4-Day Zhangjiajie Private Package Tour with Lunch: Zhangjiajie National Forest Park

An exceptional tour that I highly recommend!

This 4-day private Zhangjiajie tour was everything we hoped for. Day 2’s hike and views from Yuanjiajie were unforgettable. Day 3’s Grand Canyon and Glass Bridge were exhilarating. Tianmen Mountain on Day 4, with its cable car and high-altitude trestle, was a highlight. The private tour allowed us to enjoy these wonders at our own pace, and the included tickets made the logistics effortless.

FAQs about Zhangjiajie National Forest Park Tours

What is the best time of year to visit Zhangjiajie National Forest Park to avoid rain and crowds?

Visit Zhangjiajie National Forest Park between April and October for optimal weather and clear views. The rainy season typically runs from May to June, so aim for April or late September–early October to avoid heavy rainfall and large crowds. Early mornings offer fewer tourists and clearer air for photography.

How do I get from Zhangjiajie Hehua International Airport to the national forest park?

From Zhangjiajie Hehua International Airport, take a direct shuttle bus to Wulingyuan (park entrance) – it runs daily and takes about 40 minutes. Alternatively, a taxi costs 80–120 CNY and offers door-to-door service. Pre-arranged hotel transfers are also reliable for added convenience.

Is the Avatar Hallelujah Mountain accessible inside Zhangjiajie National Forest Park, and how do I reach it?

Yes, the mountain known as Avatar Hallelujah Mountain (formerly Southern Sky Column) is located within Zhangjiajie National Forest Park. Reach it via the Bailong Elevator – the world’s tallest outdoor glass lift – then follow the Yuanjiajie viewing trail. The site is well-marked and accessible with a standard park ticket.

Do I need a separate ticket for the Zhangjiajie Glass Bridge when visiting the national forest park?

No, the Zhangjiajie Grand Canyon Glass Bridge is located outside Zhangjiajie National Forest Park and requires a separate ticket. It’s in the nearby Grand Canyon scenic area, about 40 minutes by car from Wulingyuan entrance. Plan a full day for the bridge due to high visitor volume and security checks.
