly 120–160 km/h (75–99 mph) and take about 7–10 hours, offering a budget option and overnight timings. Onboard, G‑series trains provide Second, First, and Business Class seating, power outlets, and trolley service; D‑series trains usually offer Second and First Class with similar facilities. For the quickest arrival near the scenic area, choose a G‑series train to Jiuhuashan or Chizhou, then continue by local bus (about 30–60 minutes) to the park entrances.
