12-Day Itinerary

Highlights
The Ganzi Tibetan Kham is situated in the west part of Sichuan province, bordering Qinghai-Tibet plateau. The unusual geography and weather conditions along the transitional zone between Sichuan Basin and Qinghai-Tibetan Plateau have given rise to a variety of landforms and conditions, such as mountains, glaciers, alpine lakes, and unique botany. As an area dominated by Tibetan culture for a long period of time, the local customs are clearly reflected in the more than 500 Lamaist temples in the prefecture. Tourism resources are centered around Mount Gonga including Mount Erlang, the Luding Bridge, Hailuogou Gully, Mount Paoma, Muge Lake and the Tagong Grassland. All of these attractions together with the customs and lifestyle of Tibetan people create magnets to visitors home and abroad.　
With its highest peak touching the heaven at 7,556 meters above sea level, Mount Gongga straddles three counties of Kangding, Luding and Jiulong. The surrounding land includes a wide range of topography, such as virgin forests, snow-capped mountains, pastures, alpine lakes, hot springs, waterfalls and so on.
At an altitude of 2,850 meters above sea level, Hailuogou Gully Glacial Forest Park lies in a valley carved by glaciers along the eastern slope of Mount Gongga in Luding County. The gully has hot springs, virgin forest, glacier carved peaks, and abundant animal and plant resources. Golden Peak and Silver Peak face to face offer a magnificent view.
