The core panda habitats are carefully managed and best accessed via guided tours that include overnight research stations. Beyond pandas, Wolong offers snowy peaks, raging rivers, wildlife-watched valleys*, and trail networks suitable for multi-day hikes and day walks. The area links to regional routes toward Qinghai-Tibet Plateau and is an important site for ecological research and habitat restoration.
