Drive 2.5 hours from Chengdu to find a stunning blue ice waterfall

When winter comes, I want to play in the snow❄️
Drive 2.5 hours from Chengdu to find a hidden gem for playing in the snow
You can drive there and back in one day, hike in the snow,
and see stunning rime, blue ice waterfalls, and babbling streams...
It's like entering a white fairy tale world~
If you're planning to go, save this guide first~

📍: Longcanggou National Forest Park, Ya'an
🧭: Navigate to "Longcanggou Scenic Area Parking Lot"

Longcanggou mainly has two attractions: Diecui Stream and Tiansheng Bridge.
Diecui Stream is a great place to escape the summer heat, while Tiansheng Bridge is the place to see snow in winter!
Take a bus from the scenic area entrance to Tiansheng Bridge, which takes about 40 minutes.
Tiansheng Bridge is a complete circular hiking route, with a total length of 2 km, which takes about 4 hours to complete (including time for playing in the snow, taking photos, and eating).
After playing, wait for the bus to go down the mountain at the drop-off point.
Tiansheng Bridge is over 2,000 meters above sea level, so you don't need to worry about altitude sickness and can play with peace of mind.

✨✨
Preparation before travel:
1️⃣ Prepare dry food. Food is only available at the entrance and outside Tiansheng Bridge, and there is no food in the hiking area.
2️⃣ Prepare warmers, gloves🧤, hats🎩, scarves🧣, and thick clothes!
3️⃣ If you plan to go there and back in one day, it is recommended to leave Chengdu at 7 am and return on the same day.
4️⃣ Be sure to prepare crampons, hold the handrails, and be careful on the slippery boardwalk! You can also rent crampons at the entrance of Tiansheng Bridge for CNY 20/pair.
