Hongshan Danxia Scenic Area
红山丹霞景区
A high-plateau Danxia landform scenic area in Yinduo Township, a National 4A-level site, often described as among the highest and most extensive Danxia landscapes in Tibetan areas.
Hongshan Scenic Area lies in Yinduo Township in western Xinlong County. Red sandstone and conglomerate, shaped by weathering and erosion, form peak clusters, cliffs, and crimson mountains, which contrast vividly with the blue sky, barley fields, and Tibetan villages. The Ganzi to Baiyu road passes nearby, so you can stop along the way to admire the view or enter the scenic area's trails for a closer look. It is about 1.5 to 2 hours' drive from Xinlong County town. The plateau sun is strong, so bring sun protection. Facilities within the scenic area vary, so check on site.
