苍山
Cangshan Mountain
Cangshan Mountain forms the steep western barrier of the Dali Dam area. Nineteen peaks, valleys and vegetation change vertically to form a complete mountain system. Different ropeways lead to different altitudes and not all are connected. The Yudai Yunyou Road unfolds horizontally along the central contour line. First of all, it is a high-altitude mountain environment. It is not just a cableway for viewing. The weather changes much faster than on the Erhai coast.

Opening hours
Confirmed opening hours are not available on this page. Check opening and last-entry times with the venue before setting out.
Getting there
It is necessary to determine the specific cableway or trail before setting off, because the location of each station is different. Official ticketing channels should be used and time allowed for connection and weather suspensions.
Practical notes
On the day, you should confirm the altitude, wind, rain and closure notices, carry layered clothing, drinking water and non-slip shoes, only take open routes, and do not enter exposed mountain roads too late in the afternoon.
