Tiger Leaping Gorge Hiking Guide | Taking Life-Changing Photos on the Cliff Edge

Tiger Leaping Gorge Hiking Guide | Taking Life-Changing Photos on the Cliff Edge‼️|||Tiger Leaping Gorge truly deserves its place as one of National Geographic's top ten scenic hiking routes. The journey may be tough and leave you speechless, but the scenery is absolutely stunning, breathtaking, and worth it! Here are two recommended routes - please choose according to your fitness level‼️ ✅Two-Day Hiking Route👇 Naxi Yage Inn➡️Tea Horse Inn➡️Halfway Guesthouse➡️Teacher Zhang's Inn➡️Tintao Crossing (spot for life-changing photos) Day 1: Naxi Yage Inn→Halfway Guesthouse 📍Starting point: Naxi Yage Inn (recommend hiring a private car to save time, challenge the "28 Bends", take a short rest at Tea Horse Inn, then head to Halfway Guesthouse. This section has the most beautiful and essential views - catching the evening sunset on Jade Dragon Snow Mountain is incredibly beautiful! There are many supply points along the way, so travel light! Tiger Leaping Gorge punishes everyone who carries heavy loads!) 🏡Accommodation: Halfway Guesthouse (book 20 days in advance! Don't miss the "Mind-Blowing Terrace") Day 2: Halfway→Middle Tiger Leaping Gorge (energy-saving essential version‼️) 🌄Morning: Watch sunrise from the terrace, depart at 9am downhill, pass Dragon Cave Waterfall, lunch at Teacher Zhang's Inn, final destination: Tintao Crossing Coffee Shop - the prime spot for your "life-changing photos"! For the return journey, recommend taking the Sky Ladder up, or the 168-step Brave Cloud Ladder down (70° vertical descent, super thrilling). Be sure to stay safe, and those with fear of heights should choose carefully. 🚌Return journey: Around 3:00pm, take the bus from Teacher Zhang's back to Lijiang (2-hour ride). If you're late, you'll need to hire a private car - about 350 yuan to Lijiang during low season. ✅One-Day Hiking Route👇 Tea Horse Inn➡️Halfway Guesthouse➡️Take transportation to Teacher Zhang's Inn, after lunch head to➡️Tintao Crossing Coffee Shop (for life-changing photos)➡️Return to Teacher Zhang's Inn via the Brave Sky Ladder. 💰💰💰Passage fee: 15 yuan per person, life-changing photos: 38 yuan for three photos, 98 yuan for five photos ✔️Equipment: Hiking poles (must be checked in on flights‼️), non-slip shoes, sunscreen, windbreaker, one spare T-shirt ✔️Travel light: Ample supplies along the route, just bring enough water + energy bars. ✔️Be extremely careful when taking photos near cliff edges, watch out for head bumps on rocks, and definitely pack minimally!
