Choose a special restaurant by the Luding Bridge near the Dadu River in the county. After lunch, visit the Luding Bridge, a national key cultural relic, which is close at hand. Walk on the swaying iron cable bridge to an opposite temple to see the traces of the Red Army crossing the bridge in the past. One hour's tour is more than enough. Then drive to Moxi Town, change cars in the scenic area, enter Hailuogou Scenic Area, visit Gongga Mountain and see the famous low-altitude glaciers.
Main attractions:
Luding Bridge: This bridge, which is famous all over the world because of a battle and an article "Flying Luding Bridge" in that year, actually attracted the attention of Longting as early as the Qing Dynasty. Because of the barrier between the Dadu River and Tibet, it has been one of the geographical boundaries between China and Tibet since ancient times. It crossed the Dadu River westbound and soon arrived in Tibetan areas, so as early as the 44th year of Qing Emperor Kangxi (in 175, the Qing Dynasty).
Hailuogou: The mouth of Hailuogou is Moxi Town, which is one of the best places to see the main peak of Gongga Snow Mountain, which is 7,556 meters, making it the 11th highest peak in the world. The No.1 glacier at the foot of the mountain is the most famous, with the ice thickness of 15 to 3 meters, which is very spectacular.
transportation: there is a shuttle bus in Hailuogou Scenic Area to take tourists to Camp No.1 to Camp No.3 for accommodation, and there is a cable car on the mountain to take tourists up the mountain. The price is about 16 yuan.
Accommodation: There are three main camps in Gongga Mountain-Hailuogou Scenic Area: Camp No.1, located at the mouth of Dagan Yangou, about 11 kilometers away from Moxi; Camp No.2, located near Reshuigou Waterfall, 6 kilometers away from Camp No.1, has many scenic spots around, so you can visit forests and hot springs nearby. Camp 3 is located about 2 kilometers from the glacier observation deck. You can also live in moxi town.
The next day
Hailuogou-Luding (Return to National Highway 318-Kangding (49 km-Zheduo Mountain (35 km, with an altitude of 4,298 meters)-xinduqiao (4 km
From Kangding City to xinduqiao, a photography paradise, you need to pass through a Zheduo Mountain pass with an altitude of 4,298 meters, which is also the first crossing along the way. However, for self-driving riders who have just entered the Tibetan area, it is suggested to stay in xinduqiao for one night. On the one hand, the scenery from Zheduo Mountain to xinduqiao is not bad, and they can stop and shoot while walking. On the other hand, they should slow down and give the body who has just entered the Tibetan area a short adaptation period, and there are more beautiful scenery waiting for you.
Main attractions:
xinduqiao: Then go to xinduqiao, and you can arrive in xinduqiao before noon. This place is called a photography paradise, and the scenery is really good. Moreover, there are a lot of donkey friends from all over the country, most of whom are color friends carrying long guns and short guns. Personally, I think it is really worth staying here, although the most beautiful season here is autumn. The scenery between Zheduo Mountain and xinduqiao town is really spectacular, and it is known as the "photographer's paradise". Grassland, streams, mountains, Tibetan villages, Bai Yang and magical light are all excellent subjects for photography. Special reminder: In xinduqiao, if you are lucky, you can see king of the hill, the main peak like Gongga Pyramid.
On the third day
xinduqiao (2km-Gaoershan Pass (4412m 5km above sea level-Yajiang Pass (3km-Jianziwan Pass (4659m-4km-135km above sea level-Bingzhan (1km-Kazilashan Pass (4718m-6km- The Maoya Prairie in Litang is about 5, square kilometers wide, with an average elevation of more than 4, meters. However, the slope of the mountain is relatively gentle, with Tibetan pastures along the way, and finally it reaches Litang, which is known as the "high city in the world" with an altitude of 4,14 meters.
