I can't go to Switzerland and New Zealand, but fortunately there is a big Xinjiang in my motherland.

/kloc-I went to Kanas for sightseeing with my sister-in-law 0/0 years ago and didn't leave too many rich memories.

It never occurred to me that I could get to know it again through "exploration" this time.

During the special epidemic period, Peng Yong was brought into Kanas alone for two reasons:

1. It is more meaningful for children to grow up and follow their mother into the jungle valley and do various physical exercises outdoors than to enjoy holidays in hotels;

2. Outdoor activities have certain risks and need to be carried out by professional institutions. From the formulation of the route to the control of the security team, I have to do it myself so that I can share it with you.

As a "coffee mom"+entrepreneur who has traveled to 50 countries, I will have a more unique "mother-in-law perspective" than other travel or educational institutions when making parent-child travel plans.

This cool and quiet adventure is suitable for both "physique" and children over 6 years old. Perhaps, it is the "first stop of outdoor travel" for you and your family and friends.

Kanas "secret corner"

A unique outdoor adventure

I sum up Kanas' opening mode into three types: sightseeing ducks, golden autumn photography group and this outdoor adventure nature camp.

The original camp period of 5 days and 4 nights was delayed by 1 day because the nucleic acid did not meet the local template. After the trip was "compressed", it turned out to be an "outdoor travel harvest" and I can't wait to share it with you.

Seeing the words "outdoor" and "adventure" in the cross-country race, some friends who thought they were panting after running for 2 minutes began to feel dejected. Can I control it? How old is the child to play? Is it safe?

(Click to watch the video of physical fitness requirements and safety guarantee of the project)

In the above video, the route R&D team answered these concerns and doubts.

The whole project is operated by the top outdoor organizations in China, all of which are set according to the physical fitness standards of ordinary people, but the safety measures have reached the level of professional competitions. We just need to relax, follow the coach, play, take pictures and take the baby for a walk. ...

The reception organization recommends children over 8 years old to participate. Is it suitable for children under this age? My family has been "wild" since childhood. At the age of three and a half, she followed me on foot in the desert and was relatively independent. I believe that at the age of six, she can successfully accept the challenge.

▲ Peer partners affirmed that Niu Niu and I grew up together.

■ "Green Jelly" kayak, the only one ■

The legend of Kanas Lake Monster adds a mystery to the original scenery of Fairy Lake, which makes people yearn for it.

The traditional sightseeing of Kanas Lake is to take a tour bus up the mountain and get off to take pictures. Or squeeze into a cruise ship to visit here.

Canoeing on Kanas Lake is the highlight of the whole journey, and it is also our exclusive experience, so I will share it with you in front.

You can imagine the picture of this "fairyland on earth": at sunrise, under the thick morning fog, only a few people are boating on the lake, enjoying a piece of lakes and mountains and touching the true content of "green jelly" at zero distance.

Peng and I have experienced kayaking, small sailing and other sea sports in Dapeng, Shenzhen, and are eager to play with water. However, it is always uncomfortable to get wet by salty sea water. We need to pay attention to whether other clippers entering and leaving the bay will hit the yacht.

▲ My kayaking time with Niu Niu in Dapeng, Shenzhen.

Canoeing in Kanas Lake is more comprehensive. Generally, the coach will start the demonstration rowing at around 7:30, and make sure to leave before 10:00, without worrying about the big ship entering the provocative waves, and the lake is relatively calm.

This time, I used a two-person ocean-going boat, and my legs were wet, but the lake was cold and a little comfortable to play with.

Old mother still suggests that you prepare quick-drying pants in advance to avoid catching cold in your legs.

For people who have never experienced kayaking, they may be afraid at first, fearing that they can't swim and lack physical strength.

The coach said that kayaking takes only 45 minutes for a one-way turn-back route of about 2 kilometers, but the whole time is extended to 1.5 hours, which can ensure that everyone can slow down and enjoy the beautiful scenery of Kanas Lake very comfortably.

▲ The crystal clear Kanas Lake

If you are still worried about yourself or your children's physical strength, you can also row to 1 km, float on the lake to enjoy the sunrise, and then turn back. How far you row depends entirely on the individual, but what remains unchanged is the lake view at sunrise. Don't worry about rowing!

