Detailed Route Introduction
In 2026, many scenic spots in Xinjiang have completed supporting service upgrades. According to public scenic spot announcements, all core attractions will be open normally during the summer operation period, and the tour experience has been improved. This special train route covers representative attractions in Eastern, Northern, and Southern Xinjiang, from the Yardang landforms of Hami to the lake meadows of the Pamir Plateau, from alpine lakes to aerial grasslands, and then to ancient cities with profound cultural heritage, allowing you to experience different styles of natural scenery and cultural scenes in one go.
Currently, the management regulations of various scenic spots in Xinjiang are also gradually improving. For example, when visiting the Great Sea Road Devil City, local authorities have issued clear regulations prohibiting any unit or individual from entering undeveloped areas for hiking, exploration, crossing, camping, and other activities. Following the unified arrangements of the special train to visit can both enjoy the unique Yardang landscape and ensure travel safety. In summer, the Kanas Scenic Area has lush vegetation and distinctive lake and mountain scenery. As long as you follow the scenic area’s prompts and do not cross warning fences to enter icy or waterside areas, you can visit with peace of mind. The supporting facilities around Sayram Lake are also gradually improving. In summer, you can enjoy the blue lake scenery along the shore and taste local specialties like high white salmon and big plate chicken. The itinerary covering the essence section of the Duku Highway allows tourists to experience the “four seasons in one day” road scenery. In 2026, the summer traffic period of the Duku Highway will operate stably, and traveling with experienced local drivers can also enhance the smoothness of the trip.
Additionally, tourists planning to travel should be reminded that the temperature difference between day and night in Xinjiang is large. Even in summer, you should prepare warm clothing such as windbreakers or light down jackets. Sun protection items like sunglasses, sunscreen, and sun hats should also be fully prepared. Valid documents should be carried with you for verification at various stops. If you have underlying medical conditions, it is recommended to prepare common medications in advance and adjust your activity pace appropriately during the long journey.
