[2025 Mianning Attraction] Travel Guide for Eerzeer Scenic Area (Updated Jan)

🌲Scenery: Magical forest 📍Location: Eerze'e, Xide County, Xichang 🚗Transportation: Self-driving or high-speed rail + taxi ⛰️Altitude: About 3,600 meters 🎫Tickets: Free 🅿️Parking: Free ✅[Travel Guide]: 1⃣️This is actually a very famous hiking route in the outdoor circle in the early years, from the back mountain of Mianning Lingshan Temple to Eerze'e, Xide County. It takes about 3 days to cross the Xiaoxiangling Mountains in Liangshan Prefecture, and you need to camp outdoors at night. The scenery along the way is very unique. The primeval forest and plateau lakes are embedded in it, but because of the high altitude, the climate is changeable, and the mountains are often shrouded in clouds and mist, and heavy rain often comes. 2⃣️There are two magical forests, and most netizens go to the one that is relatively easy to reach behind Lingshan Temple. This time we went to another more primitive and undisturbed magical forest in Xide County. 3⃣️Although the altitude of this magical forest is about 3,600 meters, due to the lush vegetation, there is almost no feeling of altitude sickness and hypoxia. 4⃣️Self-driving cars cannot drive near the forest, and can only stop by the roadside near Eerze'e Village and walk to the magical forest, a total of about 16 kilometers; about 10 kilometers of paved roads and about 6 kilometers of unpaved roads. If you only visit the magical forest, it is no problem to go back and forth on the same day. 5⃣️The most beautiful season of the magical forest is from the end of June to mid-July every year, when the rhododendrons on the top of the mountain are in full bloom; the best time to take pictures is after the rain, when the forest is filled with smoke, as if countless elves will fly out in the next second 🧚‍♀️. 6⃣️The good ecological environment that has grown naturally for thousands of years can breed this magical forest like a fairy tale world. It is located in the sparsely populated mountains, with fresh and lush moss, and the ecosystem is relatively fragile. Please be sure to protect the environment, do not destroy or harm, and do not leave any garbage!