▲ "Four eggs" breakfast to replenish energy

■ 10 km forest hiking, mixed with sadness and joy ■

If the kayaking experience is a cup of sweet cappuccino, then walking in the forest is just hand-made coffee, which needs to be savored.

▲ When I get home, I still miss this tearful hike.

This time, taking the route of adult 10 km (5 km for children according to the standard), physical fitness may start to flinch. Don't worry, listen to me in detail.

If you disassemble 10 km, you can get three parts: one end, one tail and the middle.

The head and tail part * * * occupies 5 kilometers, and there are neatly trimmed wooden plank roads, flat tractor roads or grasslands, which can pass off-road vehicles smoothly, and it is also convenient for everyone to walk.

Not to mention the scenery, Kanas River in the left hand and Snow Mountain in the right hand, because of the ever-changing scenery and the coach who is ready to shoot a big film at any time, at first our attention is focused on enjoying the scenery and having fun, so we won't feel tired.

But the 5 kilometers in the middle is really challenging, because to cross a virgin forest, the road surface is narrow and rugged, and it really feels like an adventure.

▲ The old mother instantly "Ye Bei" on her upper body, climbing mountains and wading.

It was stormy that day and the battle was full. Peng Zaiyong is also a child. I cried several times, and I felt sorry for her. Although the recurrence of old joint diseases made me want to give up many times, I still encouraged her to go on.

When the disobedient shoes came to the moment when the heel tilted, the physical and mental impact made me extremely collapse. Looking back now, I really don't know how I persisted at that time.

▲ Niu Niu's back crying alone

Fortunately, teammates helped each other on the way, and the coach picked up Peng, who was tired and paralyzed, and went forward bravely. Nearly three hours later, he walked out of the forest and finally ushered in a bright sky.

When we met Huahai grassland, we thought the challenge was successful, but we had to go 1 hour. Despair with no end in sight is really a test of people's willpower.

To tell the truth, this five kilometers is difficult, but it is also an opportunity for self-growth and self-dialogue. If there is any reason for me to try hiking again, it is to enjoy the magnificent scenery enjoyed by the cross-country running gods here.

I can't forget a sentence I lost, and I also expressed my heart: I seem to be still dreaming.

■ orienteering, skill get ■

Orienteering is an activity of physical challenge and mental competition, which can improve the skills of map recognition and orientation, and enhance self-navigation and adaptability.

The special feature of the whole route is that it refers to the route of the world adventure cross-country race that year. My mother punched in at a fixed point through contour lines and terrain discrimination, and felt that she had returned to the geography class in her student days.

After systematic training, everyone is equipped with a locator equipped with SOS distress system; If there is an emergency, you can also call the coach for help at the first time, which is more reliable and professional.

Being able to do this, I almost thought I had strayed into the set of Survival in the Wilderness.

■ Seek treasure in harmony and visit others ■

"God's Private Territory", "The Tribe in the Cloud" and "The Most Beautiful Village in China" ... The famous harmony is not mysterious. Countless people have been here, but it is rare that it can keep itself and its true colors.

At first, I was a little excited about riding a mountain bike in Harmony Village, but I was suddenly glad that my trip was postponed and I didn't attend. I really don't think I can handle it.

Later, through the coach's dictation and picture display, I can feel the fun more and more.

▲ On the day we met our teammates, the coach told us an experience.

Harmony village is very small, the whole process is grass and roads, and there is no climbing at all, so the whole process is very easy.

From the village to the coffee shop and then to the post office, riding a bike is faster, more energy-saving, more interesting and can feel the beauty of the whole forest.

There are three kinds of mountain bikes to choose from: wide-wheeled electric moped, electric moped with back seat and children's bike.

However, for Peng, who is not up to standard but extremely tall, her long legs are nowhere to be placed in the back seat.

Harmony village has beautiful bridges and flowing water, and the smoke from kitchen chimneys is curling up. The ancient and mysterious Tuwa people live here. We walked into a scattered village composed of log cabins and visited an ingenious Tuva old man.

The old man's home faces the village where tourists gather across the river. He still insists on his own pace of life and pays attention to the continuation of Tuva culture.

