Chengdu Four Girls Mountain two-day group tour real evaluation

After work, I joined a group tour to Four Girls Mountain to cleanse my eyes. We chose to form our own group, which consisted of friends and colleagues, a total of 10 people. For individual travel, you can choose a larger group, which is cheaper and also allows you to make new friends. 📆 Itinerary: Four Girls Mountain is about a 4-hour drive one way, and the road conditions are fairly good. We set off at 8 o'clock in the morning, and it was a sunny day all the way, with nice scenery along the way, which also made for a good mood. A colleague had some last-minute work on the day and drove over after getting off work in the afternoon. The temperature dropped at night, and black ice appeared, so self-driving friends must be careful. 【Pros and Cons of Joining a Group】: 1⃣ Cheaper, the independent group costs about 700 yuan per person, while the larger group costs just over 300 yuan, including transportation, accommodation, entrance tickets, and meals, which is quite recommended for group tours. 2⃣ No need to drive yourself, you can sleep in the car, listen to music, enjoy the scenery, and chat without getting tired. 3⃣ Dining: The Tibetan meal at noon on the first day was barely satisfactory, but the dinner and the meals on the second day were well arranged. 4⃣ Accommodation was chosen as luxury business accommodation, with floor heating and relatively clean. Accommodations in Western Sichuan are similar, so don't have too high expectations. 5⃣ There were no shopping stops throughout the trip, and on the way back, we specifically asked to stop to buy beef and beef jerky. 🗓 Itinerary: D1: Chengdu—Yingxiu—Shuangqiao Valley D2: Changping Valley—Mao's Nose Ridge—Chengdu ⛰【Attraction Guide】 Four Girls Mountain scenic area is mainly divided into three valleys: Shuangqiao Valley, Changping Valley, and Haizi Valley. Shuangqiao Valley is 35 kilometers long and is the most developed of the three valleys. It offers the richest scenery in winter, allowing you to see the most beautiful views with the least walking. The sightseeing bus will take you non-stop from the starting point to the end, where you get off at the Red Fir Forest station at an altitude of 3840 meters. Friends who suffer from altitude sickness should bring oxygen bottles or take Rhodiola in advance. This spot has a circular trail that allows you to directly see the summit of Four Girls Mountain, and after viewing, you can go down the mountain. There are a total of 7 stations, one of which is for rafting, which is not open in winter, so we didn't get off. Four Girls Mountain Changping Valley scenic area is 29 kilometers long. The guides say the further you go, the better it looks, but in winter it's all withered trees and leaves, and some hard ice. If you go after visiting Shuangqiao Valley, you will feel a big drop (personal opinion), and we didn't walk far before turning back to go eat. There is another valley called Haizi Valley, which is said to be undeveloped and requires hiking the entire way. I didn't go, so I won't comment.
