A 5 – day journey unlocking the soul of northwest Yunnan’s Tibetan cultural realm, centered on Shangri – La’s spiritual allure and Meili Snow Mountain’s divine presence. Traverse alpine pastures, ancient monasteries, and pilgrimage trails, blending outdoor adventure, cultural immersion, and soul – stirring natural wonders—from dawn – lit golden peaks to serene wetland reflections.
Midday drive to Dêla Pasture; enjoy a distinctive outdoor barbecue at a mountain viewing platform—melding scenery and flavour.
Afternoon niche hike beginning at Dêla Pasture. Traverse highland meadows and patches of primitive forest; possible encounters with grazing yaks and sheep; sense of purity and calm.
Drive back to Shangri-La town.
Morning visit to the largest Tibetan Buddhist monastery complex in Yunnan; absorb scale, murals, and devotional atmosphere.
Midday hosted meal in a local Tibetan home—sampling authentic “home flavours”.
Before reaching Deqin, stop at Qudeng Pavilion for a simple blessing-style ritual, echoing what locals may do prior to a mountain circumambulation—symbolically “obtaining the key” to greet Kawagebo.
Arrive at Feilai Temple (Feilai Si) area by late afternoon / evening; weather permitting, the alignment of Meili’s Thirteen Peaks unveils in dramatic sequence.
Pre-dawn departure to quietly await first light. As the sun strikes Kawagebo (main summit) and sequentially lights the Thirteen Peaks in gold, it creates a powerful, lasting visual memory (weather dependent).
A manageable 8 km hike facing Baima Snow Mountain area—experiencing physical movement connected to local devotion; gentle gradients suitable even for newer hikers.
En route back, pause at Napa Lake (highland wetland) for a distinctive nature-themed afternoon tea—an easing transition from exertion to relaxation.
Group dinner (guests may voluntarily write reflections on the journey, notes to fellow travellers, or feedback for brand “Mydetra”).
Free evening exploration of Dukezong Old Town, the “Moonlight City”; optionally visit Guishan Park to turn one of the world’s largest prayer wheels, extending blessings to family and friends.
You may choose to leave the group directly in Shangri-La OR travel with the main group back to Lijiang. Estimated arrival at Lijiang Sanyi Airport around 14:30—plan onward flights with sufficient buffer.