In Tuva, the old people, teachers teach fur skis on the spot, and we also chop wood, make milk bumps and milk wine with the locals, and enjoy delicious strips.

■ Don't miss the white water rafting in New Zealand ■

Because I travel all the year round and take care of my baby without my family for the first time, I attach great importance to the safety measures of outdoor projects.

Let's have a look at our clothes. Outdoor rafting in New Zealand is the same life jacket, 360-degree waterproof, and the coach will check each member's equipment before departure, which is very reassuring.

White water rafting is a very common experience project in the world. You just have to follow the pilot's instructions and paddle back and forth. The direction of the ship is completely controlled by professionals, so don't worry about it.

Kanas River includes all six levels of whitewater rafting, which is rare in the world. However, the R&D team only developed two drifting routes suitable for the general public, and the upper limit of difficulty reached level 4, which is safe.

1.5 hours is more like an exciting tour than a physical challenge.

▲ Niu Niu said that white water rafting is her favorite project.

Move the long dining table to the birch forest

A well-designed dining experience

How professional is an outdoor organization that strives to be the first in the country in food arrangement? Speaking out, even I, who has been a product manager for 10 years, am a little ashamed.

The SOP, bill of materials, material storage requirements and shooting requirements of the perfect card point were not left.

What impressed me most during the whole trip was this picnic in the Woods. It was the first time that Niuniu and I had dinner together with friends from the same industry.

The elaborate long dining table is filled with local delicacies: pepper chicken, hand-grabbed rice, hand-grabbed mutton and various seasonal vegetables. Let's eat!

Stay away from the crowd, overlook the snow scene, listen to the running water, shake the red wine glass with Kazakh local music and enjoy the quiet beauty of the world.

▲ It will still be a camp in the future.

Baihaba Village is located in the northwest of Hemu Village 120km, which is the dividing line between China and Kazakhstan, and is also called "the first village in the northwest". China Geography also rated this village as one of the eight most beautiful towns in China.

On the way to Baihaba, we met the common "cattle traffic jam" and "sheep traffic jam" in Xinjiang.

Lunch was enjoyed in a spire hut, and I had the feeling of traveling and dining in Europe. Of course, I ate local specialties!

We also unexpectedly found that there is also a good homestay experience here, and the design is Russian style. If you have enough holidays, it is not bad to stay here 1 night.

Mode of arrival+transit accommodation

Kanas Lake, located in the northwest corner of China-Brzin, belongs to Altay region.

If you are coming to Xinjiang for the first time, it is recommended to choose Urumqi to go back and forth and feel the excitement of Urumqi; If you want to be more convenient and save time, it is recommended to go back and forth to Xi' an, and it will take 2 hours to get there directly. (Because of the epidemic, Xi 'an's flight was grounded this year, so we chose Urumqi to go back and forth. )

(Click to watch Kanas flight guide video)

It's 10: 30 in July and August in Xinjiang, and the daylight hours are infinitely increased. We flew to Urumqi in the afternoon, and there was still half a day to punch in and eat local food to satisfy our mother and son!

Tips for transfer and check-in:

① Super 8 hotel chain, 5 minutes to the airport, economical and clean.

② Hantang Hotel, located in the new district, less than 30 minutes' drive from the airport; Because of the long and narrow terrain in Urumqi, it is best to choose hotels in this area for comfortable experience.

Looking forward to seeing you again.

Irreplaceable design and implementation

There are many remarkable places in this experience, such as astronomical science popularization, hot air balloon experience, frontier fortress history education, camping ... as a surprise egg, leave it to everyone to feel for themselves.

The scenery in Xinjiang can be said to be comparable to New Zealand, Switzerland and the Rocky Mountains, and the transportation and accommodation have improved in recent years (the level of routes and vehicles is much better than that of 10 years ago).

The motherland is now paying more attention to Xinjiang, which has promoted the promotion of soft and hard services here and made everyone have more expectations.

▲ The most beautiful scenery in Xinjiang is on the road.

This article is travel notes and raiders, but these places can't be reached by chartered cars or brave hearts.

Serialization and deepening of gameplay, professionalism and security of outdoor activities need to be checked at all levels, and it is king to find a trustworthy executive body and a top landing team.
