Experience the natural beauty of Siguniangshan Hot Springs, a hidden gem in Sichuan's western mountains. This bicarbonatée thermal spring is nestled within the majestic Siguniangshan range, known as 'The Four Sisters' due to its four towering peaks. Soak in the warm waters and rejuvenate your senses amidst breathtaking scenery.

Insider tip — Siguniangshan Hot Springs are nestled at high altitude in the Qionglai Mountains of western Sichuan, at the foot of the Four Sisters Mountain — a group of peaks reaching over 6000 meters and a UNESCO World Heritage site. The bicarbonate waters emerge from glacial geology in one of China's most dramatic alpine settings, surrounded by rhododendron forests and Tibetan cultural landscapes. The springs are used as a recovery station by mountaineers attempting the Four Sisters and trekkers completing multiday routes through the Changping and Shuangqiao valleys. Visit in October for autumn foliage that transforms the surrounding valley into an explosion of red and gold against snow-capped peaks.
