Discovered a secluded cloud hiking spot in Wenchuan with few people and stunning scenery

Escape the city plan🔥 Come to Wenchuan Happy Ranch to see the ultimate views of snow-capped mountains and deep canyons together🏔

For self-driving navigation, just search "Wenchuan Happy Ranch" and you’ll find it. The whole route is a feast of beautiful scenery! The best part is standing on the ridge line, with towering snowy mountains on the left and a deep canyon on the right—every shot looks like a blockbuster.

🚗 Transportation tips:
Self-driving is recommended, about a 3-hour drive from Chengdu. You’ll pass through Wenchuan County where you can restock supplies. The last section is a mountain road with beautiful scenery but many curves, so new drivers should drive carefully.

📸 Photo spots:
1. Viewing platform: 360-degree unobstructed viewing deck, the perfect spot to capture snow mountains and canyons in one frame.
2. Ranch meadow: In spring and summer, wildflowers bloom everywhere and herds of cattle and sheep create a healing atmosphere.
3. Starry sky camp: At night, you can capture ultra-clear views of the Milky Way (remember to bring a tripod).

💡 Useful tips:
• Altitude is about 2800 meters, so take care of sun protection and windproofing.
• Simple meals are available at the ranch, or you can bring your own picnic gear.
• Best visiting time is from April to October, with different scenery in each season.
• Recommended to spend 3-4 hours to walk slowly and take plenty of photos.

🍜 Nearby food recommendations:
On the way back, try local specialties in Wenchuan County: aged cured meat, cherries (seasonal), and tofu fish—favorites among locals.
