Hi,

Is it too late to plan for this Oct 2026?

Delia Xu

Dear Kelvin,

This is Delia from Windhorse Tour. Thank you for your message!

It is still not too late to plan your trip for October 2026. However, please note that October is the peak season, especially for Jiuzhaigou’s autumn scenery. Hotels and guides are usually in high demand and may sell out early.

We recommend planning and confirming your travel dates as early as possible so we can secure the best arrangements for you.

Could you please share your approximate travel dates and number of travellers?

Looking forward to your reply!

Best regards,
Delia

Kristof

Dear,

We will be in Jiuzhaigou in the last week of october 2026. We are 4, including 2 children aged 9 and 10.
Can you give some more details about the horse trekking? Is horse riding experience required? Do we have to bring gear like boots, helmet etc?
Our children are difficult eaters… Can they choose some simple food like rice/bread and chicken for example?

Thank you,
Kristof

Delia Xu

Hello Kristof,

This is Delia from WindhorseTour! Thank you for your inquiry. Regarding horseback riding, prior experience is not required. Before the ride begins, we provide professional instruction for beginners, including safety guidelines and key riding tips. An English version of the itinerary guide will also be provided.

To better arrange the horseback riding for your child, may we ask for your child’s exact height? This will help us assess whether a guide-led (lead-rope) riding service is needed. As for equipment, we will provide professional riding gear free of charge, including safety stirrups, thickened saddles, and clean sleeping bags. However, we recommend that you bring personal protective equipment such as a helmet and riding boots.

Regarding meals, we generally provide lamb, pork, rice, noodles, and vegetables. If your child is a picky eater, we suggest bringing some portable snacks that he enjoys.

The detailed itinerary and quotation have been sent to your email. Please check it at your convenience. If you have any questions, feel free to contact us at any time!

Kind regards,
Delia

Peter Landy

Is it possible to do horse trekking in early March?

Sylvia Xie

Dear Peter,
I hope this message finds you well!
Thank you for your inquiry! This is Sylvia from WindhorseTour.

I’d like to inform you that horse trekking is not feasible in early March. It will be available starting from the end of April. During early March, the horses may still be weak, and late March and early April are typically when heavy snowfall occurs, which could impact trail conditions.

Please feel free to let me know if you have any other questions.
Best regards,
Sylvia
