Mount Siguniang in Western Sichuan | The first snow of autumn at Mount Siguniang

🚗Transportation: 4h self-drive from Chengdu, there is a direct bus to Mount Siguniang Scenic Area from Chadianzi Bus Station, the journey takes 5h and the ticket price is 110 yuan 🏨Accommodation: In the town of Siguniang 🎫Ticket: 70 yuan + bus 20 yuan 🕐Opening Hours: Opens at 08:00, stops admitting visitors at 15:00, and the last bus out of the scenic area is at 18:00 · 📝Scenic Area Overview: Changping Valley is 29 kilometers long, you need to take a bus to Lama Temple first, then ride a horse or hike about 7 kilometers. Along the way, there are 27 viewing spots. Compared to Shuangqiao Valley, this place is more niche and primitive, and you are greeted by the Yaomei Peak all the way, which is really beautiful. It is an ideal place for rock climbing and ice climbing, and also an important camp for climbing the third and fourth peaks. You can also hike through to Bipeng Valley · Compared to horse riding, hiking allows you to see more beautiful scenery Replenish energy in time + take proper rest As a hiking novice, I find the difficulty is really not that high You must insist on walking to Muliuzi‼️ Otherwise, it's like you never came‼️ Muliuzi is the essence of the entire Shuangping Valley‼️ It's as good as Switzerland‼️ Spend more time in Muliuzi‼️ Don't stop too much on the way‼️ · 🚩Tour Route⚠️Map attached at the end Arrive at 【Shuangping Valley Scenic Area】 at 8:00 Bus 10min to 【Lama Temple】 Plank walkway 20min to 【Insect Foot Waterfall】 Plank walkway 25min to 【Dead Tree Beach】 Plank or horse trail hike 1h to 【Ganhaizi】 Horse trail hike 40min to 【Red Stone Beach】 Horse trail hike 20min to 【Muliuzi】 Ride a horse or hike 2.5h back to 【Lama Temple】 Take the bus back to the entrance of the scenic area · 📌Little Tips: ❶Be sure to wear comfortable clothes and shoes, pay attention to warmth and sun protection, bring a hiking stick ❷The altitude is 3500m, you can prepare anti-altitude sickness medicine, but don't worry too much ❸Hiking back and forth + rest on the way takes about 7h, start early to avoid missing the last bus out of the scenic area ❹You can walk on both the plank walkway and horse trail, the plank walkway can go as far as Ganhaizi ❺Horse riding is more tiring than hiking, long-time horse riding causes back pain, leg pain, and butt pain, I would choose hiking without hesitation ❻The round trip horse ride from the entrance of the scenic area to Muliuzi costs 400 yuan, it will be cheaper if you ride part of the way, negotiate with the horseman ❼Bring dry food, high-calorie items like chocolate, cola, etc. ❽The weather is changeable, bring a raincoat
