Tickets and booking

Glacier Park is reached by cableway — the data pack states that riding the Glacier Park cableway is required to reach the park, with no alternative route listed. The pack prices the cableway plus round-trip eco-shuttle at 140 RMB and notes this is included in the Yulong Snow Mountain scenic area entrance ticket, so no separate purchase is needed. It carries no reservation, quota, or availability data, so the practical default is to confirm current access and ticketing arrangements by phone at 0888-5596114. All figures are for reference only and are governed by what the scenic area discloses on the day.

Entrance and routes

The park sits inside the Yulong Snow Mountain Scenic Area, addressed in Yulong Naxi Autonomous County, Lijiang, Yunnan Province. Two bundled components cover the journey within the scenic area: a round-trip eco-shuttle and the Glacier Park cableway, priced together at 140 RMB and included in the scenic area entrance ticket. The cableway is the mandatory leg — the pack states the park cannot be reached without it. Opening hours run 07:00-17:00, Monday through Sunday, all year (1 January to 31 December), which frames any entry plan. Concession policies apply to the main scenic-area ticket only.

Photo spots

The data pack names no viewpoints, platforms, or photography rules, so a shot list has to be built on site. What it does support: this is a glacier park on Yulong Snow Mountain, so the glacier scenery the name refers to is the core subject, approached by cableway. The 07:00-17:00 daily opening window bounds the shooting day year-round. For current conditions and cableway status before committing a photography plan, call 0888-5596114.

Timing and crowds

The pack holds no crowd or visitor-volume data, so no evidence-based quiet period can be recommended. The fixed constraints: the site opens 07:00-17:00 every day of the year, and the suggested time on site is 1-3 hours. To fit the full window before the 17:00 close, enter by early-to-mid afternoon; a 07:00 start maximizes the time available. Because the cableway is the required way up, entry timing is effectively cableway timing — the pack does not quantify queues or capacity, so confirm by phone at 0888-5596114 if the schedule is tight.

Walking and effort

No trail distances, elevation figures, or difficulty ratings appear in the pack, so effort cannot be scored from it. What it does establish: the ascent is made by cableway — reaching the park requires it — so the climb itself is mechanized rather than hiked, and the on-site visit is budgeted at 1-3 hours. For anything beyond that, the pack is silent; 0888-5596114 is the listed line for confirmation.

Getting there

Within the scenic area, the pack covers one transit item: the round-trip eco-shuttle bundled with the cableway in the 140 RMB package, with the cableway as the required final leg to the park. The address places the park inside the Yulong Snow Mountain Scenic Area in Yulong Naxi Autonomous County, Lijiang, but the pack lists no bus routes, fares, or journey times from Lijiang city — plan that leg from another source or confirm via 0888-5596114.

Cost breakdown

One figure is attributable to the park: 140 RMB for the Glacier Park cableway plus round-trip eco-shuttle. Per the pack, that package is included in the Yulong Snow Mountain scenic area entrance ticket, so no separate purchase is needed; the standalone price of the scenic area entrance ticket itself is not in the pack. Concession policies cover the main scenic-area ticket only. All pricing is stated for reference and subject to same-day disclosure by the scenic area; 0888-5596114 is the listed confirmation line.
