Hiking and mushroom picking in the colorful forest where immortals reside🟫 Shenmu Lei means "the place where immortals play" in Tibetan. The altitude here is 2300-4

Where immortals live❗️Colorful forest hiking🌲and mushroom picking🍄🟫 Shenmu Lei means "the place where immortals play" in Tibetan. The altitude here ranges from 2300 to 4300 meters, with a forest coverage rate as high as 85%. Staying in the scenic area, wake up early to hike the redwood forest with your kids, see the colorful forest covering the mountains, moss, mushrooms, and various wild animals🐒. ✅Recommended parent-child hiking route Classic small loop: Scenic area entrance → Redwood forest → Shenmu Heavenly Ladder → Root carving garden → Alpine meadow → Return You can take a sightseeing bus to the meadow with your kids (20 RMB/person). If staying in the scenic area, you can also drive up yourself and then hike down slowly to enjoy the scenery. ✅New experience in the primeval forest ▪️Redwood secret realm: Towering redwoods form a dreamy passageway. In autumn, the golden scenery is perfect for photos. ▪️Forest treasure hunt: In the primeval forest, take your kids to find various mosses, mushrooms, and wild fruit seeds. ▪️Meadow fun: Reach the flat and wide alpine meadow where kids can run freely and enjoy views of two sacred mountains—Renzan Lama and Yaxilamu. ▪️Encounter wild animals: This is home to rare wild animals. If lucky, you might see quails, adorable marmots, and free-range mountain pigs. ⚠️The hotel owner said that recently, wild giant pandas have even come down the mountain and roamed the scenic area❗️If you encounter one, you’re really lucky❗️ 🌟Tips: 1️⃣ Large temperature difference between morning and evening, remember to bring warm clothes. 2️⃣ Many steps and slippery surfaces, wear comfortable non-slip shoes. 3️⃣ Strong UV rays on the plateau, take sun protection measures. 4️⃣ High altitude, beware of altitude sickness. I brought a portable oxygen machine, and taking a couple of breaths when tired really helped a lot. 📍Navigation: Shenmu Lei 🚗Travel time: About 4 hours from Chengdu 🎫Ticket: 52 RMB/person
