Introduction Horse Riding in Zhangjiakou

Introduction
Some information may have been translated by Google Translate

Zhangjiakou, a land of Yanzhao with a long history, has had an indissoluble bond with steeds since ancient times, and the custom of horseback hunting has been popular for a long time.

Excellent Natural Environment: Zhangjiakou has vast grasslands and diverse natural landscapes, such as Zhangbei Zhongdu Grassland and Grassland Sky Road. Zhangbei Zhongdu Grassland is the most intact original grassland so far. Its history can be traced back to the Liao Dynasty, when emperors came here for hunting and summer vacation.

Galloping on the Snowy Grassland: Zhangjiakou is covered in silver in winter, and the sound of horses' hooves stepping on the snow creates a rustling rhythm. In the snowfield next to the Swan Lake Scenic Area, the frozen lake and the white snow complement each other, and riding a horse past it feels like being in a dreamland.

Complete safety guarantee: The coaches in Zhangjiakou are mostly experienced local riders who are familiar with the habits of horses. Before you mount the horse, they will patiently teach you cold protection, warmth preservation, and riding skills. Throughout the riding process, they will keep a close eye on you and ensure your safety with their superb skills. The helmets and protective gear provided meet the standards of high-cold regions, and dedicated staff will assist you in wearing them correctly, allowing you to ride without any worries.

Multi-functional supporting facilities: Zhangjiakou horse farms are equipped with dressing rooms, rest areas and dining areas. Some scenic spots also provide a full range of Mongolian-style services. The resort has yurts and high-end Mongolian villas that can accommodate more than 1,000 people for dining and accommodation, and a variety of entertainment activities are also available.

When you swing up onto a horse and set foot on the land of Zhangjiakou, where ancient charm and modernity are intertwined, and grandeur and tenderness blend together, the snowflakes splashed up by the horse's hooves and the fragrant grass trampled underfoot will all transform into the most touching verses deep in your memory.

3 hours from Beijing, a great place for hiking and snow activities!

3 hours from Beijing, a great place for hiking and snow activities!

While everyone else is heading to Harbin, I took a different path and chose Huapiling in Chongli, Hebei. Here, the Nordic forest and Finnish fairy tales intertwine in a dreamy and romantic way. ❄️✨ The cold wind is as sharp as a knife in the icy world. However, the beauty here is breathtaking! But remember, if you are not fully prepared, do not set foot here lightly, the cold is no joke, it will really make you shiver. Although I have been here many times and have witnessed many people getting frostbite, I have also come up with a complete set of cold-resistant tips. 🚩❄️🧊 🎿 Before you set off, be sure to keep a close eye on the weather! If it is sunny, the normal three-layer dressing method is enough to cope. But if you encounter snow and strong winds, my dressing tips must be remembered. Especially when the wind is howling, there are many wind tunnels here, and the temperature can instantly drop to -25°C. 🌪️❄️☁️ Keeping your head warm is crucial: a balaclava with a thin neck gaiter and a thick neck gaiter, plus snow goggles and anti-freeze patches, are all essential. Snow goggles must be worn, and no skin should be exposed, otherwise, frostbite is not an exaggeration. 🧢🥽❄️ The upper body needs to be protected layer by layer: a quick-drying base layer with a thin fleece, then a down jacket and a hard-shell jacket, and the drawstring of the jacket must be tightened. If you have a snow suit, wear it, as it will be more effective in keeping you warm and waterproof. 👚🧥☃️ The lower body should not be ignored: quick-drying base layer with fleece pants, and thick fleece pants or ski pants, warm and flexible. 👖🧣🏂 Hand protection is also important: wear thin gloves first, then thick gloves, and finger gloves are useless here. 🧤🧤❄️ Feet need to be carefully protected: high-top waterproof shoes with two pairs of socks, plus snow gaiters, to keep out the cold. 👢🧦☃️ The phone must be placed in a warm inner pocket, and the camera battery compartment should also be covered with a warm baby to ensure the equipment works properly. 📱📷🔥 There are many things to keep in mind during the trip. If your private car has not been replaced with snow tires, do not drive up the mountain. Last year, I saw several private cars sliding into the ditch, and some cars were only 200 meters away from the highway toll station but could not climb the slope, and the whole family got out of the car to push the car to no avail. 🚗⛰️🚧 In addition, bottled water will only freeze into ice here, and after a bumpy ride, it will be difficult to drink a sip when you arrive in Beijing. 🧊💧🚗 📍 Huapiling, Chongli, Hebei 🚗 Travel time: 3.5 hours

Snow, ice crystals, rime, and windmills, you won't regret it this winter!