Main attractions:
Gongga Snow Mountain: When we leave xinduqiao for more than ten kilometers and haven't reached the pass of Gaoersi Mountain at an altitude of 4,412 meters, there is a path by the roadside leading to the foot of Heishi Mountain, then turn into the path and drive straight to the hill opposite the main peak of Gongga Snow Mountain. This is one of the best places to watch Gongga Snow Mountain, and it is also the closest to the highway. When we stand under the Gongga Snow Mountain, the Gongga Mountain at an altitude of 7556 meters and dozens of surrounding snow peaks are surrounded by 12 degrees, which is breathtaking.
Kangba Hanzi Village and Guogangding: In Xi 'eluo Township, to the east of Asaza, mountains surround Guogangding of Xiangrui Shengji, or bold and unrestrained or beautiful mountains, and worship Guogang together. There are also two lakes: Riyue Lake.
Genie Mountain: The scenic spot is located in Reke Township, Litang County, Kangnan, with Genie Mountain at an altitude of 624 meters as the center. Mount Ganeshan, which is covered with snow all year round, is the third highest mountain in Sichuan, and it is also a famous sacred mountain in Tibetan areas. There are many pilgrims from all over Tibetan areas. The construction of the Ganielenggu Temple has a long history, and there are many cultural relics in the temple.
Special reminder: Litang is known as the highest town in the world at an altitude of over 4, meters. Although there are flocks of cattle and sheep, flowers and plants all over the mountains, and the scenery is good, the mountain reaction usually keeps some donkey friends awake all night. Prepare oxygen cylinders as early as possible, and pay attention to less exercise and early rest. If you really can't stand it, you can catch a 3-hour journey to Batang for accommodation.
Day 4
Litang (83km-Haizishan (4,69m, 112km-Batang (45km-Hot Spring (55km-Zongla Mountain (4,17m, 7km-Mangkang), the whole journey is 276km.
In Batang, I visited the ruins of the Catholic Church, which are still well preserved. Crossing the Jinsha River, along the way, you can see the natural scenery of the Jinsha River Gorge with high mountains, deep valleys and turbulent rapids. After crossing the bridge, you will enter Tibet, and the car will start to travel in the Sanjiang Basin, and also enter the more difficult journey of the Sichuan-Tibet Highway. At the intersection of Yunnan-Tibet and Sichuan-Tibet Highway-Mangkang, the first county town after entering Tibet, after eating, I found Bashan Mountain, Lawu Mountain and Dongdashan Pass at an altitude of 5,8 meters, and arrived at Zuogong. The road conditions were not very good, and the altitude was high, so people often felt "upset".
Main attractions:
Batang: Batang is located on the Jinsha River, where the Tibetan population is the majority. The Tibetan opera and folk songs and dances here are very famous. Batang town experienced an earthquake in 1986, which caused a small number of casualties, but the houses were seriously damaged. Most of the houses in the town had to be rebuilt. The new buildings kept Batang with strong Tibetan characteristics, and the clean streets here were also refreshing.
Mangkang: Mangkang is the first town after Sichuan-Tibet South Road entered Tibet, which is also the meeting point with Yunnan-Tibet Highway. The main shops in Mangkang town are all on a main street, and this town has little material supply except as a traffic point. You can stay at Mangkang County Guest House. Special reminder:

At the same time, you can enjoy the mountain scenery of weathered rocks, and watch the mysterious celestial burial platform, carved Buddha statues and six-character proverbs in Tibetan areas when crossing Dora Mountain. On the way down the mountain, the virgin forest and pastoral scenery complement each other and the scenery is pleasant. This day's trip is a test for everyone. In Dongdashan, the temperature in Bangda grassland can reach below ℃. However, the temperature on the banks of Lancang River and Nujiang River is about 2℃. The altitude difference experienced in one day can be nearly 25 meters.

Main attractions:
Ranwu Lake: Surrounded by snow-capped mountains, Ranwu Lake town is next to Ranwu Highway, and there is a long line of snow-capped mountains in the north of the lake. Many glaciers extend from the mountains to the lake, and the lake is more than 3,8 meters above sea level. The island in the lake is covered with spruce, which echoes the snow-capped mountains from a distance. When the sun rises, the crystal clear green lake becomes deep blue, like a mirror reflecting snow-capped mountains, white clouds and surrounding forests on the lake.
