In the morning, your guide will meet you at your hotel or designated location in Chengdu and assist you with boarding the high-speed train to Songpan, a gateway town to the Tibetan Plateau. The scenic journey takes you through rising mountain landscapes and along winding rivers, offering a smooth and efficient alternative to long-distance driving. Upon arrival, your private driver will be waiting at the station to transfer you into town.
Spend the afternoon exploring Songpan Ancient Town, a historic settlement once known as a strategic military and trade hub on the border between Han Chinese, Tibetan, and Qiang cultures. Accompanied by your guide, stroll along the cobblestone streets and climb the well-preserved city walls for panoramic views of the surrounding hills. Learn about the town’s role along the Tea Horse Road and admire traditional Tibetan-style wooden architecture. You’ll also have time to browse local shops selling yak wool scarves, silver jewelry, and herbal products. Settle into your local hotel and enjoy a peaceful evening in this charming mountain town.
After breakfast, depart Songpan with your guide and driver toward Mounigou Valley, a lesser-known but stunning nature reserve famous for its colorful calcified pools, dense forests, and pristine waterfalls. You’ll follow well-marked trails through virgin spruce forests and up to Zhaga Waterfall, one of the tallest travertine waterfalls in the region. The area is less crowded than Jiuzhaigou, allowing for a more serene experience in nature. Your guide will point out unique plant species, explain the area's geological formation, and help you capture the best photo spots.
In the afternoon, continue driving to Jiuzhaigou, where your guide will assist with hotel check-in. Depending on arrival time, you may have the opportunity to enjoy a relaxing evening stroll around your hotel area or enjoy a Tibetan-style dinner with local dishes such as barley buns or yak stew. Your guide will also brief you on tomorrow’s national park visit to ensure a smooth and rewarding experience.
Today is dedicated to exploring the wonders of Jiuzhaigou National Park, a UNESCO World Heritage Site renowned for its dreamlike scenery and rich biodiversity. Accompanied by your private guide, you’ll navigate through the park’s scenic routes efficiently, avoiding peak-hour crowds and gaining deeper insight into the region’s natural and cultural significance. With serene alpine lakes, tiered waterfalls, and forested valleys around every turn, today promises an unforgettable immersion into one of China’s most iconic natural wonders.
Begin your adventure at the majestic Nuorilang Waterfall, a 320-meter-wide cascade that is among the broadest highland waterfalls in China. As mist drifts through surrounding evergreens and colorful mineral deposits glisten in the sun, your guide will introduce the Tibetan origins of its name—meaning "Grand and Majestic"—and share ancient folktales that add a mystical layer to the experience. The thunderous sound and wide curtain-like fall make it a striking welcome to Jiuzhaigou’s landscape.
Next, marvel at the ethereal beauty of Five-Color Pond, one of the park’s most iconic small lakes. Despite covering just over 5,000 square meters, this hidden gem stuns visitors with its shimmering palette of turquoise, emerald, sapphire, and cobalt hues. Your guide will explain how the lake’s colors result from natural calcium carbonate deposits and algae under crystal-clear glacial water. As you stroll along the viewing platform, you’ll learn how this site is considered sacred in Tibetan culture, often associated with local deities and prayers.
Travel to the farthest reaches of the Zechawa Valley to reach Long Lake, the highest and deepest in Jiuzhaigou. At an altitude of over 3,000 meters, this serene body of water stretches for more than 7 kilometers, framed by soaring snow-capped peaks and ancient pine forests. The lake’s stillness, particularly on windless days, creates flawless reflections of the surrounding sky and mountains—ideal for photography. Your guide will share insights into its glacial origins and explain why the lake is revered by local Tibetan communities, believed to house protective spirits.
After a full day of natural splendor, your guide will accompany you back to your hotel, ensuring a smooth return and helping you unwind. Whether you’re looking for a quiet local restaurant, a Tibetan-style dinner, or just a peaceful evening stroll nearby, your guide will offer personalized recommendations to make your evening in Jiuzhaigou just as memorable as the day.
Enjoy a leisurely morning and some free time to walk near your hotel or take a few final photographs of Jiuzhaigou’s serene surroundings. Your guide and driver will then transfer you to the train station and assist you with boarding the high-speed train back to Chengdu. Sit back and relax as you descend from the Tibetan Plateau to the vibrant capital of Sichuan. Upon arrival, end your tour with a smooth drop-off at your Chengdu hotel, airport, or next travel connection—bringing an enriching journey to a close.
