Daily Itinerary

Leave Lijiang for the overland journey toward Cizhong. The day follows the confirmed Peacock Mountain route, with village stops and viewpoints chosen according to road and weather conditions. Reach Cizhong in time for hotel check-in rather than treating the transfer as a short excursion.

Use Cizhong as the base for a measured day in the village and surrounding mountain landscape. The exact walking section and local stops depend on access, weather and the group's pace. Keep the evening unhurried before the higher road toward Deqin.

Continue from Cizhong to Deqin, gaining altitude as the route approaches the Meili Snow Mountain region. Use Feilaisi or another suitable viewpoint for mountain scenery if visibility allows. Road conditions, cloud cover and the onward arrangements in Deqin determine the final timing.
