The Most Worthwhile Hiking Trip of Your Life | The Magical Milk Lake

🌟Highlights: Milk Lake is named for its milky white water, which is as warm as milk and reflects the surrounding snow-capped mountains, giving it a tranquil and mysterious feel. Milk Lake is located on the alpine meadow of Mount Siguniang, at an altitude of about 4,500 meters. It is far from the hustle and bustle of the city and is surrounded by meadows, glaciers, and forests. 📝Tips: 1️⃣Best time to visit: Summer and autumn (June to September) are the best times to visit Milk Lake, as the weather is pleasant and the scenery is most charming. 2️⃣Altitude sickness: As Milk Lake is located at a high altitude (about 4,500 meters), visitors should be aware of altitude sickness and are advised to acclimatize to the high altitude environment in advance. 3️⃣Mountaineering equipment: The journey to Milk Lake is difficult, and the round trip takes about 6–8 hours. It is recommended to bring professional mountaineering shoes, warm clothing, and enough water. If you have mild altitude sickness, you can bring a few cans of oxygen. If you have severe altitude sickness, it is not recommended to climb up, as it is really tiring. ❤Recommended reason: Beautiful! It's really beautiful! Milk Lake is not only a natural treasure but also an important part of Tibetan culture. There are many myths and legends about Milk Lake, and Tibetans believe that Milk Lake is a sacred place where the gods live. Every year, pilgrims come to pray for peace and good luck. Here, you can feel the strong Tibetan cultural atmosphere and the wisdom and faith of the Tibetan people living in harmony with nature.
