Visitors can experience the feeling of wearing a cotton jacket in the morning, a thin shawl at noon, and eating watermelon around a bonfire at night. So, what month is the best time to visit Tengger Desert, and what are the specific camping strategies?
1. Camping Guide
1. Prepare a hiking backpack with a capacity of 15-30L or a saddlebag. Do not bring a suitcase with wheels.
2. Bring extra clothes, as the temperature difference between day and night in the desert is large, so you can adjust your outfit based on the temperature.
3. There are camping bases in the desert, so you don’t need to bring your own tent, but you can bring some camping gear.
2. Travel Time
The best time to visit Tengger Desert for camping is from April to September every year, with spring and autumn being particularly comfortable. This time of year is also ideal for desert hiking. In the summer, the weather is cool in the morning and evening, but hot in the afternoon. This season is perfect for camping, stargazing, and sand surfing.
