Gongga Snow Mountain

The moment I saw Gongga Snow Mountain was really shocking! Because the whole journey was up the mountain, it was all winding mountain roads, climbing up in circles. At that time, we were turning and climbing the mountain. Without our knowledge, just after turning a corner, Gongga Snow Mountain suddenly appeared in front of us. It was so spectacular! So exciting! So excited!

As soon as I got off the bus, I saw a row of photographers with tripods, waiting to show off their skills with great enthusiasm.

The wind on the mountain was very strong and the temperature was very low, especially after the sun went down. So if you want to go up, be sure to bring your thickest clothes! At about 6:30, the sunset really shone on the top of Gongga Snow Mountain, and everyone was excited like crazy. It was really a lucky day! I saw the King of Shu Mountains - Gongga Snow Mountain, and it was a golden mountain in the sun! Magnificent! It can only be described as magnificent!

The Gongga Snow Mountain in the evening was not dyed golden, but only showed the tranquility of a giant.

In the afternoon, I will go to Hailuo Bay to touch the mysterious and sacred Gongga Snow Mountain in my heart. It takes about an hour to take a bus from the entrance of the scenic area to the No. 4 viewing platform. On weekdays, of course, you can walk from No. 1 to No. 4, but now it is winter, and other places are no longer suitable for walking and viewing, so I just sit to the end. You can take a cable car directly to the glacier, or you can hike through the primeval forest to reach the glacier. The beauty of the scenery along the way is worth any difficult trek. God once again affirmed our character and gave us two hours of excellent weather. The Gongga Snow Mountain, which is hard to find all year round, is so clearly presented in front of us. Gongga Snow Mountain is the beauty in dreams, the distant beauty, the untouchable beauty, and the extremely elegant beauty. Going all the way down is the glacier, and the fog is coming. At the moment when the fog blocked the road, I kissed her, and the trip was almost perfect. The close proximity of the Gongga Mountains and ancient glaciers made me feel that this winter might become a winter finale, a song written and sung to myself as the ultimate memory.

The road was really dusty and dangerous... bumpy, icy, slippery, gravelly, and several tractors tied ropes to each other to pull slowly up. In places where we couldn't go up, we got off the car and worked together to pull the tractor. The icy road was slippery, and I even fell down...

Finally, after eating dirt all the way, we finally arrived, tears streaming down my face. Just to see it up close - when I felt close at hand and saw the reflection of the snow-capped Gongga Snow Mountain in the lake, I was so excited. The 7,000-meter-high Gongga Mountain is right in front of us, and the weather is very good. There are no clouds blocking the main peak, so you can fully see its majestic appearance. It's a bit of a pity that taking pictures of the reflection requires a still lake without wind, but it doesn't matter. Seeing its majestic majesty up close is already very satisfying [strong] Give yourself a thumbs up [love]

It is so big and spectacular. Compared with the snow-capped mountains I saw along the way, it is even more awesome!

Riding the tractor down the mountain was more painful than going up the mountain. Anyway, after returning, my waist was completely unable to straighten up, and I inhaled more dust than I would have in 10 years that day... So I advise everyone to wear a mask. My clothes and backpack were all covered with dirt. Back to the inn, we rested for a while, asked the boss to cook us some noodles, ate a few bites, and then continued on our way!

Finally reaching the top of the mountain, I turned around and looked. The Gongga Peaks appeared in front of me at a level angle, as if they were within reach, yet so far away. Under the cloudy sky, the mountains were majestic and towering, like a beautiful picture of snow-capped mountains full of fighting spirit, courageous to fight, and not defeated by the dark clouds.

Gongga Snow Mountain, with an altitude of 7,556 meters, is the highest mountain in Sichuan Province and is known as the "King of Sichuan Mountains". The mountain is full of high peaks, deep ice and snow, and many obstacles. It is a famous mountain that is extremely popular among mountaineering enthusiasts.

Gongga is definitely a cost-effective sightseeing and hiking route in western Sichuan. It is not a scenic spot and does not require tickets! But be careful about altitude sickness. Also, don't go during the National Day holiday. There are too many people. In 2018, there will be difficulties in food and accommodation! September or after the National Day is the best time to go. It is very difficult to cross the 4,700-meter pass in winter. This problem exists before May. There is a lot of rain from June to August. Pay attention to protecting the environment. There is already a lot of garbage inside. Take the garbage out of the mountain to protect the environment.

