Notes:
1.The food and merchandises in Yubeng are transported from outside, as vehicles cannot get to Yubeng so things are expensive there. Travellers are advised to take food themselves such as biscuits, bread, milk, yoghurt, mineral water and fruit.
2. Yubeng has few hotels; Xueyuzangjiale Hotel is one of the local best hotels, Yubeng is short of water, so maybe there is no water for shower.
3. The car can only get to Xidang Village and travellers have to walk to Yubeng Village to get to the hotel. Big luggage can be left in the car, and travellers can get there with only backpacks.
4. This is a popular hiking route, however the hiking will take long time, and conditions are rather tough there.
5. The price does not include horse-driving fee, it is paid by travellers on the spot RMB350/horse/ day. There are often horse available in villages along the way offered by local farmers.
