Yulong Snow Mountain Travel Guide+Tickets

Yulong Snow Mountain, located near Lijiang, is a sacred mountain with different landscapes in different seasons. You can also ski here and experience extraordinary excitement and competitive enjoyment. Let's share with you the raiders of the one-day tour of Yulong Snow Mountain.

Some people say that Lijiang is a feeling, and some people say that Lijiang is an unattainable emotional sustenance. Lijiang is free, but the Yulong Snow Mountain in Lijiang is mysterious, because in the eyes of Naxi people, Yulong Snow Mountain is the patron saint. Every visitor to Lijiang will climb this magnificent mountain, experience exotic customs and feel the charm of glaciers.

Yulong Snow Mountain is reflected in Qingxi Reservoir.

Yulong Snow Mountain is located in Yulong County, Lijiang. Like Old Town of Lijiang, it is a symbol of Lijiang. It is located in the north of Lijiang City, and belongs to the national 5A-level scenic spot. Its most beautiful alpine and snowy landscape is over 4,000 meters above sea level, with the highest elevation of 5,596 meters. It is said that there are thirteen peaks in the Snow Mountain, and the snow does not melt all the year round. The thirteen peaks of the Snow Mountain can only be seen at one scenic spot on the way to Ninglang, which is generally invisible to tourists who don't go to Ninglang.

Yulong Snow Mountain is about 22km away from the old town of Lijiang and about 16km away from Shuhe Ancient Town, so visitors to Lijiang can choose to live in Dayan Ancient Town or Shuhe Ancient Town, which is very convenient to go to the Snow Mountain.

Dayan Ancient City is what we usually call Old Town of Lijiang, which is relatively commercialized, but the inn environment is good and each has its own characteristics. Shuhe ancient town is close to the snow-capped mountains, much smaller than the ancient city, but it has the same style and is relatively quiet. Visitors who like quiet can choose to stay in the inn of Shuhe Ancient Town, which may make them feel more comfortable.

What season can I enjoy the beauty of the snow-capped mountains best?

The best viewing time of Yulong Snow Mountain is 165438+ 10 to March of the following year, because this is the time when the snow is the most abundant and the snow is the most beautiful. June to mid-June 10 is the rainy season in Lijiang, and there will be a lot of precipitation. Rain will not affect climbing the snow-capped mountains by cableway, but it will cool down, so visitors to Lijiang should remember to bring their coats to keep warm, because it is winter in Lijiang and summer when the sun comes out, so they should pay attention to sun protection measures. Sunrise in the east and rain in the west can often be seen, and if you are lucky, you can also see rainbows. You can't see snow when you go to Yulong Snow Mountain in July and August, but you can see snow in September and1October, but not much, depending on the actual weather.

The most classic tourist route of Yulong Snow Mountain

Yulong Snow Mountain Scenic Area Road Map

On the way to Yulong Snow Mountain, you can pass Shuhe Ancient Town, World Cultural Heritage Park, Yufeng Temple, Baisha Mural, Yushuizhai, Dongba Temple, Ganhaizi, Baishuihe, Yunshanping and Maoniuping. Among these scenic spots, there are also 4A-level scenic spots, such as Yushui Village at the foot of the Snow Mountain. The water is clear and there are many rainbow trout to watch. It is also one of the scenic spots worth visiting when you are free.

There are three ropeways in the snow mountain, namely:

The cableway of Glacier Park, with a total length of 3km and a six-person sealed hanging basket, rises from 3,356m to 4,506m above sea level, stepping on the snow, and the one-way journey takes about15-20min;

The ropeway in Maoniuping is 1.2km long, with double hanging baskets, reaching an altitude of 3,500 m, and it takes only 10 minute for one trip, so you can enjoy the snow-capped mountains at close range.

Yunshanping cableway, with a total length of 1km, is a double hanging basket type with a height of 3000 meters, and it takes only 10 minutes for one trip, overlooking the snow-capped mountains.

