Zhangjiajie in Winter: What to Know & Do

When is winter?

Typically December to February — coldest months with temperatures often between 0°C to 10°C (32°F to 50°F).

❄️ Weather & Scenery

Chilly but not freezing in lower elevations; higher mountains can get close to or below freezing.

Less rainfall compared to summer — clearer skies, crisp air.

Snowfall is possible, especially on the mountaintops, creating stunning white landscapes contrasting with the tall sandstone pillars.

Famous Avatar Mountains dusted with snow make for breathtaking views and amazing photography.

Fewer tourists than peak seasons — more peaceful, less crowded trails.