The King of Shu Mountains, Gongga Snow Mountain, was clearly displayed before us. This was the first time I saw Gongga Snow Mountain clearly.

It’s so hard to see. I’ve been to Sichuan No. 4 four times, and this is the first time I’ve seen its true appearance!

Gongga Snow Mountain.....good and worth recommending.

It's really beautiful. Friends who like self-driving tours can go and have a look.

The highest snow-capped mountain in western Sichuan is Mount Gongga, the main peak of the Hengduan Mountains. With an altitude of 7,556 meters, Mount Gongga’s power does not lie in its height but in the difficulty and lethality of climbing. Since Joseph Rock introduced Mount Gongga to the world, a total of 24 people have successfully climbed to the top, but 20 of them have died there. Mount Gongga is also the most mysterious mountain that is hard to see. There are only a few places where people can see its pyramid-shaped main peak when the weather is fine. When we passed the Jianziwan Pass, we encountered construction blocking the road, and the parking position just happened to overlook the main peak of Gongga! I took this photo of "Gongga God Encounter" through the car window.

November 30, 2018, Zheduo Mountain

I have been here when the sun was shining, the warm light and the beautiful scenery are mesmerizing

The glacier is formed by the ice flow of Mount Gongga and is the glacier closest to the city with the lowest altitude.

Mount Gongga is located in the south of Kangding, Sichuan Province. It is the main peak of the Great Snow Mountain. There are 45 peaks with an altitude of more than 6,000 meters around it. The main peak stands on the top of the peaks with an altitude of 7,556 meters. It is 6,000 meters higher than the Dadu River on its east side and is known as the "King of Shu Mountains".

The clouds on Mount Gongga began to dissipate rapidly, and even the main peak of Gongga was about to emerge. It was only then that I realized that the angle used to view Gongga here was very similar to the famous Yaha Pass.

In 2015, when I was waiting for Gongga at Gaolusi Mountain, I encountered the most beautiful dawn of my trip to Tibet. Also, while watching Gongga, I encountered the most beautiful sunset of my trip to Tibet on this hill in Xinduqiao, the most dreamy sunset over Jinshan Mountain. A more accurate description should be the colorful Gongga under the sunset.

The title of the Queen of Shu Mountain is not an exaggeration. She stands in the heart of the Hengduan Mountains, looking out at everyone entering and leaving G318. You and I cannot escape her eyes.

I kept looking for you all the way through western Sichuan but I couldn't see you. The King of Shu Mountain never reveals his true face easily. However, when I was leaving Xichang Moonlight City, I happened to see your kingly face outside the plane window.

Around noon, the wind blew away the clouds and the blue sky, yes, the blue sky, gradually, Mount Gongga became clearer and clearer. We excitedly used our cameras to capture every movement. In Tibet, seeing the sacred mountain depends on luck and fate, and it seems that we have it this time.

I stared at the snow-capped mountains without blinking, and tears were about to burst out. Was it because I was nostalgic for the beautiful scenery or was afraid to face the life on the return journey? The snow-capped mountains were so spectacular and moving when seen with the naked eye, but when captured with a camera, they were not so magnificent at all.

There is often a picture of opening your arms to embrace the earth! There, you suddenly feel that what you are embracing is the breath of life!

Mount Gongga is the highest mountain in Sichuan, and its mountain range runs roughly from north to south. The east side of Gongga is well-developed scenic spots such as Hailuogou and Yanzigou, which are suitable for sightseeing. The west side has almost no commercial development and is a paradise for hiking and photography enthusiasts.

There are many places to view Gongga Snow Mountain, including the famous viewing platform Niubei Mountain, Hailuogou on the east side, and Yaha Pass and Zimei Pass on the west side. Among them, Zimei Pass has the best view, and the snow-capped mountains are very stunning. In the evening when the weather is good, you can also see the golden mountain in the sun. Of course, the charm of Gongga is not only the stunning snow-capped mountains, but also the lakes and villages around the mountains. Gongga Temple, Zimei Village, Wuxuhai, Bawanghai, Basongcuo, and the two sister valleys of Hailuogou and Yanzigou are all beautiful scenery developed by the Gongga Mountain System, which are worth exploring slowly.

The King of Shushan is majestic, pure, and quiet.

The title of King of Shushan is not given for nothing! Well-deserved!