Recommended route to visit the snow-capped mountains

Because the main way to visit the Jade Dragon Snow Mountain is the Glacier Park, but there is a time limit by cableway, it is the route that most tourists choose to visit the Jade Dragon Snow Mountain first from the Glacier Park, so that after visiting the Glacier Park, they will have more time to visit these beautiful scenic spots in the Blue Moon Valley and take photos, so that they will have more fun.

The whole tour route is roughly as follows: the entrance of Yulong Mountain Scenic Area-Glacier Park-Blue Moon Valley (Baishui River)-Ganhaizi Yunshan Ping and Maoniuping-Impression Lijiang.

Then, let's start our journey.

One-day tour of Yulong Snow Mountain commercial vehicle (ropeway+Glacier Park+Blue Moon Valley+Baishui River+Dried Haizi+High-standard lunch +0 self-funded refund +6 kinds of Snow Mountain packages for you to choose) Hot pot cooking/

All-inclusive price of plateau Sambo/no promotion of battery cars/

Do not sell oxygen bottles/after entering the scenic spot, it is recommended to buy a ropeway ticket first, then go to the Snow Mountain (see the package with the group, remember to book tickets online for self-help tour), and just go directly to the tourist reception center to buy tickets and take the ropeway. There is wind in the snow-capped mountains from June 5438 to April every year, which will affect the operation of the ropeway, and the ropeway will be blocked, which will also affect the trip. It depends on the notice of the scenic spot. It depends on whether there is wind or not.

If you are with a group of tourists, there will be a guide to lead the way. Visitors only need to take photos in the scenic spot. If there are few people, you can go to the Snow Mountain early and spend more time playing. Usually when there are many people, it is 10 to 12 on the mountain, so it is noon. It's cloudy or sunny on the snowy mountain. Whether you can see the beautiful scenery depends on your luck.

Tips:

Opening hours of Snow Mountain Scenic Area: (7:00- 19:00) Take the cableway to Glacier Park (please see the time on the cableway ticket and queue up in advance. The ropeway is not allowed to miss the boarding time. Take the cableway to Maoniuping (morning tickets can be picked up in the morning) and take the cableway to Yunshan Ping (morning tickets can be picked up in the morning).

Glacier park.

Take the bus to the next stop in Glacier Park, and then take the cableway. Glacier Park is located in the northeast of Yulong Snow Mountain Scenic Area with a steep slope. Except in summer, all other times are covered with snow, and only in summer can you see glaciers formed tens of thousands of years ago. This scenic spot is the best place to take pictures, and the Blue Moon Valley is also beautiful.

It takes about 10 minutes to 20 minutes to get to Glacier Park by cableway. People don't have to wait in line, so there is no need to make many people wait in line. After taking the cableway to Glacier Park, you have to climb a plank road to reach the position of 4680m, so the elderly and children with poor physical fitness can enjoy it at the scenic spots around 4200m above sea level. Climbing the plank road should not be as intense as possible. You can indirectly and evenly inhale some oxygen to relieve discomfort, so that you can stay at the highest point.

Glacier Park is 4506 above sea level.

Many tourists say that they can't tell the difference between Glacier Park and Yulong Snow Mountain. It says here that the glacier park can only go up by cableway. Generally, only the glacier park has snow. The Jade Dragon Snow Mountain is the whole scenic spot belonging to Jade Dragon Snow Mountain, and the Glacier Park is just a scenic spot on the northeast slope of the Snow Mountain. In winter, there is usually only snow on the small ropeway and the middle ropeway.

Blue Moon Valley and Baishui River

Blue moon valley.

These two scenic spots are in the same place, except that Baishui River is directly above Blue Moon Valley, and Blue Moon Valley is below. Undoubtedly, Blue Moon Valley is blue and crystal clear because of the water, so there is a big stone to shoot. This place is a scenic spot in Yulong Snow Mountain Scenic Area. Baishui River, on the other hand, is water flowing down from stones, just like on a plate. The water looks white. There are yaks in the scenic spot, so it seems that you can pay for taking pictures. You can take some pictures if you are interested.

