2025 Batang Travel Guide: Must-see attractions, popular food, hotels, transportation routes (updated in April)

A trip to Ganzi, Sichuan, along the 318 Liyang Highway from Litang to Daocheng Yading, passes through scenic spots such as Haizi Mountain, Rabbit Mountain, and Red Grassland. Among them, Haizi Mountain is the most noteworthy. The plateau terrain of Haizi Mountain is dotted with numerous lakes, which are remnants of ancient ice bodies, scattered like stars in the sky. The shallow hills and lakes are interspersed with ancient ice cirques, U-shaped valleys, glacial erosion depressions, and cirque lakes. The unique ancient glacial landforms resemble extraterrestrial surfaces, making Haizi Mountain particularly photogenic under the blue sky and bright sun. Visitors eagerly climb up to take photos and commemorate their visit. Although we witnessed the unique ancient ice relics of Haizi Mountain, we missed the red of the Red Grassland due to the wrong season. Instead, we saw the withered yellow grassland, which, though desolate, unexpectedly captured a different kind of plateau wilderness scenery.

Glaciers and flower seas, this is the place where the summer in western Sichuan becomes divine. On the way to Batang, I accidentally fell in love with this mountain valley pastoral village. Here, surrounded by high mountains on all sides, the Dingqu River winds through the valley. The forest grassland spreads out like a green carpet, and small wildflowers adorn the entire valley. Horses and yaks are quietly foraging, and village children are playing freely. This scene is like the Dolomites in Italy, it's really beautiful. On this trip, I can see such a secret place, a big surprise. 📍Location: Gemu Village, Bomi Township, Batang, Ganzi 🚗Transportation: Self-driving 💚Road conditions: Zeba Village to Gemu Village: There are 15KM of bomb pit roads in the Litang section, SUV is required, not recommended for cars Batang to Gemu Village: The road conditions are good all the way, cars can pass OK 💚【Photo Spot Recommendations】 Reti Valley 1.

Gemu Village S Bay I personally think there are 2 S bays, one is about 5KM before entering the village (here is a valley on one side, full of wildflowers on the other side, and high mountains in the distance), and the other is at the position of leaving the village and going up the mountain, both are very suitable for framing 4. Flower Sea of Gemu Village Gemu Village is located in a narrow grassland, the houses are small wooden houses and tents, and there are large areas of small wildflowers near the village, dense and spectacular 💚【7-day itinerary suggestion】 D1: Chengdu-Kangding-S434-Yuzi West-Xinduqiao D2: Xinduqiao-Yajiang-Tianlu 18 bends-Litang D3: Litang-Tiejiangshan-Wild Hot Spring-Xiaze Tong D4: Xiaze Tong-Eye of Gelie-Lenggu Temple-Zeba Village D5: Zeba Village-Hangda Camp-Gemu Village D6: Gemu-Cuopu Gorge-Sister Lake-Mao Ya Grassland-Litang D7: Litang-Chengdu 💚Tips: 1.

Just got back from a trip along the Southern Genyen Route with my 8-year-old son. We covered 230 km with no altitude sickness and no meltdowns! I highly recommend this "concentrated scenic beauty" route in Western Sichuan to all parents who want to show their kids the world 👇 🌟【Why take your kids on the Southern Genyen Route?】 1⃣ Daily drives < 3 hours! Compared to Xinjiang or Tibet, where drives can easily reach 5 hours, this route is much more kid-friendly. 2⃣ Geography lessons come to life: On Day 2, we learned about glacial erosion at Genyen Eye Lake, and on Day 4, we saw geothermal springs in Cuopugou. Way more exciting than any textbook! 3⃣ Immersive Tibetan cultural experience: My son learned to make tsampa with a Tibetan grandma at Hangda Camp and copied Tsangyang Gyatso's Tibetan poems at Renkang Ancient House (his essay material is overflowing now 😏). 🚗【The most mom-friendly itinerary】 Hangda Camp on Day 3 deserves special praise! Our tent faced Mount Genyen, and while we were having hot pot with glacial water in the evening, the owner taught the kids how to start a fire with cow dung (they screamed that it was more fun than LEGO). At 3 am, wrapped in sleeping bags, we watched the Milky Way fall into Genyen Eye Lake, and my son suddenly said, "Mom, the stars are covering the mountain with a blanket!" ✨ Feeding marmots in Batang Cuopugou Scenic Area on Day 4 was amazing! Remember to bring plain biscuits. Those chubby creatures will stand up and wave their paws, so cute that the kids couldn't walk away. But keep a close eye on your snacks—I saw a Tibetan uncle's beef jerky get snatched 😂. ⚠【Lessons learned the hard way】 1⃣ Don't hesitate to buy oxygen canisters in Litang, even if they're expensive! A mom from Chengdu we met bought a CNY 20 oxygen canister in Chengdu, but it wouldn't work at Genyen Eye Lake (you need medical-grade ones at 4200+ meters!). 2⃣ Pack two pairs of shoes for your child: hiking boots + water shoes! Water shoes were a lifesaver for this mom when we were playing in the Rehti Valley—the rocks on the riverbed were incredibly slippery. 3⃣ Sunscreen every inch of skin! I put SPF 50+ on my son, but missed the gaps between his fingers, and he came back with what looked like black gloves 😭. 📚【Hidden culture】 We met Grandma Zhuoma herding yaks in Changqing Village, and she pointed at Mount Genyen and told the kids the legend of King Gesar. The most amazing thing was when we passed Genyen Eye Lake, my son suddenly shouted, "This is King Gesar's telescope, right?!" (My cultural knowledge was totally outmatched). Now my son keeps talking about going back to see his marmot friends, and all I can think about is that pot of Tibetan hot pot cooked with glacial water at Hangda Camp... This route is seriously addictive! But if you ask me if it's worth taking your kids, I'd say: Go before it becomes the next Yading!

