Shandan horse riding

If you travel to Gansu, don’t miss this treasure spot on the Hexi Corridor and at the foot of the Qilian Mountains - the Shandan Army Racecourse!! How to get there: We drove from Chengdu and visited Qilian Zhuoer Mountain in Qinghai to reach the "Shandan Army Horse Field" We chose a short route. There was a section of gravel road. Some of the bumpy sunset photos came from the section near Biandukou. The other route is easier to walk, about 40KM longer. Tickets: 65 yuan/person. Seniors and children can enter the scenic spot at half price. They can either choose to take a sightseeing car for 20 yuan/person or ride a horse. How to play: 1 Horse riding tour: From July 28, the price of horse riding at the military horse farm has been adjusted, see the last picture. We adjusted the horse riding the day before, and the price did not change much. The longest route we chose to ride on horseback was 300 yuan per person. Adding a coach was 300 yuan, and the total for four people was 1,500 yuan. It is very important to meet a good instructor when riding horses. The instructor took us to the depths of the cave gorge. The horses took us to climb mountains and wade in rivers. It was very novel for the children to sit on the horses and watch the horses drink water and eat grass. Experience 100 Generally, there are two main horse riding routes: one is the Luanniao Lake route, which takes 2 hours, and the other is the Kukongxia route, which takes 4 hours. Horse riding is a high-intensity exercise. You can choose according to your own conditions. The children have no problem riding the whole journey and have a great time. However, their legs and buttocks hurt after dismounting. 2. Hiking in the pasture: those who don’t want to ride horses can go to Luanniao Lake or Cave. Take a hike in the gorge, the scenery is very nice, go before sunset, and take photos along the way which is very photogenic. 30,000 Horses Drinking Water: Every day around 8:30 in the morning and after 4:00 in the afternoon, horses will drink water twice.
