A winter trip to Inner Mongolia is a chance to encounter stunning scenery.

What to do in Hohhot in winter? When it comes to Hohhot, Inner Mongolia, the first thing that comes to mind is the vast grasslands. It seems that there is nothing to do in winter. Indeed, many scenic spots are closed during this season. What to do? Actually, it's time to try something different! Off-road vehicle routes offer a chance to see many natural wonders, such as snowy volcanoes, the Red Mountain, and the desert. Off-road vehicles can take you through forests and grasslands, skiing, and snowmobiling. These activities are perfect for this winter. There are very few people during this season, so you can have a great experience without going to crowded places like Harbin. Recommended attractions: Desert Many scenic spots are closed, but the Kubuqi Desert and Resonant Sand Gorge are still open in November. You don't have to go to a scenic spot to enjoy the desert. Local tours offer off-road vehicle rides through the desert. This tour includes a four-wheel-drive off-road vehicle that takes you to the wild desert of Longtouguai, deep into the desert, where you can enjoy unlimited sandboarding. Grassland The grass in Huitengxile Grassland has turned yellow, and the scenic spot is closed. At this time, local tours can take you through the Huiteng Forest Grassland, a relatively niche area with no entrance fee. It features birch and pine forests, offering a more primitive landscape. Wulanhada Volcano Wulanhada Volcano is free all year round. The volcano is black, and its appearance is not affected by the seasons. Red Mountain This is not a scenic spot, but a red Danxia landform. The red mountain is perfect for photography, with no filter needed. The road is under construction, so low-chassis cars are not suitable. You need a high-chassis off-road vehicle. This season is perfect for off-road vehicle tours. You can enjoy many natural landscapes without entrance fees. ❤❤ Food Recommendations 🍛 Pot tea milk tea (salty or sweet), ice-cooked lamb (highly recommended!!), roasted lamb chops, milk skin, stuffed tripe, jiong noodles, handmade old yogurt, freshly roasted beef jerky, sand onion scrambled eggs, lamb skewers, xiguo soup, lamb shumai, yurt cake, etc. ❤❤ Tips Inner Mongolia is vast and sparsely populated. If you drive or travel independently, it can be difficult to solve any problems that arise. It is recommended to join a reliable local tour group. This way, accommodation, transportation, and tickets are all planned for you. The cost per person is not expensive, and compared to independent travel, it is truly more convenient and cost-effective!
