After returning to the camp by cable car, go to Chengmendong to get close to the glacier About the four camps of Hailuogou: Camp  Altitude 1940 meters Highlights: Lianxiang Tree, Kangding Magnolia, Tibetan Pheasant, Butterflies, etc., 56℃ hot spring, long-distance viewing of the second glacier Camp  Altitude 2660 meters Highlights: Red Bean Fir, Birch, Wild Animals: Antelope, Macaque, 92.5℃ Glacier Hot Spring Camp  Altitude 2980 meters Highlights: It is the starting point of the glacier, Tibetan macaques, large-leaf rhododendrons, and visit the original forest Camp  Altitude 3600 meters Highlights: Shrubbery Snow Lotus, Cable Car, Full View of the Big Ice Waterfall, Overlooking the Main Peak of Gongga Mountain ‼️Warm tips: 1、Don't go to Red Stone Beach, most of the stones are no longer red, you can go to the Red Stone Park at the foot of the mountain (free, the scenery is better than Red Stone Beach). 2、If you find that the visibility is poor or the weather is not good at the third camp, it is recommended not to take the 135 yuan cable car, because you can't see the full view of the glacier when you get there, it is better to choose the above-mentioned plan one. 3、About the hot spring, if you can stay in Jinshan Hotel, it would be great, otherwise, some hot springs in Moxi Town are still good, of course, friends who are not short of money can go to Gongga Tangshen Hot Spring.

The cold wind blows, and snowflakes gently fall, creating a dreamlike winter scene at Hailuogou Glacier Forest Park. Stepping into this white wonderland feels like entering a magical painting by nature. The snow-covered ground contrasts beautifully with the ancient pine trees, and the serene air carries a crisp chill that makes you want to take a deep breath, as if you could capture this purity in your heart. As you follow the winding paths, the magnificent glacier gradually reveals itself. The blue glacier sparkles in the sunlight, and the majestic peaks stand like sleeping giants, silently guarding this enchanting land. Thick snow blankets the surroundings, and every leaf in the forest is adorned with frost, forming ice flowers that invite you to pause and admire. This winter tranquility seems to cleanse every speck of dust from your soul. Here, every step feels like walking into a winter poem, and every deep breath resonates with the rhythm of nature. The winter at Hailuogou is so pure and beautiful, carrying a tranquility that feels far removed from the hustle and bustle of everyday life, making it impossible not to be captivated by it.
