Explore the ‘Jiangnan Beyond the Great Wall’ 🌿 – A Comprehensive Guide to the 2026 Summer Deep Tour of Qiaxi Forest Park in Yili
[Destination Highlights:Quartet of Snow-Capped Mountains, Forests, Grasslands, and Streams]
Located in the southeast of Gongliu County, Yili Kazakh Autonomous Prefecture, Xinjiang, lies a hidden gem hailed by China National Geographic as the ‘Most beautiful forest in Xinjiang’ – Qiaxi National Forest Park. With an average elevation of 1,500 meters and a total area of 5,560 hectares, it is renowned for its four-dimensional landscape system of ‘snow-capped mountains-forests-grasslands-streams’. The core area boasts a 95% coverage of primeval forests of Picea schrenkiana, with a 365-year-old ‘King of Spruces’ forming an alpine coniferous-broadleaf mixed forest belt alongside white birches and mountain poplars. Above 1,600 meters elevation, the alpine meadows are adorned with an 80% coverage of wildflowers in late May, with over 20 species such as Primula tibetica and Trollius chinensis in full bloom. The three-tiered terrain of the Qiaxi River creates numerous waterfalls, including the Shimen Waterfall with a 15-meter drop, where rainbows can be seen during the rainy season. In 2023, it was listed among the first batch of important habitats for high-quality terrestrial naturally growing animals, with 32 nationally protected species such as the ibex and golden eagle thriving here.
