｜Beginner-friendly hiking route! Eastern Alps. Peacock Mountain｜Novice-friendly hiking route! Eastern Alps! Yunnan Peacock Mountain Sea of ​​Flowers, Lakes, Plateau Haizi Hiking Secret Area Avoiding the popular tourist gathering places, along the Degong Highway, deep in the Nu River, I found a secret alpine lake with wild flowers blooming all over the mountains! No development, no tourists. During the entire hike, I could only hear the sounds of animals, the sound of the wind, the sound of clouds moving, and my own breathing. It was as if I was exploring an isolated fairy tale world. It still feels too good to be true when I recall it. Address: Peacock Mountain Pass In the middle of the Degong Highway from Meili Snow Mountain in Deqin to Bingzhongluo in Nujiang Gongshan Mountain. Navigation search: Peacock Mountain Pass is enough. There is an intersection on the left before entering the Kongqueshan Tunnel. Turn up and drive there in about 20 minutes. It is easily accessible by an SUV. Cars must be careful to avoid the landslides and rubble along the road. Due to the construction of the tunnel, the road to the top of the mountain has gradually disappeared. People have maintained it, but the scenery is really worth it! There are two routes you can take for hiking: 1. Round trip 2 kilometers, arrive at Sanlian Lake and return. There is a short climb before reaching the lake. If you are bringing children, you can take a few more breaks. After arriving at the lake, it is basically a flat road.

This is not Switzerland! This is Peacock Mountain, the last secret place in Yunnan...|||Peacock Mountain is located at the border of Gongshan County and Deqin County, about 30 km south of Kawagebo Peak. The mountain is shaped like a pyramid, and looks like a peacock spreading its wings from afar, hence the name. It is also known as "Little Switzerland of Yunnan" for its rich and beautiful scenery. The mountain is shrouded in mist and covered in snow, with a thick layer of snow up to 3 meters deep covering the mountain like a thick quilt. Colorful prayer flags flutter in the wind, creating a stunning and magnificent view like a fairyland. 1️⃣How to get there? ▪️Peacock Mountain is located on the Deqin-Gongshan Highway, and is only accessible by car. There are few tours available. You can drive from Deqin County, Weixi County, Gongshan County, or Bingzhongluo. You can drive directly to the foot of the mountain. I drove a sedan, which was barely passable when there was no landslide. I recommend driving an SUV or off-road vehicle. ▪️Navigate to Peacock Mountain Tunnel, and do not enter the tunnel when you reach the entrance! Take the small road next to it to go up the mountain. Or navigate to "Peacock Mountain" (the peak) on Amap. ▪️The Deqin-Gongshan Highway is not easy to drive on, and is prone to landslides during the rainy season and snow and ice in winter. ▪️I recommend driving there if it is on your way. If it is not on your way, it will take at least 6 hours to drive round-trip from any of the four places mentioned above, and there is nothing else to do nearby. Please consider carefully. 2️⃣What to do? ▪️Hiking. The hiking distance is short, about 3 km round-trip, with little elevation gain. The average altitude is about 3,800 meters, and the highest altitude is close to 4,000 meters. ▪️Camping. There are many places to camp, and many locals go there for picnics. ▪️Photography. The mountain is really beautiful. Please remember to travel responsibly, take your trash with you, and protect the environment!
