About Daba Mountains · Huanganba Alpine Pasture
At roughly 2,200–2,500 metres, the landscape feels markedly different from central Chongqing, with broad grass slopes and woodland that changes colour in autumn. Snow can affect the long cool season. Treat the visit as a mountain outing centred on the ecological visitor area, with time to observe the grassland and forest edge rather than an assumed cross-country hiking circuit.
What to look for
- High alpine pasture: broad open grass slopes above the valley settlements.
- Pasture–woodland boundary: changing mountain vegetation and seasonal leaf colour.
