Registration channels for the 2027 Lindū Hao special train departing from Harbin; online and offline ticket purchasing channels for the Lindū Hao special train.
The 2027 schedule for “Lindū Hao” has already been released: the winter ice and snow route departs from Harbin and links Yichun, Mohe, Snow Town, and Yabuli along the way; the summer grassland route operates in both directions between Harbin and Hailar. The question asked most often in the backend is—”Where exactly do you buy tickets for this train? Can it be booked online?” This article will explain the registration channels, schedule prices, and onboard and offboard activities all at once. After reading it, you will know whom to contact and how the process works.
🚂 I. First, get to know this train:It is not an ordinary train ticket.
According to public reports, at 9:38 on June 18, 2023, train Y523 “Lindū Hao” tourist special train departed from Harbin Railway Station for Yichun, the “Forest Capital.” This was the first high-quality experiential sightseeing tourist train operated in Heilongjiang Province. The train was jointly developed by Yichun Forest Industry Group and Harbin Railway Group, with Yichun Tourism Development Group leading operations. The carriages were renovated by CRRC Changchun Railway Vehicles Co., Ltd., and it took only about 100 days from project launch to the inaugural departure.
What do the carriages look like? The full train has 15 carriages, of which 8 are passenger carriages with a total of 30 high-end soft-sleeper compartments. The tourist capacity is 60 people, with a maximum passenger capacity of 90. The rest are functional carriages such as a jazz bar, Chinese and Western dining car, tea room and reading room, meeting room, specialty product exhibition hall, children’s playroom, library, and medical room, plus 1 power-generating car. The exterior is pure white with light coffee, medium coffee, and dark coffee colors, decorated with patterns of Korean pine, mountains, deer, and snowflakes; the interior is designed around the theme of “Forest of Light and Shadow.”
How to choose a room type?
🛏 ️ Prestige Luxury Suite:About 21㎡, only 2 on the whole train, double bed + single sofa bed, with a reception room, extra-large scenic window, and bathroom;
🛏 ️ Golden Diamond Luxury Standard Room:About 12㎡, 16 in total, two single beds + single sofa bed;
🛏 ️ Golden Diamond Luxury Double Room:About 12㎡, 12 in total, double bed + sofa bed at the foot of the bed, suitable for families.
All three room types have bathrooms and extra-large scenic windows. There is no hotel change and no luggage handling throughout the journey, which is why it is called a “mobile five-star hotel” and a “luxury cruise ship on rails.”
The onboard atmosphere is something many visitors never forget when they return: in the tea room carriage you can drink local Acanthopanax senticosus tea, slightly bitter with a sweet aftertaste; in the medical room there is a traditional Chinese medicine doctor on board for consultations; in the bar a band performs folk songs live; there are also intangible cultural heritage paper-cutting experiences, postcards printed with Yichun’s top ten attractions for stamping, and birch sap product tastings. A tourist from Shanghai chose a suite with two children and said, “As the train moves through, it feels like staying in a forest homestay that can ‘walk.'”

🌲 IV. Scenery outside the window and at the stops
The Yichun section is the “forest home ground” of the entire route. Located in the Lesser Khingan Mountains, it is cool in summer and rich in forest vegetation resources, and has long been known as the “Forest Capital of China.” Along the train route, resources such as Wuying National Forest Park, Tangwanghe Forest Sea Strange Stone Scenic Area, Shangganling Xishui Park, and Riyuexia National Forest Park are connected. In the winter itinerary, visitors go to Shangganling Xishui Deer Garden to experience winter fishing and ice entertainment, get close to reindeer, and also go to Dapingtai Ku’erbin to see rime—the most recognizable winter scene in the Lesser Khingan Mountains.
The Mohe section focuses on “finding the north.” Arctic Village, the northernmost post office, Zhou Arctic Square, Border Landscape No. 138, and Arctic Sandbar are the standard check-in sequence, while a Heilongjiang River cruise lets you take a look at the opposite bank from the river. Standing on this snowfield in winter, with a scarf wrapped so only your eyes are exposed, is the first “extreme cold experience” for many southern tourists.
