Get in

By bus

Public transport buses depart from Kangding early in the morning, Buses also leave Ganzi early in the morning and cost 55Y. Booking your ticket the night before isn't strictly required but is advisable. Private transport is available from any of the dozen touts in the center of Ganzi, Kangding; their network is ad-hoc but seems to cover most routes.

By car

if using private transport your best bet is traveling to Daofu early in the morning when more people can share a ride, haggling mandatory for any sensible kind of price. Having 10 people jammed into a car, swapping cars en-route and picking up extra passengers from the side of the road is common; and luggage space can be limited.

See

Do
