Is it cold to travel to Qinghai in April?

Wear thin sweaters and down jackets when traveling to Qinghai Lake in April.

Qinghai Lake is a plateau continental climate, with abundant sunshine and strong sunshine. Leng Xia is cool in winter, with short warm season and long cold season. There is a strong wind and sandstorm in spring, with little rainfall, the same season of rain and heat, and distinct wet and dry seasons.

In April, the historical temperature of Qinghai Lake was between-1℃ and 24℃, and the weather was generally cold. The temperature difference between day and night is very large, with the average temperature of 24℃ during the day and-1℃ at night.

Therefore, you can wear thin sweaters, shirts and other light clothes during the day, and you need to carry heavy and warm clothes such as down jackets, cotton-padded clothes and fur coats at night to prevent colds. In addition, hats, gloves and masks are also indispensable.

It is easy to lack oxygen when going to places with high altitude in Qinghai Lake. This is because the air pressure decreases with the elevation, resulting in thin air, and the pressure and content of oxygen also decrease.

Therefore, it is best not to go directly to areas with high altitude, and try to control the daily rising height at about 400 to 600 meters. Every time you reach a new height, you have to rest for a few days, so that your physical strength can gradually recover and adapt to the altitude hypoxia environment, which can reduce the degree of altitude sickness.
