I'm back from Mount Savu! I've always wanted to climb Mount Savu, but I could never find a companion. This time, I finally got up the courage to go to the snowy mountain by myself🏔️. Here are some of my travel tips: ❤️Should I join a tour group? 🔹Making travel plans is too painful for a lazy person like me, so I booked a tour directly. 🔹Luckily, the tour group I joined was quite reliable, which made my travel experience super good. They were equipped with professional certified guides to escort us throughout the journey🧑‍✈. Not only did they know the route like the back of their hand🗺, but they could also vividly share many local legends📜. I really enjoyed the stories about Mount Savu told by the guide😃. 🔹Moreover, they also thoughtfully prepared high-quality equipment🛠, such as warm and non-slip ice claws and snow covers🧥. 🔹The breakfast and dinner at the campsite were also amazing🥘. I really enjoyed chatting with friends around the bonfire, and the food was local Sichuan-western cuisine🌶, Tibetan hot pot! The steaming hot food warmed my stomach and my heart, making me no longer feel lonely traveling alone💖. 👇Click on the Trip.com Business Card below to get the contact information of the tour group～ ❤️Savu Main Peak vs. New Route: Which one to choose? Mount Savu is divided into the Savu Main Peak (5175m) and the Savu New Route (5060m). Because the new route is shorter, has a lower altitude, and takes less time, I chose the Savu New Route. If you are not in good physical condition, I recommend climbing the Savu New Route, as the scenery is not much different from the main route. ❤️How to play the Savu New Route? Here's my 2-day, 1-night itinerary with the tour group: D1: Chengdu → Wolong → Balang Mountain → Cat Nose Ridge → Siguniangshan Town → Xiaojin County → Savu Base Camp D2: Savu Base Camp → Transfer → Hiking Start Point → Summit Mount Savu → Savu Base Camp → Return to Chengdu ❤️What should I pay attention to? I won't list the equipment and costs that you can easily find online. Here are some details worth noting: ⚠️Travel Tips 1️⃣First-timers beware! This is not as easy as the internet says. It's not just about being able to walk! 2️⃣Don't take off your clothes easily during the climb to the summit, even if you feel hot and sweaty, otherwise, you can easily get sick. 3️⃣Your feet can easily get numb after walking for a long time, so remember to bring foot warmers to take care of your feet. 4️⃣Be sure to bring a thermos and hot water. At high altitudes, water will freeze into slush and be undrinkable. 5️⃣There may be thin ice hidden on the ground when descending, so knee pads can be very useful. Be sure to bring them. 6️⃣If you have a fitness habit, it is recommended to suspend aerobic exercise one or two weeks before departure, as this will help alleviate altitude sickness.

Quick-drying clothes and pants: wick away sweat during hiking to keep your body dry. Hiking socks: thick socks prevent blisters, it is recommended to bring an extra pair. Sun hat, gloves, hiking boots, sunscreen, and lip balm: the plateau has strong ultraviolet rays, so pay attention to protection. Bring trekking poles to reduce knee pressure. Altitude Sickness Prevention: Siguniang Mountain and Savu Shenshan are at high altitudes, so acclimatize to the plateau environment in advance. Avoid strenuous exercise, drink plenty of water, and prepare anti-altitude sickness medication (such as Rhodiola and ibuprofen). Food: Bring some high-energy, lightweight foods, such as energy bars, nuts, chocolate, dried fruit, and compressed biscuits, to replenish energy in a timely manner. Summiting Tips: Walk slowly in small steps: don't rush, adopt a slow pace with small steps, maintain a steady rhythm, and avoid excessive physical exertion. Rest for 5-10 minutes every 30-60 minutes of walking. Replenish water and energy during breaks, but don't stay too long to avoid your body cooling down. 👉️Recommended Nearby Attractions: Siguniang Mountain is a landmark attraction in Western Sichuan, consisting of four snow-capped mountains and known as the "Eastern Alps." There are abundant hiking trails here, such as Changping Valley, Shuangqiao Valley, and Haizi Valley, suitable for hikers of different levels. Daocheng Yading is known as the "Last Shangri-La," with three sacred mountains (Xiannairi, Yangmaiyong, and Xianuoduoji) and several alpine lakes (such as Pearl Lake, Five-Color Lake, and Milk Lake).

Since many snow-capped mountains in western Sichuan were closed, the popularity of Mount Savu has skyrocketed! Especially the main peak of Savu😎, it is good for beginners, the scenery is beautiful, and the key is that it is only over 1k😍, and it is all-inclusive at one price!

After Mount Siguniang Dafeng and Haba Snow Mountain were closed, there are fewer and fewer snow mountains suitable for beginners. Mount Sabu has recently become a popular destination, but is it really a snow mountain for beginners? Is it really difficult? New Route of Mount Sabu🏔️ 1. The round trip is about 7 km, with an elevation gain of 800 m. The actual altitude is over 4,800 m (there is a 5,175 m sign for taking photos). It has snowed heavily recently! You can rest assured to go. 2. You need to take a car from the accommodation to the starting point of the hike, which takes about 1 hour and 20 minutes. The road conditions are not very good. 3. The starting point of the hike is about 3,600 m. It is relatively flat at the beginning, with a small slope. The difficult part is where the snow line begins, and the slope also begins to increase. Take my advice and choose the new route of Mount Sabu! Overall, it is indeed easier than Dafeng, suitable for beginners with a sports background to climb snow mountains. Be sure to prepare sufficient equipment! About Equipment🧳 Upper body: quick-drying clothes + fleece + down jacket + windbreaker (you can also bring a thick down jacket) Lower body: quick-drying pants + fleece pants + windproof pants Head: quick-drying hat, warm hat, magic scarf/mask, sunglasses/ski goggles Hands: warm down gloves + fleece gloves Feet: mid-high waterproof hiking shoes + warm thick socks (2 pairs of wool socks) + snow gaiters + crampons Dry food: bring 1–2 meals (energy bars, chocolate, Snickers, bread, Coke, and other portable food) Backpack: 20–30 L, bring essential dry food and water when climbing to the top Daily necessities: raincoat, thermos, sunscreen ‼️Practical Advice: 1. Important! The outer windbreaker must be waterproof and windproof! This is really important. 2. Stop aerobic exercise half a month before departure, and consult a doctor one month in advance to take Rhodiola according to your physical condition. 3. Do not travel alone. Travel with your teammates (encourage each other), find a professional club, and find a professional guide! Don't force yourself if you feel uncomfortable! Don't joke about life safety.