Close-up of Blue Moon Valley.

Blue Moon Valley is also called Little Jiuzhaigou, because the water there is as beautiful as Jiuzhaigou. The water in Blue Moon Valley is blue because it contains a lot of copper ions, so it looks clear, but it is not drinkable. There is another saying that the water in Blue Moon Valley said, "One wash is bad luck, two washes are good luck, three washes are good luck, and four washes will make you pregnant.

"

Ganhaizi

Gan Haizi is in the place where the snow mountain has not yet reached the parking lot. There is a stone in this place to take pictures of. You can see a large lawn in summer, and the scenery in autumn is also good. This place is a scenic spot to see the panoramic view of the snow-capped mountains, and it is also worth visiting.

Ganhaizi

Maoniuping

On the way to Blue Moon Valley, near a fork in the road on the right, it takes about 40 minutes for Maoniuping. Although this place is not famous, experienced people will tell you that if it is summer, you must go because it is much better than Yunshan Ping.

Lijiang impression exhibition

Impression Lijiang.

Impression Lijiang, directed by Zhang Yimou, is a large-scale live performance with Yulong Snow Mountain as the background. Whether you like it or not, it is still a bit shocking, and I personally think it is also a scenic spot worth recommending. The performance is divided into off-season and peak season. There are two performances in the peak season and only one in the off-season, but the specific performance time of that day is uncertain, because it always changes, so it depends on the specific ticketing time.

Precautions:

Apart from Impression Lijiang, several major performances in Lijiang, Impression Lijiang, Voice of Yunnan and lishui sands are all indoor performances. The voice of Yunnan is seen next to Lijiang Film City, lishui sands is seen in Red Sun Square, the voice of Yunnan is in Song Cheng, and Lijiang is impressed by the snow-capped mountains.

After seeing almost all these scenic spots, you can go back to the ancient city by bus. The bus stop is where you came in the morning. If you are with a group, there will be a bus back to your residence. If you drive, you can pick up the car in the parking lot. Self-help tourists can return by snow mountain through train.

2. Cableway: 180 yuan (It should be noted that the summer vacation in June, July and August is the peak season for the largest number of people to go to the Snow Mountain, and there are holidays, such as May Day, National Day and New Year's Day, etc., so it is necessary to book tickets for the ropeway in advance. Tickets for the Snow Mountain Cableway are distributed to travel agencies in Lijiang and can only be bought by travel agencies. There is another way to buy, and that is to buy online. Tickets for the middle ropeway and the small ropeway can be bought in the off-season in the scenic area.

One-day tour of Yulong Snow Mountain commercial vehicle (ropeway+Glacier Park+Blue Moon Valley+Baishui River+Dried Haizi+High-standard lunch +0 self-funded refund +6 kinds of Snow Mountain packages for you to choose) Hot pot cooking/

All-inclusive price of plateau Sambo/no promotion of battery cars/no promotion of oxygen cylinders/practical information such as accommodation and transportation.

1. Accommodation: There are many inns, including Dayan Ancient Town and Shuhe Ancient Town. The price depends on the grade and style of the inn and the individual's spending power. The ancient city is more expensive than Shuhe. It is recommended to book online in advance, and it can also be easily booked on apps such as Ant Cell.

2. Transportation:

① Dayan Ancient Town is about 22km away from Yulong Snow Mountain Scenic Area, and Shuhe Ancient Town is about 16km away from Snow Mountain Scenic Area. You can take the snow mountain through train to the snow mountain when staying at the ancient city inn. You can take a bus at Guchengkou, the south gate of ancient city and the north gate of ancient city. Ticket price 20 yuan (one way).