I didn't take the conventional route to see it. There is a village called Jiagenba to the south of Xinduqiao. From there, I turned east and walked all the way. The road was very bad, and it can be said that there was basically no road. I climbed to a pass, and the sun was about to set, and finally I saw Gongga.

The local Tibetans can't explain the bad road, so there are no public services.

Gongga Peak and Icefall. Photos don't show how majestic the scenery is, you have to experience it in person. A huge glacier flows straight from Gongga Peak, stretching from the peak at an altitude of more than 7,000 meters to the Chengmen Cave at 2,850 meters above sea level.

Take the cable car up to Hailuogou, and you can see the sacred mountain Gongga from a distance, but this is indeed a matter of luck. The snow mountain is shrouded in fog most of the time, and when it reveals its true appearance depends on its mood. When I went to the cable car station that day, I felt that the weather was not so good. After taking the cable car up, it was still foggy. I thought that my luck was really bad. But when we went around to the back, the fog suddenly dispersed, and the sacred mountain showed its face. It was so spectacular! I heard from the staff that it snowed all night the night before we went up. All the roads and branches in Hailuogou were covered with ice and snow. For southerners like us, seeing snow is simply exciting! From the cable car, take a shuttle bus to Camp No. 3 and start walking on the rainforest trail. It is another scene. The dense woods and wetlands are like a natural oxygen bar. Hailuogou is really worth a visit. Snow mountains, hot springs, and rainforests always give you different scenery.

Gongga Snow Mountain is a group of snow-capped mountains near Hailuogou. We were lucky that day and the weather was great! Our group of 4 took the cable car to Camp 4 before 12 o'clock and enjoyed the beautiful scenery.

I took the hiking route of the south line of the west line of Gongga Mountain. Although I gained a lot along the way, the most exciting part was undoubtedly Gongga Mountain. But seeing the snow-capped mountains also requires a bit of luck, and rain, snow and fog are very troublesome.

Gongga Snow Mountain is known as the "King of Shu Mountains" and is revered as a sacred mountain by Tibetans.

Mount Gongga is located on the eastern edge of the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, in the middle section of the Great Snow Mountain in the Hengduan Mountains, between the Dadu River and the Yalong River. "Mount Gongga" means "the highest snow mountain" in Tibetan. The main peak is 7,556 meters above sea level, and the peak platform is covered with ice and snow all year round. It is one of the most unique glacier wonders in my country.

Gongga Snow Mountain is located 55 kilometers south of Kangding City. It is the highest mountain in Sichuan Province and is known as the "King of Shu Mountains". The mountain is full of high peaks, deep ice and snow, and many obstacles. It is a famous mountain that is very popular among mountaineering enthusiasts.

I can only view the Gongga Snow Mountain from a distance. After all, it is more than 7,000 meters high. I went to Niubei Mountain specifically to see the golden mountain in the sun. It is majestic and magnificent, and it is worthy of being the highest mountain in Sichuan.

The people along the way are simple, the mountains and rivers are magnificent, and there are snow scenes

How can I put it? Gongga Snow Mountain is really beautiful and shocking. From the top of Hongyan, you can see Gongga from afar. Above the clouds, there is a row of snow-capped mountains, especially the golden mountain in the sun at sunrise. I can't express the beauty of it with photos.

Mount Gongga is located in the south of Kangding, Sichuan Province. It is the main peak of the Daxue Mountain and one of the high mountains in China with well-developed marine mountain glaciers.

There are 45 peaks with an altitude of more than 6,000 meters around it. The main peak is 7,556 meters above sea level, which is the highest peak in Sichuan Province. The main peak is composed of granodiorite. Affected by the ocean monsoon, it has formed a variety of vegetation and natural ecological environment. There are two sister valleys in the mountain: Yanzigou and Hailuogou. Among them, Yanzigou is also known as the Eastern Alps. The largest Hailuogou glacier on the east slope is 14.2 kilometers long. Under the long-term glacial action, the peak has developed into a cone-shaped large-horned peak surrounded by 60° to 70° cliffs, making it difficult to climb.



Gongga Snow Mountain is known as the King of Mountains in Sichuan

A close look at Gongga Snow Mountain from Yaha Pass ~ The Gongga Snow Mountain we had been looking forward to finally came true thanks to God! So excited!

