Road status from HuanglongJiuZhai station to Huanglong and JiuzhaiGou scenic areas
Dear kind sirs, many thanks for your many useful information. i would like to visit both of those scenic areas but am concerned about the road conditions. are these well built out multi-lane highways? or are these unsecured roads along precipitous cliffs and hangs at great altitude as they are common in Sichuan. many thanks for your help and descriptions.

Hi there,

The road between Jiuzhaigou and Huanglong is a well-paved two-lane road, but it can be a bit winding. There are several ups and downs along the hillside, so it is best to have an experienced driver at the wheel.
