📍 [Altay Kanas Customized Car Rental Tour | With Driver · Customizable Itinerary · Attentive Service]
In May, Xinjiang is full of spring, with ice and snow beginning to melt in the Altay region. The birch forests by Kanas Lake quietly turn green, mountain streams surge, and everything revives. As one of the most representative natural scenic areas in northern Xinjiang, Kanas not only boasts stunning scenery with distinct seasons but also, due to its scattered transportation and long distances between attractions, is an ideal destination for customized car rental travel. In 2026, with the continuous optimization of tourism infrastructure, the Kanas scenic area remains stably open, with improved reception capacity, offering tourists a more flexible and comfortable deep experience.
🌲 Detailed Introduction to Routes and Destinations
The Kanas Scenic Area is located in the northern part of Burqin County, Altay Prefecture, Xinjiang, about 750 kilometers from Urumqi.
