Beidahu Ski Resort

4.6/5
356 reviews

Beidahu Ski Resort is located in the extension of the Changbai Mountains in Jilin City, Jilin Province, within the golden ski latitude belt at 43°N. The unique mountain shape, surrounded by mountains on three sides, makes the area less windy in winter with a suitable climate. The average temperature is approx. -10°C, and the ski season can last for more than five months. The main peak, Nanlou Mountain, sits at an elevation of approx. 1,400 m, making it the highest peak in Jilin City. The mountain has a vertical drop of nearly 900 m, and the slopes range from gentle to steep, covering multiple gradients to meet the different needs of beginners to advanced skiers. The resort's snow is dry, loose, and nearly powdery. Thanks to its high-quality powder snow resources, it is known as a "powder snow paradise." This place has hosted the 6th Asian Winter Games, multiple National Winter Games, and important events such as the FIS Freestyle Ski World Cup and alpine skiing point races, making it one of China's key ice and snow competition and training bases. In addition to daytime skiing, the resort also offers evening sessions. The nearly windless conditions in winter create a unique experience for night skiing — fewer people, quiet snow, stars overhead, and vast slopes beneath your feet, completely different from the daytime. In winter, the mountains often display spectacular rime ice, with ice-coated trees complementing the powdery snow and adding a distinctive touch to the resort. Beidahu is equally pleasant in summer, with high forest coverage, where visitors can hike along mountain trails or go cycling, enjoying a cool retreat amid green mountains and clear waters. The resort features a comprehensive service center integrating ski equipment rental, dining, shopping, and leisure, and has a ski school offering graded instruction, suitable for skiers of all levels and family vacations.

Songhua River

4.6/5

Songhua River originates from Changbai Mountain Tianchi and flows from southeast to northwest through Jilin City. The river's name comes from Manchu, meaning "Heavenly River." The river winds through the city, creating various river bends and encircling the city, which is why Jilin City is known as the "River City." After leaving Jilin, the river meets the Nenjiang at the Sancha River Mouth in Fuyu, turns northeast to flow through the Harbin and Jiamusi areas, and then flows into the Heilongjiang, serving as an important tributary of the Heilongjiang river system. In winter, a major feature of the river section in Jilin City is the rime ice. Water released from the Fengman Reservoir keeps parts of the river from freezing in winter. The water vapor from the river surface cools and condenses on the branches along the banks, forming a crystal-clear rime ice view. Strolling along the river, you can enjoy the scenery where the river surface, trees, and urban view complement each other; in the early morning, when the river mist has not yet dispersed, the branches on both banks are covered with ice flowers, making the view particularly distinct. In other seasons, walking along the river also allows you to experience the urban view of the river flowing through the city, while traveling upstream reveals Songhua Lake, which is surrounded by mountains.

The overall environment was quite nice, but the glass on the cable car was a bit scratched, with significant human-caused wear and tear, which greatly affected taking photos. I suggest putting up a sign to prevent people from scribbling on the glass.

Beidahu Ski Resort offers great value for money with its night skiing sessions, including afternoon and evening sessions from 2 PM to 4 PM and 6 PM to 9 PM. Overall, the service is excellent, and safety measures are also good. The staff at the food court are also very friendly and helpful.

Wolongtan is worth a climb. There were very few people the first two days of the National Day holiday. The stairs are great for taking photos. It would be even more beautiful later when the leaves turn red. The boat trip takes an hour and a half, and three hours round trip, which is a bit tiring. But I saw the sunset, absolutely stunning.

Zhuque Mountain, with a maximum elevation of 817 meters, is the highest of Jilin's four famous mountains. I climbed Zhuque Mountain on October 3rd. I took a taxi; it's quite close to the city center. Sometimes the climb got congested; there were restrictions on the number of people going to the summit. I didn't reach the top; I came down at the intersection of the uphill and downhill paths. You still have to take the sightseeing bus, but there's a queue for that too. You can take bus 333 from the grass skiing area. In conclusion: Don't come during holidays. Don't bother climbing mountains during holidays.

It is best if the hotel is closer to the Songhua River so that you can go there in the morning and evening. The scenery is very different during the day and at night. In the morning breeze, when night falls, stroll along the bank of the Songhua River, with a gentle breeze and a crescent moon...

The venue isn't very big, and you can visit it together with the meteorite museum. The stamps are all on the first floor of the meteorite museum, but the quantity is limited. There's a coffee shop there that you can try; the photos there are sure to turn out great.
