Best Time to Visit JiuZhaiGou
Each season brings with it different scenery. Autumn is generally considered the most beautiful with its multitude of colors. Winters are very cold, but much less crowded and when snow covers the valley it turns into a winter wonderland. Of course, snowfall might also make travel to and from the valley difficult or even impossible. In spring, the flowers bloom and the rivers swell, meaning waterfalls are at their most impressive. Jiuzhaigou in the summer is greener than ever. July and August are the rainy seasons, but some of the most beautiful pictures of the valley are taken directly after a downpour.

When is the best time to visit Jiuzhaigou? In every season this place is breath-taking and wonderful…it only depends on you, even if you should take in consideration a couple of things: during the low season, usually from the second half of November to the second half of March, the large parts of the wooden trails are impassable and closed so it’s impossible to hike the trails. I highly suggest you go in April just like me, nice weather and good temperatures (they varies between 13C(55.4F) and 21C (69.8F)), all trails are open, and it’s not so crowded, the perfect conditions to live this place in the middle of nature. - JiuZhaiGou: high altitudes between 2000m~3100m,covered with Virgin forest.,the valley have 108 lake.,glory with fairy tale land,。prensent with V shape,made of main 3 valley:shuzheng valley、rize valley、zezhawa valley,totally 50 km length.
