    Highlights: Mount Siguniang, also known as “Skubla” in Tibetan, is a large mountain with four sharp peaks, and is the highest of the Qionglai Mountains. It is located in Aba Prefecture’s Xiaojin County near Rilong Town. The peaks of Mount Siguniang are covered with snow the whole year round. The mountain’s name means “the Four Sisters”, because the four peaks are reminiscent of four beautiful maidens shrouded in white veils. The scenic area consists of the four snow covered peaks and the three valleys: Shuangqiao Valley, Changping Valley and Haizi Valley. Tickets for Haizi Valley are sold separately. An excursion to Mount Siguniang for holiday is recommended to plan at least three days for your trip. (For a proper visit, each of the valleys needs at least one full day.) If your time is limited, we suggest you first go to Changping Valley and Haizi Valley, as you cannot see the four peaks from Shuangqiao Valley. Many outdoor lovers like to go hiking between the valleys and will camp out overnight.