This is the legendary holy mountain. It was my first time to see it up close. I found it to be so beautiful and magnificent.

At each different pass or angle, this king of Shu Mountains still looks like a mountain when viewed from the front and a peak when viewed from the side, with different heights and distances.

Mount Gongga (Minya Konka) is located in the south of Kangding, Sichuan Province, and is the main peak of the Great Snow Mountain. There are 45 peaks above 6,000 meters in the surrounding area, and the main peak stands on the top of the peaks, with an altitude of 7,556 meters, 6,000 meters higher than the Dadu River on its east side. It is the highest peak in Sichuan Province and is known as the "King of Shu Mountains".

This is a photo of Gongga Snow Mountain taken at sunrise in Xinduqiao

Gongga Snow Mountain is so high that it reaches into the clouds, and its figure can be seen everywhere along the way.

How lucky I am to be able to see the full view of Gongga Snow Mountain. How many risks I took, how much suffering I endured, how many difficulties and obstacles I overcame, just to see its face. It is so beautiful.

Mount Gongga, 7556 meters above sea level, is the king of mountains in Shu. Because we arrived in the rainy season, we stayed too short. We can only say that we encountered the sacred mountain by chance and it left us with a very good impression. We will go there again in the future.

The King of Shu Mountains. I only took a photo of Gongga Mountain in the clouds at Niubei Mountain.

The scenery is unexpected, and looking at this most majestic mountain from afar, no words can describe it.

Gongga Snow Mountain = Hailuogou = close contact with glaciers = flamboyance and beauty

Gongga Mountain Scenic Area is located in Luding, Kangding and Jiulong counties of Ganzi Tibetan Autonomous Prefecture. It is a majestic and magnificent mountain range. It is the highest peak of Hengduan Mountains and the highest peak of Sichuan Province. It is known as the "King of Shu Mountains". Gongga Mountain is covered with snow all year round. When the weather is fine, you can see its beauty. In front of the mountain, people seem so small. Gongga Mountain is steep and tall. There is a 70-square-meter platform at the top of the peak. It is covered with snow all year round. When the sky is clear, "Gongga" means "snow white" in Tibetan.

The scenery on Gongga Snow is spectacular, and the Golden Mountain in the Sun is well-deserved.

Because winter has passed, the only other tourists I saw during the trip were at the foot of Gongga Snow Mountain. The pass now charges a 20 yuan ticket fee per person, but fortunately there is no garbage pollution in such places, and the local Tibetans are also very simple. The sunset is really beautiful, and the starry sky at night is worth waiting for.

For planes flying west, sit on the left side; for planes flying east, sit on the right side, and you can see the Gongga Snow Mountain.

It's a little hard to get to, but it's worth it. You will cry when you see the "King of Shushan"

Gongga, the king of Shushan, is the highest snow mountain in Sichuan, with an altitude of 7556 meters. Different directions and angles show us different Gongga. There are dozens of platforms to watch Gongga, but I think the best places are Yaha and Zimei. Gongga is a must-see for a man.

The first time I saw a real snow mountain, the shock was beyond my imagination

The King of Shu Mountain, the top of Shu Mountain, the golden mountain under the sun, is breathtakingly beautiful!

Those who hiked up also went down to the glacier.



It was really cold up there, so I had to wear something thicker when I got home. By the way, the fried potatoes at the cable car ticket office were really delicious! I didn’t know if it was because I was too hungry or something, but I ate two servings of potatoes.

When we reached the Yaha Pass, the huge figure of the King of Shu Mountains suddenly appeared outside the car window at the turning point, bringing us an unexpected shock! Only at this moment did we understand the true meaning of the King of Mountains, because his overwhelming figure and disdainful eyes forced everyone standing here to begin to examine their own weight in the world. This is the great Gongga, and his irreplaceable charm!

The second of the ten most beautiful mountains in China, the one that makes the wind stop, the King of Shu Mountains---Gongga!!!

"One year, one watch; one life, one Gongga!"

It is majestic and spectacular, but difficult to see as it is shrouded in clouds and mist.

The King of Shu Mountains! It is indeed true! In 2013, when we rode 318 to the Gaolusi Pass, we were lucky enough to see the true appearance of the Gongga Peak. It was so spectacular! Now that the Gaolusi Tunnel is open to traffic, I am happy for the local compatriots, but also feel sorry for today's travelers! Gaolusi is a good place to overlook the Gongga Snow Mountain, and the WINDOWS desktop above is needless to say!

