Itinerary

Day 1 · Arrival in Zhangjiejie & Pickup

Zhangjiajie

one hour

Welcome to Zhangjiajie, a breathtaking world of towering peaks and unforgettable scenery! Your private tour guide and driver will greet you at the airport or railway station with your name sign and transfer you to the hotel booked by your own. For easy access to the park, we recommend staying in Wulingyuan, close to the East Gate.

Day 2 · Full Day in Zhangjiajie National Forest Park

BaiLong Elevator

2 hours Admission not included

Today, let’s delve into the Zhangjiajie National Forest Park. In the morning, we will explore the most famous Yuanjiajie Scenic Area.

After entering the scenic area, to save you time and effort, we have generously offered you the chance to ride the Bailong Elevator, the world’s highest outdoor sightseeing lift built on a cliff, with a vertical height difference of 335 meters (1,100 feet), cutting what used to be a 4 or 5 hours’ drive to the mountaintop to only 88 seconds.
Stop 2

4 hours Admission not included

We will explore the most famous Yuanjiajie Scenic Area. Prepare to be amazed by the incredible shape of the Hallelujah Mountain, which is so rare that it was chosen as the model for Floating Mountains of Pandora in the US sci-fi film Avatar.

After that, take the sightseeing shuttle bus to Yangjiajie Scenic Area. Here, you will get a glimpse of the imposing peak wall landscape, the Natural Great Wall.
Tianzi Mountain

Step onto the world's highest Glass Bridge, suspended dramatically between two mountain cliffs. Famous for holding multiple world records, this breathtaking walkway promises an unforgettable thrill.
Golden Whip Brook

4 hours Admission not included

The afternoon brings a change of pace. Your guide will lead you back into Zhangjiajie National Forest Park for a peaceful hike along the Golden Whip Stream. Here, you'll walk through untouched forest, with the soft murmur of the brook at your feet and towering peaks soaring high above.