I finally made it to the Cuopugou Scenic Area, a place I've been longing to visit! 😍 As soon as I stepped into this mystical Tibetan land, I was deeply moved by the beauty before my eyes! 🏔️ Towering snow-capped mountains, surrounded by clouds and mist, make you feel like you've stepped into a breathtaking landscape painting. The crystal-clear lakes reflect the majestic snow mountains, creating a mesmerizingly beautiful scene. 🌊 Entering Cuopugou, the first thing that catches your eye is the continuous range of towering snow mountains. Like a group of giants, they guard this magical land. The pure white peaks shimmer with a sacred glow under the sunlight, and the snow on the summits, which never melts throughout the year, complements the blue sky, forming a stunning picture. Below the snow mountains lies a vast expanse of primeval forest. The trees are tall and straight, with lush foliage that blocks out the sky and sun. Strolling through the forest, the thick layer of fallen leaves underfoot makes a rustling sound, as if the forest is whispering. Various rare wild animals thrive here, adding vitality to this tranquil forest. 🌲 The dense forest is full of lush greenery, and walking through it feels like entering a natural oxygen bar. Breathing in the fresh air, I felt completely relaxed both physically and mentally. 🍃 🐎 And then there are the leisurely yaks and horses, grazing peacefully on the grassland, adding a touch of life and vibrancy to this beautiful scenery. 🐄🐎 📸 I took so many beautiful photos, but it never felt like enough!

Day 34 of the 101-day 318 Grand Loop. After completing the two-day trek through the southern line of Genie, I arrived in Batang County. I chose this Holiday Inn for my stay because of its good reviews. I stayed here for two days and went to Cuopu Valley on the second day. . The hotel is in a great location in the center of the county, surrounded by bustling streets. It has its own spacious parking lot in the backyard with several charging stations, making it very friendly for self-driving travelers. Batang is not at a high altitude, making it the best place to rest before entering Tibet on the 318. . However, for a Holiday Inn, the facilities here are a bit lacking. I think it would be more appropriate to call it a Holiday Inn Express. However, this hotel shares the same owner as the InterContinental and Indigo in Lijiang, and the Indigo in Diqing and Lugu Lake, which are all quite strong. They probably wouldn't be willing to open a Holiday Inn Express, and Litang County can't support a high-end brand at the moment, so it's understandable. I only realized they had the same owner when I received the same Pu'er tea gift as the other hotels when I checked out. . The hotel doesn't have an executive lounge or any alternatives, and it doesn't even have a gym. However, the service is still very good. They gave me a bunch of snacks when I checked in, the minibar in the room is free, and they automatically upgraded me to a suite with my Diamond membership. . The hotel lobby is connected to the breakfast room, which is indeed small, and the decor is average. The guest rooms are on the 7th floor. . The suite is said to be 40 square meters, but it's actually just an open suite, which is not as good as the Holiday Inn Express in Litang. However, it's already the best room in the hotel. As a Tibetan hotel that opened in 2019, it's well-maintained. There's a closet on the right when you enter, a bathroom in front, and a bedroom on the left. The sofa at the foot of the bed also serves as a reception area. The desk, TV cabinet, and minibar are combined into a single table, making good use of space and practicality. . The minibar offers free Pure Joy water, Chali tea bags, Nestle instant coffee, and 6 free soft drinks, including beer, in the mini fridge. . The bathroom has a large vanity, but only a single sink. There's a bathtub, and you can enjoy a bath at an altitude of less than 3,000 meters. There's no oxygen supply system due to the low altitude, but the heating is good. . The hotel is reasonably priced, with a good location and cleanliness, making it the top choice in Batang.
