Customized car rental for corporate small groups on the Kanas Loop:A team bonding journey amidst the scenery of Altay✨
🌄 Detailed introduction to the route or destination
The Kanas Loop is a classic travel route in northern Xinjiang, connecting natural and cultural attractions such as Kanas Lake, Hemu Village, Colorful Beach (Wucaitan), and Keketuohai. Set against the Altai Mountains, the scenery varies with the seasons—lush green meadows in summer and vibrant autumn foliage—making it an ideal choice for corporate teams to relax and strengthen cohesion.
Kanas Lake:A national 5A scenic area where the lake water shifts between blue-green, emerald, and even milky white tones depending on the season and light. Key attractions include Guanyu Terrace (requiring a climb of 1,068 steps), the Three Bays (Xian Bay, Moon Bay, and Wolong Bay) with a morning mist hiking section, and lakeside boardwalks. In 2026, the scenic area is open year-round, with timed reservation entry from 8:00 to 20:00 daily. It is recommended to book 1 to 3 days in advance through the “Kanas Smart Tourism” platform. During peak season (June 1 to October 15), tickets are 160 yuan/person, and the shuttle bus ticket is 70 yuan/person (one entry).
Hemu Village: Located on the south side of Kanas Lake, this is a traditional mountain village inhabited by multiple ethnic groups, preserving a large number of original wooden house clusters. In the early morning, thin mist rises over the river against a snowy mountain backdrop, creating a visually stunning scene. In 2026, tickets are 75 yuan/person, with opening hours from 8:30 to 20:00. Visitors must transfer to eco-friendly shuttle buses to enter the village. Accommodation mainly consists of wooden cabins with underfloor heating, but nighttime temperatures drop after September, so warm clothing is needed.
Colorful Beach (Wucaitan): Located about 24 km northwest of Burqin County, this is a typical Yadan landform. The Irtysh River flows through it, creating a unique “one river separating two banks” landscape. The colorful hills on the north bank display transitional shades of red, yellow, purple, white, and green due to mineral content. The best viewing time is 1.5 hours before sunset. In 2026, summer opening hours are 9:00 to 20:30, with tickets at 45 yuan/person.
Keketuohai National Geopark:A UNESCO Global Geopark featuring the Irtysh Grand Canyon and No. 3 Mine Pit, suitable for geological education and light hiking. In 2026, it is open daily from 9:00 to 19:00, with tickets including the shuttle bus, operating normally.
