introduce

A snow-capped mountain very close to downtown Chengdu, the scenery in the mountain has its own characteristics throughout the year. The main peak, Miaojiling, is more than 5,000 meters above sea level, and the top of the mountain is covered with snow all the year round, making it beautiful and spectacular. In addition to ski resorts, there are many ice and snow recreation projects such as snowmobiles and dog sleds on the mountain.

In spring, the mountains are full of flowers, and rhododendrons form forests. More than 30 varieties of rhododendrons stretch for tens of miles. They bloom sequentially from April to July every year according to the difference in altitude. The mountains and plains are like a sea of flowers; The winter snow accumulation period is from the end of November to the end of March of the following year. At this time, Xiling Snow Mountain is a good place for ice and snow recreation.

Xiling Snow Mountain is divided into the front mountain and the back mountain. The front mountain is the Dafeishui scenic spot, which is a pure hiking scenic spot. The back mountain is a skiing scene area, where skiing is possible in winter, and sightseeing and grass skiing in other seasons. There are two cableways built on the mountain: traffic cableway (also known as Yuanyangchi cableway) and viewing cableway. After entering the gate of the scenic spot, take the traffic cableway to the Yuanyangchi Reception Center halfway up the mountain. This is a relatively flat square. In summer, play in the water in Yingxue Lake, and you can play grass skiing on the east side of the lake. In winter, the grass ski area becomes a skier's paradise.

Take the shuttle bus at the Yuanyangchi Reception Center, arrive at the cableway station by Yingxue Lake, and take the viewing cableway to Riyueping, which is more than 3,200 meters away. Walk along the mountain trails, while enjoying the scenery on the top of the mountain, visit Bison Road, Red Rock Fort, Red Rock Point, Baisha Gang and Yin Yang Realm.
