In-depth Group Horse Riding Experience on Nalati Grassland:Unlock the Poetic Journey of the Sky Grassland
I. Destination Overview: The Four Seasons of Nalati Grassland
Nalati Grassland, located in Xinyuan County, Yili Kazak Autonomous Prefecture, Xinjiang, is one of the world’s four major alpine meadow grasslands. With an average altitude of 2,200 meters, it is known as the “Sky Grassland” due to its unique subalpine meadow landscape. Surrounded by mountains on three sides and traversed by the Kunges River, it features a layered three-dimensional landscape of snow-capped peaks, spruce forests, meadows, and streams. In the summer of 2026, the grassland enters its prime viewing period, with wildflowers covering the fields, herds of cattle and sheep, and yurts of local people dotting the landscape, creating a poetic scene of “cattle and sheep appearing when the wind blows the grass low.”
Highlights of Core Areas:
Sky Grassland:Climb to the Tianjie Terrace for a breathtaking view of snow-capped peaks and grasslands in the same frame. The nomadic area offers horse riding and traditional costume experiences.
River Valley Grassland:Stroll along the Kunges River, where forests and streams intertwine, ideal for family hiking and light horse riding.
Panlong Valley Road:An ecological sightseeing route deep in the dense forest, where you can take a shuttle bus through spruce forests and canyons, experiencing the tranquility of “traveling through the scenery in a vehicle.”
Climate and Gear Tips:
The average temperature in June ranges from 15°C to 25°C, with significant temperature differences between day and night. Adopt the “onion layering” dressing method (quick-dry shirt + fleece + windproof jacket). With strong UV rays, it is recommended to bring SPF50+ sunscreen, sunglasses, a wide-brimmed hat, and high-top waterproof hiking shoes to cope with morning dew and post-rain grasslands.
