[2025 Xinyuan Attraction] Travel Guide for Hegu Grassland (Updated Jul)

🚗48-Hour Four Visits to Nalati Experience Guide|||Nalati is mainly divided into two parts: 1. Sky Prairie (vast grassland + snow-capped mountains + forest + stream in one frame), quite popular. 2. Valley Prairie (including Panlong Ancient Road), vast grassland, Panlong Ancient Road is a one-way mountain road, a three-dimensional landscape of grassland + forest (recommended). Two suggested self-driving tour routes: 1️⃣ Enter the scenic area early in the morning. From May to July, you can basically enter the scenic area at 8 a.m. (if you can stay inside the scenic area, you might get in even earlier). After entering, head straight to the Sky Prairie. At this time, there are fewer nomadic families and Tianjietai people, so if you want to take photos, do it early. Around 9 a.m., tour groups usually start entering the scenic area, and parking spaces become tight during peak season. After visiting the Sky Prairie, go to the Valley Prairie and Panlong Ancient Road. It is strongly recommended to drive around Panlong Ancient Road. 2️⃣ Enter the scenic area in the afternoon, first visit the Valley Prairie and Panlong Ancient Road, which takes about two to three hours. After 7 p.m., go to the Sky Prairie, where there are relatively fewer tourists (but grass sliding ends at this time). If the weather is good, you can even wait inside for a stunning sunset. Although the official rule states that self-driving vehicles need to leave after 9 p.m., you just need to leave before dark (in summer, it usually gets dark after 10:30 p.m.). Recommended viewing spots: 📍Nomadic Families, a three-dimensional painting of snow mountains, forests, streams, and grasslands. The famous internet celebrity bridge is here, and queuing is common. But you can continue walking further inside, where there are many single-plank bridges. Personally, I think it’s more beautiful there and no need to queue. 📍Tianjietai, climb high to enjoy a panoramic view of the vast scenery surrounded by distant snow-capped mountains. 📍Panlong Ancient Road (west section), only accessible by self-driving. You can switch infinitely between forest and three-dimensional grassland. Once inside, just say wow.

Day 1 Check-in and rest We bought a self-driving ticket. Before 6 PM, the Sky Prairie is very crowded, and because of the crowd, the experience is not great. The grass has been trampled bare. I recommend going to the River Valley Prairie and Panlong Ancient Trail first. Personally, I think these are the most beautiful and essence spots in Nalati. Fewer people and beautiful, perfect for shooting flower seas and forests. After 8 PM, go to the Sky Prairie. At this time, there are fewer people, so you can take photos of the popular net bridge without waiting in line. The sunset at the empty Sky Prairie is truly stunning. Day 2 Sleep in naturally in the morning, then swim in the prairie scenic pool. At noon, we went to a herdsman’s home on the Sky Prairie to experience a yurt lunch. My daughter was so happy feeding horses and hugging lambs. After eating, we started horseback riding. Riding horses on the vast Nalati grassland, the wind carries the scent of freedom. We originally wanted to go grass skiing, but my daughter can’t play because she weighs under 30 kg. Then we went back to the River Valley Prairie. It’s so beautiful, we really love this place. For dinner, we returned to the Nalati Indigo Hotel buffet and watched the stars from the balcony. This kind of family trip arrangement is easy for mom and no hardship for the kids!!!

