Camping is the hottest outdoor activity this year. It’s the best way to travel during the epidemic. Are there any places suitable for camping in Ya’an? Below, I recommend a few scenic campsites. Let’s take a look!

The mountain may not be high, but it is famous for its fairy.

Entering the summer, Mount Mengding is an endless green. The lush forests are like a natural barrier, blocking all the summer heat.

In addition, there are tea art performances, treetop walks, red culture… These are all must-check-in items when visiting Mount Mengding.

Niubei Mountain is one of the few 360-degree all-round snow-capped mountain viewing platforms in China. Here you can see Nibas Mountain, Wuyushan Mountain, Emeishan Mountain, Jiaginshan Mountain, Siguniangshan Mountain, and Erlang Mountain.

Of course, the most magnificent is the King of Shu Mountain – Gongga Snow Mountain!

3、Meng Huocheng

Meng Huocheng, where Zhuge Liang captured Meng Huo seven times, is located in Liziping Township, Shimian County, Ya’an.

This is the largest alpine ecological meadow in the west of China, with the most moderate altitude and easiest access.

Compared with the mountains and forests in western Sichuan, Meng Huocheng has a broad and rough beauty.

In the middle of the meadow area, there is a thousand-year-old withered tree, which is said to be the sacred tree that helped Meng Huo, and it is also the sacred tree that protects the villagers of Meng Huocheng.

June and July every year are the most beautiful seasons of Meng Huocheng.

It is always blue sky and white clouds, cattle and sheep in groups, and the meadow is full of unknown yellow flowers. It’s like the little yellow flower in Jay’s lyrics.

Camping on the meadow, you can do nothing, just lie down and stare blankly. Watch the clouds roll and watch the wind blow, stirring up waves of grass.

With the addition of the fragrance of flowers, the wind also begins to taste.

However, it is necessary to pay special attention that overnight camping is not allowed in Meng Huocheng. Therefore, campers who come here can come a little earlier to seize the best afternoon time and enjoy it.

In addition to the above three scenic spots, there are many scenic spots in Ya’an that are good places to check in for camping. Choose the one that suits you best and go out to experience it.

4、Dengchigou

Dengchigou is located in Fengtongzhai Nature Reserve in Baoxing County, Ya’an, at 30° north latitude. Because not many people know about it, it is a truly niche hidden world check-in place.

Every table and chair in the church is a memory of history. The church also exhibits the life of David and the story of the giant panda. It is also a good idea to learn about it in your spare time.

And just in the past May Day holiday, the camping trend has also swept Dengchigou.

The Moon Lake, as smooth as a mirror, is surrounded by green tea gardens, layer upon layer, like a piece of jade inlaid between the tea gardens, forming a beautiful landscape of “lake light and tea color”.

Compared with other campsites, Moon Lake is more suitable for family trips. The camp here is open, safe and convenient, and there are many choices.

Wangyu Haizi Mountain is located in Yucheng District, Ya’an. It is the largest alpine ecological wetland in Ya’an, with a wetland area of ​​more than 1,000 acres, which is also a great place to play wild camping.

The wetland is mainly composed of three adjacent haizi, which are called “Dahaizi”, “Wanghaizi” and “Lihaizi” by the locals, respectively.

At a glance, it’s like being in a paradise, the lake water is clear and the green is everywhere. The undeveloped Haizi Mountain still has the most natural flavor.
