Overview

Explore Pudacuo National Park and return to Shangri-La for Baiji Temple on this private day trip. Lake and forest walks fill the first part of the day, followed by a Tibetan home lunch and a hilltop view near Dukezong. Baiji Temple gives this itinerary a different finish from routes centred on Songzanlin. Its uphill approach can be shortened or omitted if you prefer less walking, while the park visit follows the sections open on your date.
