Explore Kanas:2026 Winter Ice and Snow 6-Day Custom Vehicle Deep Tour: Unlock the Wonders of Hemu Snowfield and Rime Scenery
❄ ️【Itinerary Highlights:A Fairy-Tale World in the Icy Secret Realm】
Kanas and Hemu are the most iconic winter ice and snow tourism destinations in Xinjiang. In winter 2026, they will host a serene ice and snow extravaganza centered around four themes: ‘snowfields, rime, starry skies, and Tuwa culture.’ The itinerary covers core attractions such as Kanas Lake, Hemu Village, and the Three Bays (Fairy Bay, Moon Bay, and Wolong Bay), utilizing custom vehicles throughout for flexible scheduling, ideal for families, friends, or photography enthusiasts traveling together.
In winter, Kanas Lake is covered in ice and snow, its surface as smooth as a mirror, reflecting the snow-capped mountains and blue sky. The morning mists and rime at Fairy Bay create a picturesque scene, while the wooden houses in Hemu Village emit wisps of smoke, with the sound of horse hooves and ethnic folk songs echoing across the snowfield, forming a vivid winter painting of northern Xinjiang. Additionally, the itinerary includes interactive activities such as snow hiking, horse-drawn sleigh rides, and visits to Tuwa families, allowing visitors to deeply experience the local culture.
