New ways to play in the ice and snow fairy tale:A full analysis of the in-depth Northern Xinjiang ice and snow customized vehicle tour departing from Urumqi❄️
(Starting with an icon✨) When most parts of the country enter late autumn, Northern Xinjiang has quietly put on its silver attire—the blue ice surface of Kanas Lake reflects the snow mountains, the wooden houses of Hemu Village are wrapped in snow into a fairy-tale world, and the ice bubble wonder of Sayram Lake sparkles like diamonds in the sunlight. In the winter of 2026, Xinjiang Pathfinder International Travel Agency launches the “Ice and Snow Secret Realm” customized vehicle service, with flexible choices of 7-55 seat models, covering the three core scenic areas from Urumqi to Kanas, Hemu, and Sayram Lake, taking you to unlock the Northern Xinjiang ice and snow feast.
1. Route highlights: deep connection of three major ice and snow IPs
[Kanas Lake blue ice wonder]
In winter, the ice layer on Kanas Lake reaches 1.5 meters thick, and the ice surface presents a deep blue, forming the “blue ice” wonder under sunlight. The scenic area limits traffic to 300 vehicles of 7 seats or fewer per day. Customized vehicle service can avoid regular tour groups and let you exclusively enjoy the rime and ice waterfall landscapes of the Three Bays (Fairy Bay, Moon Bay, Wolong Bay). 2026 winter ticket policy: Kanas + Hemu combo ticket 100 yuan/person (original price 280 yuan), shuttle bus 120 yuan/person (including one entry).
[Hemu Village snowfield wooden houses]
Hemu Village, rated by “Chinese National Geography” as “China’s most beautiful village,” offers unique experiences in winter with snow mushrooms in the morning mist, horse-drawn sleds through birch forests, and traditional Tuvan khoomei performances. 2026 winter accommodation upgrade: characteristic wooden houses in the scenic area include bathrooms and floor heating, reference price 600-1000 yuan/night.
[Sayram Lake ice bubble secret realm]
In winter, a large number of bubbles are sealed under the ice surface of Sayram Lake, forming the “ice bubble” wonder. Spots such as Dianjiangtai and Songshutou are excellent places for photography. 2026 winter benefit policy: tickets half price at 35 yuan/person, about 90 kilometers of self-driving around the lake, where you can check in at the Guozigou Bridge and snow mountain reflections.
