Tiger Roar · Yunbo Jinsha

Hotel overlooking Tiger Leaping Gorge

Tiger Roar · Yunbo Jinsha is a recently opened guesthouse beside the Jinsha River, in the Tiger Leaping Gorge area between Lijiang and Shangri-La. Its main attraction is the direct view of the canyon and surrounding mountains. It suits travellers who want to stay close to nature and enjoy a peaceful stop after a day of hiking.

The guesthouse is close to several key points along the Tiger Leaping Gorge hiking route, including Zhonghutiao and Tiger Leaping Stone. This makes it convenient for planning a hiking stop without long transfers. The setting is remote and mountainous, so the property is best chosen for its scenery and quiet surroundings rather than for restaurants, nightlife or urban activities.

Rooms feature a contemporary design with large windows focused on the mountain scenery. Options include double, twin and family rooms, as well as two-bedroom suites. Some rooms look directly over the canyon, while others face the courtyard or indoor areas. Comfort suits a hiking stay, with comfortable bedding, air conditioning, private bathrooms, Wi-Fi and humidifiers in several room types.

The guesthouse includes a Chinese and Sichuan restaurant, tea room, terrace and pleasant courtyard. Breakfast is included, and the team helps guests arrange transport and hiking departures. Our local advisor particularly values the warm welcome, the views from the rooms and the convenient access to the trails. We recommend this address to couples, families and hikers looking for a characterful stay in the gorge. Travellers without private transport should plan their transfers in advance, as the property is away from the main towns.
