What sets your tour apart? Prepare for the ultimate high-altitude expedition. While most visitors view Meili from a distance, we lead you into the "Amphitheater of Giants"—the North Face. This journey is designed for seasoned adventurers seeking raw wilderness and profound isolation. What sets us apart is our commitment to a pure, off-grid experience. You will conquer the 5,200m Ciding Pass, the trek's highest point, offering a rare 360° panorama of the Nairi Dingka and Mangkuang Laka glaciers. At Pojun Camp (4,120m), you will experience a total digital detox; there is no signal here, just the sound of cracking ice and grazing wild yaks under the Milky Way. We prioritize safety and authenticity. Our professional English-speaking guides are experts in high-altitude logistics, ensuring a secure traverse of this UNESCO-listed landscape. With a strict"No Shopping"policy, we focus entirely on the ecological majesty of the mountains. Experience the North Face—where the silence is absolute.

Renowned as one of the world’s top classic hiking routes, the Tiger Leaping Gorge High Trail is a must-visit destination for trekking enthusiasts.

The scenery is nothing short of spectacular. Hike alongside the majestic Haba Snow Mountain, gaze across to the dramatic peaks of Jade Dragon Snow Mountain, and follow the roaring Jinsha River deep below. Along the way, you’ll pass through forests, cliffs, ancient trails, and waterfalls, offering constantly changing views. Tiger Leaping Gorge gained international fame through the explorations of Joseph Rock and remains a favorite among hikers from around the world. Today, it continues to be recognized as one of the highlights of southwest China, frequently featured in Western travel guides and geography publications.
