As the altitude gradually increases, the scenery changes from urban landscapes to alpine mountains and Tibetan-style villages.

Upon arrival near Siguniang Mountain, check in to your local guesthouse or hotel. The rest of the day is free for rest, acclimatization, and preparation for the trek. Your guide may also brief you on the trekking route, weather conditions, packing notes, and safety tips.

Day 2: Changping Valley Trekking – Forests, Rivers and Snow Mountain Views

After breakfast, begin your trek in Changping Valley, one of the most beautiful valleys in the Siguniang Mountain area. This valley is known for its peaceful forests, clear streams, wooden trails, mountain views, and rich alpine scenery.

The first section of the hike follows relatively gentle valley trails. You will walk through forests, pass rivers and prayer flags, and enjoy views of snow-capped peaks when the weather is clear. As you move deeper into the valley, the atmosphere becomes quieter and more remote.

Changping Valley offers a perfect introduction to the natural beauty of Siguniang Mountain. The landscape combines forest, river, meadow, and mountain scenery, making it an excellent day for photography and nature exploration.

This day offers a true feeling of wilderness trekking in western Sichuan. You will be surrounded by snow peaks, rugged valleys, fresh mountain air, and untouched alpine landscapes. The guide will adjust the pace according to the group’s condition, altitude, and safety requirements.
