Changping Valley - Siguniang Mountain

Changping Valley It is one of the three opened valleys of Mount Siguniang Scenic Park. It is a walking park, no bus is available. It is 29-km long and visitors need to start from the ticket office by a 10-minute’s bus ride to get to Lama Temple where you start to walk. At Lama Temple you can also hire horse to ride. Changping Gou Ticket office is near the road at upper part of Rilong town by the bridge. The walking trail is not steep and the first 4 km is well-paved boardwalk. Walking for around 12km into the valley one can reach Muluozi, the foot of Mt. Siguniang by its west side. Views of Mt. Siguniang from its west are totally different from that of the south. It shows you the big steep wall of this big mountain. After Muluozi, one can keep walking further for around another 12km to Chazi Gou, where the trail splits into two: the one goes to the north is to complete the popular Changping Gou Bipeng Gou Hiking and the trail goes to westward is to reach the end of Changping Valley and go further over the pass to Shuangqiao Valley. The 10-minute tourist bus is not obligatory however it saves you 2 hours of walking on the road from ticket office to Lama Temple (enter to the trail). Horse-riding service can be found by Lama Temple after you get off the tourist bus. The horses are Tibetan horses and not very big. When you ride the horse, a horseman or horsewoman will be leading the horse and tell you the safety tips about riding his/her horse. Riding a horse will not use the boardwalk but the horse trail next to the boardwalk. This valley is at the elevation over 3200 meters.
