🚗 Taking Kids into the Mountains! Choose the Right Way from 2 Options Without Hassle 📍 Depart from Chengdu, 3.5 hours straight to Changhai Parking Lot, kids won’t fuss even after sitting long~ 1⃣ Shuttle Bus + UTV Wild Ride Up the Mountain (Kids Love It!) 💰 120 RMB ticket includes shuttle bus, then spend 240 RMB for round-trip for two, transfer to UTV at Qiankunling to rush to the top! 20 minutes of cloud-bending on the edge, kids keep saying “Wow” all the way, remember to fasten their seat belts~ 2⃣ Drive Straight to the Summit (Lazy Choice for Parents with Kids!) 300 RMB per car to drive directly to Xingyun Camp entrance, super convenient for pushing strollers and carrying gear! But each person still needs to buy a 120 RMB ticket, prepare cash or mobile payment in advance~ ⛺ Sleep at the Cloud Peak! 3 Family-Friendly Hotel Recommendations Xingyun Tent Hotel ⛺ (King of Views, kids love the spherical rooms) ► Open the door to see Gongga Snow Mountain! Lie in bed and watch the golden sunlight on the mountain, 270° floor-to-ceiling windows let the sea of clouds roll beneath your feet, kids point outside the window and say “like cotton candy”~ One night 800-1200 RMB, great value for money! Xingpo Resort Hotel 🏢 (Trendy Choice, super close walk) ► Glass rooms converted from containers, high aesthetic and great for photos! 5 minutes walk to the viewing platform, take a stroll with kids to see the sea of clouds and sunrise, some rooms have a side view of Gongga, one night 1200+, perfect for families who like a little romance~ Xingpo Mountain-view Villa 🏠 (Exclusive for the wealthy, private family choice) ► Detached wooden house with maximum privacy!

The sea of clouds surges like a molten gold waterfall, Gongga’s main peak lights up, kids instantly quiet and mesmerized, remember to dress kids warmly~ ► Cliffside Café: Hold a latte with the snowy mountain in the frame, take a “little adult” photo of your kid, and instantly get hundreds of likes on social media📸 ► Night Star Gazing: Wrapped in the park’s military coat, watch shooting stars streak past the snowy peaks with your kids and exclaim together, a memory to last a lifetime! 📌 Blood and Tears Tips for Traveling with Kids (Must Read!) ⚠ Altitude Sickness Warning: 3600 meters elevation, prepare glucose oral solution for kids in advance, more effective than oxygen bottles! Don’t let kids run too fast~ ⚠ Temperature Swings: In August, 25℃ during the day with tank tops, but drops sharply to 5℃ at night! Bring kids a windbreaker, which keeps warm and doubles as a photo prop~ ⚠ New Traffic Control Rules: Fixed times for driving cars up and down the mountain (check official website), follow the lead car, no overtaking, safety first! 🎒 Kids Gear Checklist (Don’t Miss!) ► Windproof Three-Piece Set: Windbreaker + fleece + knit hat, prepare kids’ sizes in advance~ ► Life-saving Essentials: Glucose oral solution, thermos with ginger tea, a sip warms kids up instantly~ ► Photo Gear: Cowboy hat + sunglasses + ethnic-style small scarf, dress kids as “little explorers,” wasteland style is super eye-catching! 🌠 August Exclusive Bonus for Kids!