Gongga Snow Mountain, also known as the King of Shu Mountains. It is the highest mountain in Sichuan and Shu, and the top of Shu Mountain. The height of 7556 meters is unmatched. On Niubei Mountain, you can see a large group of snow-capped mountains in all directions, and you will be deeply shocked by this group of snow-capped mountains. Every clear and cloudless morning, you can also see the absolute beauty of the golden mountain in the sun, and this beauty is fleeting, so you must be ready with your long guns and short guns, waiting for the most beautiful moment. Gongga Sacred Mountain plus the sea of ​​clouds is even more charming, just like a great wizard in a white robe standing on the horizon, guarding Shu, making Sichuan a prosperous land of abundance.

This is the most beautiful scenery I have ever seen, and I want to see it again in my lifetime. Whether it is the snow-capped mountains or the Milky Way, they are both unique!

The highest peak in Sichuan, amazing! Especially when you look at the towering snow-capped mountains with clouds and mist dissipating at Zimei Pass

It's so beautiful that you can't breathe. If I were a poet, it would be great.

This is the only way for 318. Please pay attention to the traffic conditions when the weather is cold and snowy. The scenery is beautiful, but it is easy to get stuck in traffic.

I passed Gongga Snow Mountain several times, but it was rare to see the top of the mountain.

There is a bus that goes directly to Gongga Snow Mountain, which is very convenient. The glacier is rare to see, it is super large and beautiful. Only true warriors have the energy to walk to the edge of the glacier and feel the icy air on their faces.

I went to Yaha Dumb, the road was so bad, it was dangerous

Hailuogou is the same place as Gongga. The glacier at the foot of the mountain

Since the nearby landscapes are at a relatively low altitude and the Gongga Snow Mountain is at a relatively higher altitude, the aerial photography effect is more spectacular.

Gongga Snow Mountain is also considered a part of Hailuogou Scenic Area. We can see this snow mountain from the No. 1 Glacier. Although we cannot get close to it, we can see the snow mountain top with long-term snow accumulation. The glaciers on Gongga Mountain are known to have three strange things: the first is that it is not cold, the second is that the ice avalanches, and the third is that the structure is all kinds of strange. We actually dug a piece of ice from the glacier. It is not transparent, a little dark, and a little yellow. It is really not very cold in the hand.

Although it is covered by clouds, its majesty can still be seen. It is worthy of being the king of Shu Mountain.

Gongga... You are worthy of being the king of Shu Mountain!!! When I arrived at Zimei Pass after a hard journey, a huge picture appeared in front of me. I can't describe the shock in my heart. The 7556-meter Gongga peak stood majestically in front of me, within reach. I can see the vicissitudes of its face and feel its magnificence. White clouds floated in front of it, and birds soared beside it. I can only describe it as holy.

I have seen Gongga Mountain from Niubei Mountain, Yaha Pass and Zimei Pass. I was shocked and fell in love with the snow-capped mountains from Niubei Mountain. In my opinion, Gongga Snow Mountain is the soul of western Sichuan. No matter from which angle, you will be infected by the majesty of Gongga Snow Mountain. If the transportation in ancient times was also developed, Gongga Snow Mountain might appear most frequently in the poems of Li Bai and Xu Xiake. In any case, if you like traveling, if you like adventure, if you like the feeling of being shocked, go to Gongga Snow Mountain, it will definitely not let you down.

The King of Shu Mountain is very spectacular and there are many viewing points to see.

The sacred Gongga Snow Mountain stands on top of the peaks, with an altitude of 7,556 meters. It is an internationally renowned alpine exploration and mountaineering destination, but it is also the most difficult large-scale extremely high mountain to conquer, and its summit is much more difficult than Mount Everest. According to statistics, only 24 people have successfully reached the summit, but 37 people have died during and after the climb, including 14 foreigners. We drove more than a thousand kilometers just to see the sacred mountain, and after waiting for a few days in hunger and cold, we were finally able to take satisfactory photos.

Gongga Mountain is amazing and magnificent! Since I saw the Golden Summit of Mount Emei two years ago, I have been thinking about it every day and finally I can go there. Zimei Pass is the only good place to see the whole Gongga Mountain. Those who love snow-capped mountains must visit it in their lifetime!
