⚠️ practical tips
1. There are many mosquitoes in the mountains, so prepare mosquito repellent throughout the process; remember to bring replacement clothes and slippers when rafting;
2. At night, you need to wear a thin coat to see the starry sky on the terrace of the homestay, and the temperature difference between day and night in the mountains is large;
3. Don't buy low-priced tickets sold by roadside vendors, they are all invalid tickets, and it is more reliable to buy tickets through regular channels;
4. You must wear non-slip hiking shoes when hiking/taking wild roads, download offline maps in advance, and bring enough water and snacks; babies under 3 years old are not recommended to take wild roads, and it is safer to take scenic buses;
5. Cycling enthusiasts can choose novice-friendly routes: Chaimi Duo Line (40-50 kilometers, passing through Laoling Tunnel, Tianquan Mountain, Xixin Camp) or Yucun Line (around the river mouth reservoir, the scenery is super beautiful).