🎉Hey guys, how can you miss the snow-covered mountains and forests and the rime-covered fairyland in the winter? Today, I'm going to show you the winter treasure secret of Huapiling in the suburbs of Beijing, and let's start a journey of ice and snow together❄️✨ 🚗Transportation It is recommended to drive or join a tour group, and navigate to "Chengzidi Village", which is the gateway to Huapiling. It takes about 3.5 hours to drive from Beijing, and the scenery along the way is super beautiful, with snow-covered mountains and fields, instantly healing all fatigue. 🚶‍♂️Hiking route There are several hiking routes in Huapiling. Newbies can choose the 9 km small loop, starting from Chengzidi, enjoying the snow scenery all the way, with low climbing difficulty, and it takes about 4-5 hours to complete. You can also see the beautiful rime and windmills along the way, and you can take great photos with just a snap. 📸Photo spots 1️⃣Colorful houses: This is a popular photo spot in Huapiling, with colorful houses set against the snow, as if you are in a fairy tale world. 2️⃣Windmills: You can see huge windmills on the top of the mountain, with valleys and fields in the distance, giving a Nordic style. 3️⃣Snow forest: Walk into the forest, and the rime hangs on the branches, as if you are in the scene of Frozen. 🧣Equipment suggestions It is super cold here, and the temperature is about 15° lower than in Beijing. Thick down jackets, thermal underwear, hats, gloves, snow gaiters, and trekking poles are all necessary. If you want to take photos, remember to bring a pair of sunglasses to prevent snow glare. 🍽️Food arrangements There is no supply on the mountain, so you need to prepare lunch in advance. Beef jerky, chocolate, and sandwiches are good choices, and remember to bring a thermos, as hot water can warm your stomach. 🌟Notes • When hiking, just walk, and stop to take photos or eat, and pay attention to safety. • Some sections of the road are slippery when going downhill, you can try "butt descent", but be sure to pay attention to safety. • There are no toilets along the way, so go to the bathroom before you set off.

The Grassland Sky Road is definitely a must-drive route near Beijing!

The Grassland Sky Road is definitely a must-drive route near Beijing! It's just too beautiful! The Grassland Sky Road is located at the junction of Zhangbei County and Chongli District in Zhangjiakou City, with a total length of 132 kilometers. The average altitude is over 1400 meters, and it is 5-6 degrees lower than the city area in summer, making it suitable for weekend trips to escape the heat, about 260km from Beijing. The Grassland Sky Road is divided into the west line and the east line. The west line is 32 kilometers long and is mainly natural scenery; the east line is 100 kilometers long and is mainly human landscape. 🚏Recommended route: Enter from Huapiling and exit from Ye Huling, first take the east line; then enter from Ye Huling to Bailong Cave and take the west line. ⚠️Highlight: Be sure to set the waypoints on the navigation, otherwise it will default you to take the county road! ☘️Travel tips: Be sure to pay attention to sun protection and frost protection, the temperature difference between morning and evening is large, pay more attention to your body! 🍚Eating: The food is really not flattering, it is recommended to bring your own convenience food! 🏠Accommodation: The environment of the farmhouse is average, don't have too high expectations. 🎉Play: The scenery is excellent!

A super detailed travel guide to Huapiling Snow Town!

A super detailed travel guide to Huapiling Snow Town!

