Altay Four Days Three Nights Travel Guide | Hemu & Baihaba

Just returned from Altay, the snow-covered Altay is like a fairy tale world, truly beautiful 🥹. It's the off-season with fewer people and friendly accommodation prices. You can take two days off plus the weekend to make this trip! The detailed itinerary for four days and three nights is as follows: Day 1 Chengdu Tianfu✈️Altay Snow City Airport (Spring Airlines 11:40-16:00), land and rent a car to drive to Hemu Village, taking the Burqin-Tieka route. We didn't choose the Ahe Highway because it takes longer and is prone to road closures. 🛖 Stay at Twelve Windows Guesthouse in Hemu Village Day 2 Morning tour of Hemu Village 📸, in the afternoon went to Crazy Growth Café, their cakes and bread are quite delicious. At six o'clock, go to the sunset viewing platform to watch the sunset and blue hour. 🛖 Stay at Yixi Yunhaijian in Hemu Village Day 3 Depart from Hemu Village in the morning to Baihaba Village, stopping at Kanas, Xiaohu Checkpoint, and Fairy Bay for photos 📸, arrive at Baihaba Village in the afternoon for sightseeing. 🛖 Stay at Baihaba Mountain and Sea Homestay Resort Day 4 Get up early for breakfast, spend some time at the homestay café, depart for the airport at noon, about 4 hours. If time permits, you can have a meal in Burqin. Altay Snow City Airport✈️Chengdu Tianfu (Spring Airlines 18:40-22:25) 🎫 Tickets: 100 RMB/person, valid for three days, applicable for Hemu, Kanas, and Baihaba. 🚗 Car rental: You must rent a four-wheel drive with snow tires to enter Hemu Village. We rented a Li Xiang L7 from Shenzhou, 1800 RMB for 4 days (including full insurance). Only self-driving vehicles can enter Hemu Village. No need to worry about vehicle reservation; we arrived at 21:40 and went directly to the visitor center to make a reservation to enter the village.
