4 Days 3 Nights Haba Mountaineering Tour

Itinerary Day by Day

Day 1 Lijiang Tour and Preparation for Ascending

You will meet your guide at an appointed place in Lijiang, and then you will start today’s tour before finally arriving at the guesthouse of Haba Village, where you will learn some basic knowledge. The village is located at the foot of Haba Snow-Capped Mountain.

The First Bay of Yangtze River

The First Bay of Yangtze River is actually the intersection of Yangtze, Nu and Lancang Rivers. The First Bay of Yangtze River is located at the east end of QinghaI-Tibet Plateau. The drastic drop in altitude make all these three rivers roaring past the bay.

Tiger Leaping Gorge

Due to the drastic fall, the river behind the Tiger Leaping Gorge looks a like an angry dragon. Thousands of tourists go to the gorge to admire the spectacular river view every year. The gorge is also a place of interest for hiking fanciers.

Please note that we will check your heart rate and the oxygen content in your blood at the guesthouse, whose altitude is 2600 meters. If the data is not satisfactory, the mountain might not be available for you.

Day 2 Trek to the Haba Base Camp

Today, you will spend 7 hours ascending to the 4200 meters high Base Camp of the Haba Snow-Capped Mountain. Please let us know if you have altitude sickness, your guide would help you lessen the symptoms.

Haba Snow-Capped Mountain

Standing 5396 meters above the sea level, Haba is most amateur climbers’ first mountain, because the height of the mountain is attractive, and the mountain is relatively smoother than most other giant mountains. You can see the Jade Dragon mountain on the top of the Haba Mountain.

Day 3 To the Summit!

In order to make sure you have enough time to trek to the top of the mountain and go back to the Base Camp, you need to get up at 3:00 am. Your luggage will be kept in the no.1 camp of the mountain, because the path to the summit is a little bit slippery.

You will see the Jade Dragon and Haba Mountains are separated by the Yangtze River on the summit. Please take photos as soon as possible, because we cannot stay too long on the summit.

Day 4 Drive Back to Lijiang

Today, you will descend to the Haba Village, and then drive back to Lijiang after visiting the Heihai Lake, where you can admire painting-like plants and water. Thank you for traveling with us and wish you all the best!

I Left My Heart In Zhangjiajie

I'm a Singaporean traveller who booked a private solo tour. I chanced upon AOT after I googled and decided to travel last min. My planner from AOT named Rita was very patient towards all my request and changes, she is knowledgeable and provided excellent advice for my 8 days trip arrangement from Shanghai, Zhangjiajie N Chongqing. Although there were very minor hiccups just like any overseas holiday, it was still a well planned trip.

I would like thank all my tour guides and drivers (师父) for looking after me so well. Special mention to Zhangjiajie Tour Guide named Ms Rita Wang, she looks after her client with her sincerest heart into the smallest details such as eating habits and my lifestyle. (Example: Turning A/C on knowing we Singaporeans can't live without A/C in car & also I don't even have to look at menu to order food becos she knows what I want to eat) Also thank you 杨师父 who tagged team with Rita, he is a very good skilled safe driver and knows how look after me during long haul journey drive inter cities.

I would strongly reccomended anyone who wants to travel to look for Rita or her colleagues from Asia Odyssey Travel.

Lastly, thank you to all whom I've crossed path during my trip. I'm grateful to all people in China for the warm hospitality. 感恩大家的招待和爱。
