From northern Xinjiang to time in the highlands. See how the days fit together, then choose what suits you.
Cross the desert road into Altai villages and on to Sayram Lake: a first encounter with the scale of northern Xinjiang.
Two ski areas, Jiangjunshan and Jikepulin, with Hemu, Kanas and time after the last run.
From Sayram Lake towards Chaxi and Nalati, with walking at the centre of the valley journey.
Cross the S21 desert corridor into the Altai, then finish the journey at Sayram Lake.
Mist, birch colour, village smoke and Kanas water form an autumn photography route.
Two nights in Kashgar and two in Tashkurgan give the highland more than a day trip.
A meal after skiing. A walk back in town. Time to look at the photographs. These are not empty spaces outside the trip.