(2) Most tourists will choose to charter a car to go to the Snow Mountain, but like other tourist cities, there are many car masters in Lijiang, so when you charter a car, you must negotiate the price with the master, usually around 300 yuan, because the car master waits for tourists under the Snow Mountain all day, so the price will be a little more expensive. I also want to tell the master that everything is ready to go to the snow mountain. Please drive directly to the Snow Mountain. You don't need to take anything to prepare for it. If there are other needs, we will discuss them before to prevent drivers from taking them to the scene for consumption.

③ Self-driving: Many tourists will choose to drive to the Snow Mountain. I remember that many aunts would pull people there on the way to the snow-capped mountains, saying that tickets for the snow-capped mountains are free, so don't stop, because they will take you to a small slope of the snow-capped mountains and then let you ride horses. I can't go to the snow-capped mountains at all. Remember that you can only go to the scenic spot to buy tickets and take the cableway when you go to the Snow Mountain. Don't be fooled by petty gain.

3. Ticket-free and half-ticket holders: minors or children holding student ID cards (full-time undergraduate and below) hold half-tickets, children holding military officers' certificates, disability certificates, old-age certificates and ID cards, elderly people over 70 years old, children under 6 years old or children under 1.2 meters in height are free of tickets. The remaining documents are invalid. (You must bring your ID card to take the cableway on the snowy mountain)

4. Pregnant women: It is generally not recommended for pregnant women to go to the snow-capped mountains because of the cold and lack of oxygen at high altitude. However, if pregnant women in the group are not suitable for going to the Snow Mountain by cableway, they can go to other people who go to the Snow Mountain, such as scenic spots around Blue Moon Valley, or take a small cableway to play. Maoniuping and Yunshan Ping are also good places.

5. The elderly: If the elderly have cardiovascular diseases or have undergone major surgery, it is not recommended to go to the Snow Mountain.

6.

① Winter clothes: Snow Mountain needs to bring winter clothes, or you can bring your own thick clothes, which are usually rented. Please note that you should rent winter clothes in advance. There are many people renting winter clothes on the way to the snowy mountain. You can rent it by paying 500 yuan deposit, and the rent is 30-40. If you don't take it, you should rent it at least 100. In addition: children over three years old are rented with winter clothes, and tourists with children can rest assured. (If the general travel society prepares oxygen, winter clothes and mineral water for group tourists, tourists only need to bring free things and do not need to pay a deposit for winter clothes. )

② Oxygen: Generally, you should bring a bottle. If tourists come from plain areas, you should take them as much as possible to avoid discomfort. A bottle of oxygen will take about 20-40 yuan 100 in the snow-capped mountains, and it can take about 40 minutes. If you are traveling with a group, it is usually prepared by a travel agency, and you don't need to re-prepare yourself. There are few places to eat along the snow-capped mountains. Remember to prepare something that can supplement your physical strength if you are in poor health. Also, altitude sickness depends on your physical fitness. If you are in good health, you generally don't have it, or it is not obvious. Just try not to do strenuous exercise.

7. After buying a package ticket, you can also play these six small attractions for free with the tickets of Dayulong: you can play "Three East and Three Jade".

The three northeastern provinces: Dongba Valley, Dongba Wanshen Garden and Dongba Kingdom. Sanyu: Yushui Village, Yufeng Temple and Yuzhu Qingtian.

Note: Generally, only big teams come to buy bags.

Concluding remarks

The meaning of travel is different for everyone. Everyone who goes to Lijiang has different expressions about Lijiang. The ostentation of Yulong Snow Mountain will never be repeated. It is tall, majestic, mysterious or endless, and it will leave some indelible special memories more or less. Only in a limited time, let everyone who likes to travel discover more and know more, which is the biggest gain.

As time goes by, you and I will keep going, to find more unknowns, to understand the difference of life, to pursue the meaning of our journey, and to enjoy the beauty of every trip in the best time and in the most comfortable way.
