Mount Siguniang (Four Girls Mountain)

If you're into photography, this place is heaven. I spent two days shooting the reflections in the Four Sisters Lake and got some incredible shots at golden hour. The hiking trails are relatively easy for the lower elevations, and the fresh mountain air is unbeatable. Five stars all the way.

Climbing the Dafeng (Big Peak) was the most thrilling experience of my life. The sunrise from the summit is pure magic. Equipment rental in Rilong town was affordable, and our guide spoke decent English. Just be prepared for altitude—bring Diamox if you're not acclimated.

Honestly a bit let down. The weather was foggy so we couldn't see the peaks at all, and the ticket price felt steep for what we experienced. The tea house at the base served lukewarm noodles and the staff seemed annoyed by tourists. Maybe I'll try again in a clearer season.

Stunning scenery but brutally crowded during Golden Week. We waited over an hour just for the shuttle bus. The alpine lakes and wildflowers were gorgeous once we got past the bottlenecks, but the management really needs to cap daily visitors. Still worth it if you go on a weekday.

The views at Mount Siguniang are absolutely breathtaking—each of the four peaks has its own character. We did the Changping Valley trek and the autumn colors were unreal. The trail is well-maintained, and the local guides are super helpful. Definitely a bucket-list destination for nature lovers!

This place is an absolute gem! Did a multi-day camping trek around the Changping Valley and the stars at night were unreal. The staff at the entrance were helpful with gear storage. Make sure to acclimatize before hiking higher — I got a mild headache at 4000m but the scenery more than made up for it. Will definitely come back for the other valleys.

A solid experience overall. The view of the four sisters (Siguniang) from the main viewing platform is stunning when the clouds part. Our guide was friendly and pointed out marmots along the trail. Only gave it 4 stars because the public restrooms near the parking lot were really dirty and the signage could be better in English. Still, a memorable trip.

Honestly, I was a bit let down. The weather turned cloudy and we barely saw the peaks after 10am. Also, the ticket price is steep considering the shuttle bus ride is bumpy and uncomfortable, and food options at the scenic area are overpriced instant noodles. If you go, check the forecast and bring your own snacks.

We visited during autumn and the golden larch forest combined with the snowy peaks was just magical. The cable car is a bit pricey but saves hours of walking. Brought my parents (both in their 60s) and they managed the easy paths near the entrance just fine. The fresh mountain air and quiet atmosphere made it a perfect day trip from Chengdu.

The scenery is absolutely breathtaking — those four peaks rising against the clear blue sky look like something out of a painting. Did the full-day trek to the base camp and every step was worth it. The trails are well-maintained and the local guides are super knowledgeable. Highly recommend for any serious hiker or nature lover!

Honestly a bit let down. Maybe I came on a bad day—low clouds completely hid the peaks all morning. The ticket was steep (150 RMB) and the shuttle line took over an hour. The trails themselves were nice but nothing mind-blowing compared to other spots in Sichuan. If you're unlucky with weather, it's really not worth the trip from Chengdu.

A solid experience overall. The mountains are gorgeous and the air is so fresh. We did the Haizi Valley loop, which offered beautiful meadows and wildflowers. However, the public restrooms along the way were poorly maintained, and the shuttle buses felt overpriced at 70 RMB per person. Still, the views made up for it. I’d recommend going on a weekday to avoid the crowds.

Did the Shuangqiao Valley route and it was stunning. The boardwalks make it accessible even if you're not a hardcore hiker, but the scenery is world-class. Only downside: some sections were quite crowded in the afternoon. Still, the rangers were friendly and the entrance fee felt reasonable for what you get. Definitely coming back for the longer trails.

Camped overnight at the base camp with a group of friends. Woke up at 4 AM to hike up for sunrise—totally worth it! The stars were unreal, and the sunrise over the peaks gave me chills. Facilities were clean, and the staff spoke decent English. Already planning my next trip back!

Absolutely breathtaking! Did the Changping Valley trek and felt like I was walking through a postcard. The four peaks were crystal clear in the morning light, and we even spotted a red panda near the trailhead. Local guides were super helpful. This place is a must for any nature enthusiast—can't recommend it enough!

Honest review: the mountains are gorgeous, but our visit was dampened by bad weather. We arrived in June and got three straight days of rain and fog—couldn't see a single peak. The wooden boardwalks are slippery when wet, and the tea houses along the trail were overpriced for instant noodles. I'm sure it's amazing in clear weather, but for what we paid (entrance + bus + lodging), I expected better value. Disappointing.

