Conquer the Entire Snow Mountain Wonderland of Luoji Mountain

💥In short: The beauty of Luoji Mountain is breathtaking!! 🚗【Transportation Guide】 1️⃣ Xichang Bus Station → Luoji Mountain Town (22 CNY bus / 35 CNY shuttle) ⚠️Important Lesson: When you get on the bus, make sure to tell the driver "Going hiking! Not to the hot springs!" (The Jiujishuli Hot Springs are another 20 minutes further). 2️⃣ Town → Scenic Area Entrance: 30 CNY/car (solo travelers can find others to share the cost). 🏔️【Hiking Route】 ⛰️Hike at an altitude of 4000+ meters, but the beauty is worth it!! 🔛Two routes after taking the cable car to the top: ⬅️Left route (easy version): Gentle boardwalk with views of glacial lakes. ➡️Right route (challenging version): 75° Heavenly Ladder (even I, a regular gym-goer, had my heart rate soar to 160+). 💡Ultimate Tip: Go up the left route and down the right route (loop trail, see Heilongtan, Xiancaohu, and the glacial U-valley). 👀【Real Scenes】 ▪️Heilongtan: The wind is strong enough to blow you silly, but the reflection of the snow mountain in the mirror-like lake is instantly healing. ▪️Xiancaohu: The cracked ice surface looks like an overturned jade box (my hands were frozen, but I still snapped tons of photos). ▪️Glacial Remains: Standing in the ancient glacial valley, I suddenly felt as small as a speck of dust. ❄️【Essential Gear】 ▫️Windproof down jacket + wool hat + touchscreen gloves (my fingers almost froze off on the mountain). ▫️Ginger tea in a thermos! Ginger tea in a thermos! Ginger tea in a thermos! (Important things must be said three times). ▫️Chocolate/energy bars (no shops on the mountain! Don't wait until you're hungry enough to gnaw on tree bark). ✨【Enjoy the Wonderland】 Enter the mountain at 10:00 on a working day, and you'll have the entire snow mountain to yourself!! I only encountered a few other groups along the way. It was so quiet that I could hear the ice cracking. Standing on the viewing platform with open arms—the world was mine!! 💌Gentle warning from a solo traveler: Altitude sickness alert! Stop every 20 steps to catch your breath. But trust me, when the sun breaks through the clouds and illuminates the snow-capped peaks, you'll cry and thank yourself for persevering. 📌Early 2025 achievement: A red nose and trembling legs in exchange for 300 stunning, filter-free photos on my phone. So, wanna join me? 🤍
