Good to Know Before You Go

Balanced. Most days pair one main sightseeing area with local transfers and enough time to move between hotels without rushing every stop. Use the daily plan to understand the walking required around Spring City Golf’s Lake and Mountain courses and the travel time between overnight stops.
Season and Reservations
Yunnan can be visited in several seasons, with spring and autumn generally comfortable. Highland areas remain cooler and mountain weather can change quickly. For the 7-Day Yunnan Golf Tour, confirm current access and any timed entry for Bai culture and Erhai Lake after choosing the dates.

Daily Itinerary
Arrive in Kunming, meet the transfer and check in at the hotel. Keep the rest of the day light after the journey. The course confirmations and pickup time for the first round should be prepared before the evening ends.
Travel from the Kunming hotel to Spring City Golf's Lake Course for the confirmed round. Allow time for check-in, caddie or cart arrangements and any pre-booked club rental. Return to Kunming after the round unless the accepted hotel plan states otherwise.
Play the confirmed round on Spring City Golf's Mountain Course, then continue from the Kunming area to Dali. The tee time must leave a workable buffer for equipment, luggage and the intercity transfer. Check in after arrival in Dali.
Spend a non-golf day in Dali, choosing among Dali Ancient Town, Bai cultural areas and a suitable section of Erhai Lake. The final combination should reflect weather and the group's preferred pace rather than attempting every lake and mountain stop.
Visit the listed S-Bend viewpoint beside Erhai Lake before leaving Dali for Lijiang. Keep the sightseeing short enough to protect the intercity transfer and hotel check-in. Settle in Lijiang before the high-altitude golf day.
Play the confirmed round at Jade Dragon Snow Mountain Golf Club. The course sits at high elevation, so discuss fitness, weather and acclimatization before travel. Allow time for the outward transfer, course services and return to the Lijiang hotel.
Travel from Lijiang back to Kunming on the confirmed rail or flight service. Include equipment handling, local transfers and a suitable connection buffer in the schedule. Any same-day onward departure must be timed from the actual arrival in Kunming.