The Snow Town and Yabuli section is the finale climax of the ice and snow route. Snow Town’s Xueyun Street, snowmobiles, and Ice and Snow Ten-Mile Gallery, together with Northeast farmhouse dishes and a dumpling banquet, switch the rhythm from the quiet of the forest to lively bustle. Some tourists say: “This way of traveling makes people completely relax; the eyes are looking at scenery, the body is enjoying service, and the soul is also returning to nature.”
The summer grassland route combines “forest and grassland” together. On the night of September 30, 2025, “Lindū Hao” operated toward Arxan for the first time, with the first stop Manzhouli, 6 days and 5 nights. Visitors can touch the spectacle of volcanic landforms blending with forest seas at Arxan Tianchi and Santa Gorge, ride horses on the grassland, and attend a Zhama banquet. Manzhouli, the Sightseeing Tower, grassland camps, off-road vehicle crossings of Hulunbuir, and large-scale equestrian live performances are all high-frequency words on this route.
❄ ️ V. A few things worth remembering before traveling
Large seasonal differences:The winter route (December to February of the following year) focuses on ice and snow, rime, and winter fishing, and warm equipment should be prepared for minus 20 to 30 degrees; the summer route (June to August) focuses on forest summer retreats and grasslands, and a jacket is still needed due to the temperature difference between morning and evening.
Scenic area opening and ice-snow projects are affected by weather:Whether projects such as rime viewing, winter fishing, snowmobiles, and grassland grass sliding are open depends on the temperature and snow conditions at the time. Please confirm the arrangements for your departure again before setting off.
Documents and name lists:Itineraries in border areas involve real-name ticket purchases and accommodation registration. When registering, you need to provide names and document numbers consistent with valid identification.
Physical pace:The train itself is a “mobile hotel,” but getting off for sightseeing still involves walking and time outdoors in low temperatures. Families with elderly people or children are advised to explain in advance so room types and seats can be arranged.
Luggage:No hotel changes and no luggage handling throughout the journey are advantages of this train, but on days getting off the train you still need a small carry-on bag with warm clothing and commonly used medicines.
📮 VI. Registration channels and ticket purchasing methods:How to proceed online and offline
“Lindū Hao” is a high-end tourist special train chartered as a whole train. Carriages are sold by compartment and by person, not like ordinary train tickets released separately by train number on 12306. According to public reports, it implements a service model of “one price including designated items within the itinerary,” and the operator organizes passenger sources together with travel agency channels. Therefore, the registration entry point for ordinary travelers is a travel agency, not a station ticket window.
Online channel:Through the travel agency’s online consultation channel, after confirming the schedule, room type, and number of people, submit valid identification information, sign an electronic travel contract, and pay a deposit. Before departure, you will receive a gathering notice and pre-departure instructions.
Offline channel:Contact the travel agency’s customer service in person or by phone, verify the itinerary and price, and complete payment after signing a formal travel contract.
Recommended process (follow it to avoid pitfalls):
1. First set the schedule: for winter, look at December to February; for summer, look at June to August. Schedules around Spring Festival usually fill up first;
2. Then set the room type: there are few suites, so families traveling are advised to ask early;
3. Submit the name list: names, document numbers, and children’s ages must be accurate;
4. Sign and pay: the schedule, room type, and price on the formal contract shall prevail;
5. Pre-departure preparation: prepare clothing according to the season and confirm the gathering time and place.
📞 Registration and consultation:Consult Manager Wang Fei of Xinjiang Pathfinder International Travel Agency at 18095969599; the same number is used for both phone and WeChat. For address-related matters, please consult customer service.
🧾 VII. Clarify before registration:What is included and what is not included
Usually included:Special train compartment accommodation and land hotel accommodation, meals within the itinerary, scenic area tickets and section transportation, onboard guide and train butler services, onboard medical care and basic support, and experience items listed in the itinerary.
Usually not included:Personal consumption and expenses, optional items outside the itinerary, (if incurred), additional costs caused by force majeure such as weather and traffic control, and additional insurance beyond personal travel accident insurance.
It should be noted that the included items may differ slightly by schedule, room type, and channel. Please check the contract annexes item by item before signing. Specific details are subject to actual consultation and signing.
