Tengger Desert Adventure Guide, embark on an extraordinary journey

If you crave a unique and thrilling desert trekking experience, then the three-day and two-night heavy-loaded Wuhu crossing of the Tengger Desert will definitely unlock a new experience for you! 【Itinerary】 Day 1: Start trekking 8 kilometers from 15:15, and arrive at the campsite 3 kilometers away from Swan Lake at about 18:50 (Swan Lake camping charges a fee of 20 yuan). Day 2: Break camp at 7:50 and trek 26 kilometers that day, passing through Wulan Lake and Suhaitu Lake, and finally arrive at the Sun Lake campsite at 18:00 (charging 20 yuan, with unlimited refills of hot water, water for washing face, brushing teeth, and using the toilet, meals are charged separately, and bathing costs an additional 40 yuan). Day 3: Break camp at 9:45, trek 11 kilometers, and arrive at the destination (Moon Lake Tourist Reception Center) at 13:50. 【Equipment and Supply Preparation】 Food: Prepare according to personal needs, the key is to ensure at least 2 liters of water per day (you will be very thirsty under the desert sun), and make separate arrangements if you want to cook. Supply points at Swan Lake, Wulan Lake, and Sun Lake are open, with mineral water for 5 yuan, drinks for 10 yuan, instant noodles for 15 yuan, and beer for 10 yuan. Clothing: There is a large temperature difference between morning and evening, so wear quick-drying base layers with fleece and jackets in the morning and evening; it is hot during the day's trek, so a single piece of fleece-lined quick-drying clothing is sufficient (wear according to preference, try not to choose black tops). Accommodation: The campsites at Swan Lake, Wulan Lake, and Sun Lake charge 20 yuan. If you do not want to spend money, you can camp 2 kilometers away from the campsite. It is recommended to decide whether to spend 20 yuan based on the progress of the trek and personal supply needs. Travel: The three-day and two-night itinerary is quite ample. If you prefer a 'special forces' style trip, you can arrive in Yinchuan after work on Friday, trek on Saturday and Sunday, and return on Sunday evening. You can choose to charter a car or carpool according to personal preference, contact the driver in advance for pick-up, it takes 3 hours from the airport to the starting point of the trek, 2.5 hours from Yinchuan station, and gas canisters and water can be delivered to the driver through food delivery, and the driver will bring them when picking you up. 【Important Matters】 1. Although desert trekking is not very difficult, walking on sandy roads is inconvenient, so be sure to wear mid-high top hiking shoes without mesh and wear gaiters. 2. The ultraviolet rays in the desert are very strong, so sun hats, sunglasses, magic scarves, and gloves should be worn throughout the journey, and lip balm and sunscreen are also essential. 3. Water is extremely important, ensure 2 liters of water per day, and if you don't want to carry too much, you can consume it at the campsite. 4. Prepare two power banks, download the route in advance, as sand dunes often move, try to walk on the easier sand beds, but don't stray too far. 5. Bring an extra pair of pants and a T-shirt, and before returning, you can spend 45 yuan to rent a room by the hour to take a bath, which feels great. In addition, there are some nice attractions around the Tengger Desert, such as Shapotou, where you can see the spectacular desert and Yellow River landscapes. In terms of food, you can't miss the hand-grabbed lamb, which is tender and juicy; there are also braised snacks, which are rich and delicious; and Yuxiang, which is fragrant. In summary, embark on the journey to the Tengger Desert with a joyful heart, and fully enjoy this unique world and the beauty of the moment!
