Daily Itinerary
Leave Chengdu early and travel through the Wolong and Balang Mountain corridor to Mount Siguniang. Complete the outdoor-entry arrangements and take the permitted shuttle to the walking start near the monastery. Follow boardwalk and natural trail into Changping Valley, passing forest, streams and open meadow. Reach Muluozi camp, settle into the confirmed tent arrangement and enjoy the evening mountain setting.
Overnight: Muluozi camp
Today’s pace: Approximately 12 km walking after the road transfer
Leave camp after breakfast and continue deeper into Changping Valley. The route passes meadow and damp ground before returning to more enclosed forest and stony trail. Walk toward Shuidaba and Wugui Rock as conditions and the guide’s timing allow, then retrace the valley to Muluozi. Staying at the same camp means you can carry only the day’s essentials.
Overnight: Muluozi camp
Today’s pace: Approximately 16 km return
Enjoy breakfast at camp and pack for the return walk down Changping Valley. Follow the approach route through meadow and forest, allowing time for food and rest without losing the agreed meeting schedule. Take the shuttle back to the valley entrance and regroup for the road journey to Chengdu. The transfer leaves after the walking party has safely returned, so arrival time is flexible.
Overnight: Not included; Chengdu night recommended
Today’s pace: Approximately 12 km walking plus road transfer