As a solo hiker I found the place incredibly safe and welcoming. Met a group of fellow travelers at the hostel and we did the two-day climb to Dafeng (Big Peak). The sunrise from the summit was an emotional experience—I actually cried. The mountain is pure and majestic. Equipment rental was cheap and the staff at the base were helpful. Can't recommend enough!

We did the Changping Valley trek with our dog and it was pure magic! The trails are well-marked and the views of the Four Sisters from the pasture are postcard-perfect. Our local guide, Mr. Yang, was super friendly and even pointed out a family of blue sheep. Only gave 4 stars because the public toilets are… well, you know. Bring your own tissue!

Beautiful scenery, but I left with mixed feelings. The cable car to the viewing platform was convenient, but it felt overly commercialized—loud music and souvenir stalls everywhere. The actual hike on the main trail was nice, though we had to dodge horse dung the whole way. Entry fee felt steep for what you get. It's pretty, but I expected more wilderness.

Absolutely breathtaking! The hike up to the base camp was challenging but so worth it. The four peaks look like giant fairy maidens in the morning mist. We went in late October and caught the golden larches—color explosion! Only downside is the altitude; make sure to acclimate. But seriously, one of the most stunning mountainscapes I've ever seen. 10/10 would go again.

I chose the horse-trek option to the second base camp, and our local guide (a Tibetan guy named Dorjee) was fantastic—very patient and knowledgeable about the flora and history. The ride was bumpy and a bit scary on the narrow cliff trails, but the views of the valley from above were incredible. Only downside: the weather turned foggy around noon, so we couldn’t see the summits clearly. Still had a great time, and the hot yak butter tea at the camp was a lifesaver.

Woke up at 4am to catch sunrise at the Cat’s Nose Ridge viewpoint—absolutely worth the early alarm. Watching the first rays hit the granite face of Yaomei Peak while the mist rolled over the valley below was pure magic. The reflection in the still lake nearby gave me chills. Also loved the little prayer flags fluttering everywhere, adding a spiritual touch. If you love real, untouched nature, this is paradise. Just be prepared for cold mornings even in summer.

Honestly, I was a bit disappointed. The entrance fee is 150 RMB, which is pretty high for a national park, and then you have to pay extra for the shuttle bus. The main viewing platform was completely packed with tourists even on a weekday—couldn’t get a decent photo without someone’s elbow in it. The mountain itself is nice but nothing mind-blowing compared to other spots in Sichuan. Maybe if I had hiked further it would’ve been better, but the crowds killed the vibe for me.

Stunning scenery, no doubt about it. The four peaks are majestic, especially in the early morning light. However, I wasn’t prepared for how intense the altitude sickness would hit me—could barely walk without gasping. Had to buy a small oxygen canister at the entrance for 50 RMB, which felt a bit steep. Wish there were more rest stops with benches along the main path. Still, if you’re in good shape, it’s a worthy bucket-list spot.

This was hands down the most beautiful trek I’ve ever done. The trail to the first base camp is tough—definitely felt the altitude around 4,000 meters—but the views of the snow-capped peaks and the alpine lakes are absolutely unreal. Had to stop every few steps just to catch my breath and snap photos. Bring plenty of water and snacks, and start early to avoid afternoon clouds. Would do it again in a heartbeat!

Stunning in every direction. I went solo and met lovely local guides who shared stories about the four sisters legend. The sunrise over the peaks made me emotional. This place has soul. One of the best experiences in Sichuan—hands down a 5-star memory.

We booked a guided tour which was fine, but the entrance fee felt a bit steep for what you get—basic facilities and long shuttle bus lines. The views are nice but I’ve seen similar in cheaper national parks. Worth a visit once, not a repeat destination.

Went in mid-autumn and the golden larch forest mixed with snow on the peaks was a photographer’s dream. The air is so crisp. Only downside? The altitude kicked my butt. Bring enough water and pace yourself. Will definitely return for a longer trek.

Beautiful scenery, no doubt, but the trails were way more crowded than I expected—even on a weekday. Had to queue for photo spots at the main viewpoint. Still a solid experience, just lower your expectations for solitude.

Absolutely breathtaking! The hike to the base camp was challenging but so worth it. The four peaks standing like silent guardians against the clear blue sky gave me chills. Saw a marmot sunbathing on a rock! If you love raw nature, this is heaven on earth.
