2 Despite the beautiful scenery, the scenic spots are quite scattered and roads are poor. Visitors should be prepared psychologically and be ready for a tough trip.

3 If you plan to rent a car or drive to the scenic spot yourself, find a car with good performance. A SUV or a mini-bus is recommended.

4 The average temperature in Lugu Lake is around 17 degrees. The temperature in summer is between 15-25 degrees while the winter is between 3 to 18 degrees. The temperature difference between morning and night is high. You should take thick clothes even if you plan to visit in summer, and you are recommended to bring a coat.

5 The climate is a bit dry in Lugu Lake, so take skin-care products such as lip balm. Ladies can bring facial masks for re-hydration. Visitors are also recommended to bring a umbrella, a torch, sun-glasses, a hat and sun block.

6 For environmental reasons, most of the lodges in Lugu Lake no longer provide disposable items. Prepare in advance or you can purchase at local stores nearby.

7 Bring enough drugs, such as bus-sickness and digestion drugs.