If you think grassland homestays only consist of yurts and cooking smoke, Yundu Light Luxury Scenic Homestay will overturn all your imaginations. This "futuristic dwelling" hidden 2 kilometers from Nalati Valley grassland redefines the comfort boundaries of grassland travel with hotel-level service and whole-house smart technology. Location and First Impressions: The Golden Distance Between Seclusion and Scenery A 10-minute drive from the bustling Nalati Scenic Area, turning past a birch forest, a gray-white minimalist architectural complex comes into view—neither the ruggedness of traditional homestays nor the rigidity of chain hotels. The grassland 2 kilometers away is close enough to hear the shepherds’ calls, yet cleverly located to avoid tourist crowds. The housekeeper explains the location philosophy: "Not missing the magical light and shadow of the grassland at dawn and dusk, while enjoying an undisturbed starry sky." Room Reveal: Voice-Controlled Everything, a Technological Poem in Dialogue with the Grassland The moment you open the door to the Yunyin Scenic Suite, AI housekeeper Xiaodu gently greets you: "Would you like me to open the curtains?" With a single "open," the floor-to-ceiling window slides open, and the valley grassland wrapped in the scent of fresh grass flows into the room. The whole-house smart system is truly surprising: Climate Barrier: Underfloor heating and fresh air system automatically sense humidity, quietly smoothing out the 15°C temperature difference between day and night on the grassland; Invisible Service: The bathroom mirror comes with adjustable lighting, especially friendly for makeup. Hotel-Style Service: Warmth Beyond Standardization Though a homestay, it offers the delicacy of a star-rated hotel: Insisting on one guest per change, ensuring guests’ peace of mind and hygiene by guaranteeing clean bedding; Providing butler-style service, ensuring the guest experience from check-in to check-out; Combining the advantages of homestays and hotels, bringing the meticulousness of hotels and the personalized service of homestays to travelers, so even when far from home, they can feel the warmth and comfort of home. The Perks of Being 2km from the Grassland: Freely Switching Between Wildness and Civilization At 6 a.m., ride a herder’s horse to the grassland, and in 10 minutes, enjoy a sea of wildflowers covered with dew all to yourself; after a tiring evening, call the smart housekeeper to activate "Herding Mode": the bathtub fills with 42°C warm water, and the speaker plays white noise mixed with the sound of sheep bells. This sense of freedom to detach and immerse at any time is a luxury that traditional grassland accommodations can hardly match.

Nalati Grassland truly exceeded expectations! It's incredibly beautiful!! Nalati Grassland Self-Driving Tour Guide Travel Route (Personal Experience in 2024) There are 3 routes within the Nalati scenic area. If you're driving, I highly recommend completing all 3 routes. Set aside a full day, ideally 6-7 hours! 1. Aerial Grassland (most crowded but a must-see, allow 4 hours): After entering through the west gate, navigate directly to Nomadic Home. Along the way, you'll pass winding mountain roads, grasslands, snow-capped mountains, and fir forests. I believe the Aerial Grassland route encompasses the characteristics of all three routes, offering a rich tapestry of landscapes. If time is limited, you can focus solely on this route. For horseback riding, I recommend the area near Nomadic Home, 80 yuan/hour. 2. River Valley Grassland (less crowded, 1-2 hours): This is a vast, flat grassland, but the scenery is relatively monotonous. After returning from Aerial Grassland, navigate directly to Yitigense. Passing through around 6-7 pm, you'll encounter large herds of cattle, sheep, and horses, a truly magnificent sight. 3. Panlong Valley Road (less crowded, 1-2 hours): The scenery is stunning, and you can watch the sunset! I suggest entering from Yitigense around 8 pm and taking the western section of Panlong Valley Road. The entire route is 10km, a one-way, narrow road winding through fir forests. The changing scenery of forests, hillsides, and grazing livestock is captivating. Near the exit, you'll find a yellow tree on a hillside, offering panoramic views, perfect photo opportunities, and an ideal sunset viewing spot. Highly recommended! Accommodation Recommendation: Nalati Wusun Fir Cloud Residence ✅ Scenic view from floor-to-ceiling windows ✅ Garden homestay ✅ Step out the door to grassland and mountain views ✅ Excellent location! Only 8 minutes' drive from the scenic area At the homestay, you can enjoy tea and flowers while taking in the beautiful natural scenery. It's so relaxing, and the photo opportunities are amazing. At night, you can see a sky full of stars from the courtyard. The host is warm and welcoming! They'll also enthusiastically recommend local, authentic restaurants that are both delicious and affordable. I sincerely recommend this to anyone planning a trip to Nalati!!