Did you know? There is a beautiful snow town near Beijing, with scenery comparable to Hemu in Xinjiang. It only takes 2.5 hours to get there from Beijing! Take the Capital Ring Expressway out of Beijing, and once you exit the Huapiling Tunnel, you'll enter the dreamlike world of Huapiling Snow Town in Zhangjiakou. 1. Scenic Spots The white village here is simply stunning, especially the colorful houses in the snowfield, which are the essence of Huapiling's scenery! There are two great places with colorful houses: one is the colorful wooden cabins on the mountain, like fairy tale forest cabins; the other is the brick houses at the foot of the mountain, each with its own charm. If you want to explore the colorful houses and camping spots on your own, you can, and it's a lot of fun. If you really can't find them, you can DM me, and I'll secretly tell my fans the exact coordinates. 😘 2. Photography Tips 📷 Want to take great photos? Listen to me! In terms of equipment, be sure to bring a drone. The aerial view of the entire snow town is amazing. As for cameras, a wide-angle lens is essential to capture the vast snow scenery and colorful houses. 3. Clothing Guide 🧥 If you're driving, a down jacket is usually enough. But if you plan to camp in the snow, you'll need to prepare well. The temperature difference between morning and evening in Huapiling is huge, and it can drop to minus 20 or 30 degrees at night! Wear a jacket and pants, fleece, and a down jacket, and don't forget a hat, gloves, thick socks, and outdoor shoes. Also, some sections of Huapiling have very deep snow, so if you're hiking, be sure to bring snow gaiters, or you'll be uncomfortable with snow in your shoes. The slopes are generally slippery, so ice cleats are also necessary for safety. 4. Vehicle Choice 🚗 The roads here are a bit picky about cars. It's recommended to drive an off-road vehicle or SUV. If your car has AT tires, you can drive; if it has road tires, be cautious and install snow chains, or you'll easily slip. Huapiling Snow Town is amazing, whether you want to enjoy the scenery, take photos, or experience snow camping. Start planning your ice and snow trip now! ❄️💖

The Grassland Sky Road that makes people both love and hate (with detailed guide)

The Grassland Sky Road that makes people both love and hate (with detailed guide)

Zhangbei Grassland Sky Road, makes people both love and hate! Reasons to love: It contains about 70% of the scenery of the Inner Mongolia grassland. If you consider it as an alternative to Altay, it is not an exaggeration. After all, it is so close, the scenery is so beautiful, and you can save on airfare. Not only is it completely free to enter, but it is also very close to Beijing, only a little over three hours by car, allowing for a same-day round trip. Reasons to hate: In recent years, the trend of commercialization has become increasingly evident, and during peak seasons, traffic jams often occur, which greatly affects the mood of the trip. So how can you have a fun trip and avoid traffic jams? Here are some recommendations for you: Zhangbei Grassland Sky Road is divided into the East Line and the West Line. Let's talk about the East Line first: East Line: This refers to the section from Yeguling to Huapiling. Everyone loves the East Line because the scenery is better, especially the Huapiling section, which is the most beautiful part of the entire Sky Road grassland! In autumn, it is like God's palette, full of colors. From Beijing, take the Jingli Expressway and navigate directly to Huapiling (3.5 hours, 230 kilometers). Enter from Huapiling and then return to Beijing directly from Yeguling. Be sure to go in this reverse direction to avoid traffic jams. Navigation points: Huapiling - Grassland Potala - Dahao River Mountain Scenic Area (optional) - Yeguling Toll Station - Beijing, total 6 hours, 340 kilometers. In this way, you can accurately and completely travel the East Line without encountering traffic jams. If you happen to catch the sunset, you can enjoy the beautiful sunset at either Bulada or Dahao River Mountain. Eating, lodging, and playing: The East Line is already quite developed, with very convenient eating and lodging along the way. There are also many children's playgrounds along the way, such as pirate ships and carousels. Horse riding and camel riding projects, as well as commercial streets, are everywhere, making it very suitable for family trips, rest, and recharging. West Line: Yeguling is the dividing line between the East and West Lines. From Yeguling westward is the West Line, which can now extend to Shangyi County. Although the West Line is not as beautiful as the East Line, it is quiet and natural. Friends who like tranquility and small, beautiful places can choose the West Line. Navigation points: South Gate 1 of the Sumo Martyrs Cemetery - Jiguan Mountain Scenic Area - Bailong Cave - Shirenbei - Shangyi County Dacaogou. (2.5 hours, 120 kilometers) Eating and lodging: You can stay at Dacaogou or return to Beijing. Refueling: Only Yeguling/Huanghuaping Service Area/Tianlu Archway has refueling/charging stations. Be sure to fill up when you encounter a gas station! Several extended routes: For those with ample time, from Huapiling, head north for 100 kilometers to reach Guyuan Grassland, which also has beautiful scenery. Further north: You can reach Datanzhen, Lightning Lake⚡️. (The "Hundred Mile Sky Road" in Inner Mongolia is here, and it charges a fee. Personally, I feel it is not as good as Zhangbei Sky Road.) Continuing north: You can go to Saihanba, Wulanbutong, Dali Lake, Yulongsha Lake, and China's most beautiful road, Dada Line, where the scenery is even more charming!
