Qinggeli Mountain Forest Secret Realm:2026 Altay Summer 7-Day Cool Escape Comprehensive Guide
(Icon:🌲⛰️🚗）
【Itinerary Highlights:A Cool World Hidden in the Folds of the Altai Mountains】
Located in the eastern part of Qinghe County, Altay Region, Qinggeli Valley is a popular destination for summer escapes in Xinjiang in 2026. The average summer temperature here is recommended to be 18-22℃, with a forest coverage rate of 83%. It boasts unique attractions such as Sandao Haizi (Three Lakes), the Meteorite Museum, and Wolf Mountain. Compared to traditional scenic spots like Kanas and Hemu, Qinggeli offers a more tranquil setting, ideal for travelers seeking an in-depth experience.
According to recent data from the Xinjiang Cultural and Tourism Department in 2026, Qinggeli Valley has established a 23-kilometer ecological trail that connects primitive spruce forests, alpine meadows, and glacial relics. Local communities still maintain the tradition of transhumance grazing, creating an ecological tableau of herds of cattle and sheep wandering through flower-filled meadows in summer.