The Valley Prairie, vast and boundless, stretches out like a green canvas between heaven and earth. Dotted with cattle and sheep, with white clouds drifting by, the prairie is accompanied by the melodies of pastoral songs, immersing one in a distant and pure embrace of nature. Each season offers a different scenery: spring is adorned with blooming flowers, summer is lush and verdant, autumn is awash with golden waves, and winter is draped in silver. Meandering rivers, crystal clear, add a touch of vitality to the prairie. This place is not only a pasture for herders but also an ideal retreat from the hustle and bustle of city life, a return to nature. The Valley Prairie is like a poem written by nature, enchanting and mesmerizing.

May you have a place to settle down in your life, and also have the courage to chase your dreams. I thought I missed the summer in Nalati I didn't expect the autumn grassland to have a different charm Running in Nalati Grassland Passing through the Wusun ruins It seems to have entered the world of Zelda The autumn in Xinjiang is like a gentle dream Nalati Grassland is very large It is recommended to drive into the scenic area, and the scenery is everywhere Divided into aerial grassland and valley grassland Wusun ruins are in the valley grassland There is also a big tent next to it for sightseeing The grassland is full of golden flowers If the summer Nalati is a vigorous vitality Then the autumn Nalati is a deep attachment Everything will eventually pass away🍂 But before that, we will say goodbye seriously Wait for the next reunion to bloom✨

🎉The wisest thing about this trip is to decide to go clockwise, perfectly avoiding the heavy rain and snow in Kanas, all the way sunny🌞 Day 1: Anjihai Grand Canyon - Duku Highway - Stay at Guyue National Style B&B in Nalati Town ❣️ Between Dushanzi and Anjihai, Dushanzi is a developed scenic spot with better overall facilities and more entertainment facilities, while Anjihai is an undeveloped scenic spot. On the way to Duku, Dushanzi is more convenient , everyone is free to choose. The Duku Highway is only open 4 months a year, all the way through the four seasons, the snow-capped mountains are a bit high, after walking feel the highway is not so stunning, but the snow-capped mountains are very beautiful, remember to wear an old cotton-padded jacket, really cold! Day 2: Nalati - live in Yining all season 🏆Nalati can choose a self-drive tour oh, it feels very good, tickets 200r/person. There are three points in Nalati and we visited two (Aerial Grassland and River Valley Grassland). The aerial grassland is the most crowded at the core point, there are three stations in this place, the first station is at the observation deck to look at the grassland, the second station is walking to the grassland (here there is horseback riding a kind of 80r / h, a kind of 50r / lap . ✨ Stay in Yining all season at night, after checking in to six-star street strolled around, the night is more and more lively, check-in Gurandam ice cream (shop decoration is very characteristic, buy ice cream ingredients casually add, at least ten Plant small ingredients, many celebrities have been), Ga Alley powder soup (want to eat lamb, lamb offal results are gone, ordered beef powder soup and beef bones are quite good oh), after eating then blindly walk for a while Day 3: Sailimu Lake - Live in Kuitun Mr. Sa did not deceive me, the last tear of the Atlantic Ocean was too worth it to take the picture of life. Driving admission ticket price 143r, to add a basic attraction 60 or more half price, 65 free ticket, but the ticket is not discounted oh. The lake race is 90km, worth a good look, the eyes will have BB, the lake and snow-capped mountains are too beautiful, the photos can not record the beautiful, everything is not as good as seeing with your own eyes. We live in Kuitun is not very good so we will not introduce it ‍Day 4: Devil’s City—live in Burzin Star Course To depart from Ili to Altay, on the way will pass through the devil city, Yadan landscape, the feeling is to avoid the day on the road, plus Karamay is a must-pass, there is a lot of oil extraction on the road. There is a small train inside Devil's City, with a total of five stops. It is recommended to get off on 2.3.4. 100 meters oil field + entertainment facilities, 2 camel riding, 3 seven swords down Tianshan, 4 crouching tiger hidden dragon, 5, dinosaur park 💖 Burzin ate hot pot, hot beef is not too good to eat, after eating the celebrity bridge, around 9:30 at night will be closed and lights up, people can walk up, the side of the celebrity bridge more photos oh, Remember to buy a cup of Calves Kern and choose the signature knock good drink 🚀
