Hi Michael. We can arrange round-way cable car for you and your mum, but the cable car takes only 10 minutes and it carries you up to the starting point of beautiful views. After getting off the cable car, you will need to walk about 1-2 hours on the steps. It your mom has walking limit, Huangshan is not recommended. If you have any more questions about the tour, please feel free to contact me at nora@chinahighlights.net directly.
Nice day!
The average aititude of Huangshan (aka the Yeallow Mountains, not Huangshan City) is 1,600 meters. The altitude of Huangshan city must be much less high than the mountains. However, I cannot get the exact data.
