Autumn in the Mountains and Rivers | Qilian Mountain Binggou River Scenic Area.

The autumn wind rises, and the forest is dyed. Autumn is nature's palette and the most beautiful season. In autumn, Binggou River is full of golden colors, like a beautiful oil painting. The mountains here are like guardians, guarding this land; the water here is clear and bottomless, like a flowing blue ribbon, winding between the valleys.

[Northwest Secret] Explore the mystery and beauty of Wuwei, Gansu.

🌟 Departing from Jiangsu, we embarked on a spontaneous trip and flew to Lanzhou, Gansu, to start an unforgettable journey to the northwest. 🍜 In Lanzhou, we tasted beef noodles in the streets and alleys, each bite was authentic northwest flavor. 🏛️ Gansu Provincial Museum was our first stop, and the collection there gave us a deeper understanding of the history of this land. 🚗 Then, we rented a car to Wuwei, and after more than four hours of driving, we crossed the vast northwest land. 🎑 Wuwei, a quiet and beautiful place, the Buddha statues in the museum made us feel the weight of history, and the spicy hot pot on the street let us experience the local flavor. ❄️ The cold wind in the Binggou River Scenic Area made us realize that the winter in the northwest is completely different from that in the south of the Yangtze River, and we experienced the real cold here. 🌄 The shock of the Yunti Mountain Grottoes made us respect the skills of ancient craftsmen, and the special ginseng fruit made us deeply impressed by the richness of this land. 🛍️ Back in Lanzhou, we accidentally discovered pulp yogurt, the unique taste of which made us memorable and even brought it home to continue enjoying. 📸 Along the way, we used the camera to record every unforgettable moment, from the beef noodles in Lanzhou to the grottoes in Wuwei, from the cold wind in Binggou River to the shock of Yunti Mountain, each photo is a witness to our trip. 🌈 This is a baptism of the soul and a feast of vision. Wuwei, Gansu, a niche tourist destination worth exploring by yourself.

Hexi Secret Realm—Tianchi Nanny-Level Guide

Qilian Secret Realm | Gansu Wuwei Binggou River Chai'er Longhai|| Beginner's Second Hike Successfully explored Wuwei Binggou River Chai'er Longhai🏞️ - 🚗Transportation: The scenic area is 35 kilometers away from Wuwei city. Navigate to Binggou River Ecological Tourism Resort, and drive to the scenic area entrance. For those not driving, you can check other transportation options on the mini-program "Qilian Mountain Binggou River Tourist Scenic Area". In-park transportation is by sightseeing bus, shuttling between the scenic area entrance and the walking boardwalk entrance. Although the sightseeing bus ticket states operating hours from 9:00 to 17:30, the last bus runs until 19:00. If you miss it, you will have to walk from the boardwalk entrance to the scenic area entrance, approximately 4 kilometers. (Thanks to the staff) 🕐Time: The scenic area opens at 9:00 AM. Before entering, you need to sign an agreement (leave the name and phone number of a non-companion emergency contact). The scenic area requires hikers heading to Chai'er Longhai to return within the specified time: From June to August, before 5:00 PM; other times before 4:00 PM. This is not a strict requirement; those with good stamina should be able to return around 5:00 PM. Weather☁️: The scenic area is located in Tianzhu Tibetan Autonomous County, with average temperatures around 10-22 degrees Celsius in early August. The weather in the mountains changes frequently, alternating between cloudy and sunny, with occasional cold winds or light rain, causing sudden temperature drops. Essential items include a windbreaker, sun protection, and rain gear (a hat is recommended for sun protection, as UV rays are very strong). Using trekking poles will save a lot of effort. 🏃🏻‍♀️Route: Take the sightseeing bus from the scenic area entrance to the walking boardwalk entrance. After getting off, start hiking from the boardwalk entrance until the end of the boardwalk, which is about 8 kilometers. Then, pass through the rocky and meadow areas at the foot of Chai'er Longhai Mountain to reach Chai'er Longhai. The last 2 kilometers ascend from an altitude of 3600 meters to 3980 meters. The one-way distance is about 10 kilometers, totaling around 20 kilometers round trip. - Currently, the scenic area has extended the walking boardwalk as much as possible to the foot of Chai'er Longhai Mountain, but there are no supply stations along the 20-kilometer round trip, so you need to bring your own food and water and plan your return time. The only transportation in the park is the sightseeing bus at the boardwalk entrance. Once you enter the hiking route, there are no other transportation options, so it is recommended to gauge your strength. Additionally, due to the continuous elevation gain during the hike, altitude sickness may occur. It is recommended to bring an oxygen tank or take altitude sickness prevention medication in advance. - After experiencing the primeval forest, mountains, meadows, and wetlands, feeling the fog, wind, rain, and sunshine, finally arriving at the glacial lake, although the process is very tiring, it is all worth it.

Help!!! This is actually the Little Switzerland of China｜Binggou River in Qilian Mountains

It's really beautiful, just like a fairy tale. It's a paradise for hiking enthusiasts and a perfect summer resort!!! It's so beautiful that I regret not bringing enough clothes! Binggou River Scenic Area is located in Qilian Town, Tianzhu Tibetan Autonomous County, Wuwei City, Gansu Province, 35 kilometers away from Wuwei City. This is a treasure trove that integrates natural landscapes such as snow-capped mountains, heavenly lakes, waterfalls, forests, grasslands, and rivers. It reopened at the end of April 2023. The scenic area sightseeing bus costs 30 yuan, and the number of rides is unlimited. 🕒Play time: Due to limited time, we didn't explore the snow-capped mountains and heavenly lakes in depth, only visited the Nimela Grand Canyon and forest crossing, which took about 2-3 hours. 🌟Here are some warm tips: 1. The entire hiking route is about 8 kilometers one way. The sightseeing bus can reach the 5-kilometer mark, and the remaining 3 kilometers need to be hiked, but the scenery in the first 5 kilometers is super beautiful. 2. The marmots on the road are chubby and appear in groups. 3. There are also many white yaks. 4. The scenic area is not overly developed, retaining a primitive atmosphere, quiet and comfortable. However, the signal in the mountains is poor, and some areas have no signal. Don't go too deep into the hinterland, safety first! Locals say they have seen brown bears here. 5. There are restaurants in the scenic area with high cost performance and delicious food. 6. The temperature in the mountains is low, wearing a down jacket is not an exaggeration. If you don't bring thick clothes, you can rent a windbreaker for 60 yuan, with a deposit of 300 yuan. 7. The Malan flowers and rhododendrons have not bloomed, and the snow has not melted, so the water flow is not large. It's too cold this year. This place is great for summer vacation and is also very suitable for family trips. The scenic area has hotels, the roads are easy to walk, and there is no climbing. My watch shows an altitude of 2900 meters, so don't walk too fast. 🏁Suggested route: After entering 👉 forest crossing 👉 Nimela Grand Canyon 👉 sightseeing bus back; or vice versa. Those with good physical strength can hike back and forth for an in-depth exchange with nature!
