In the morning you can choose to either drive or ride a horse to explore the natural treasures of Jiuqu Yellow River. Afterwards we cycle northeast along the Black River and arrive at the second camp site -- Xiaman Base Camp. On the way there you can visit a Tibetan herdsman's family to taste fresh milk, cheese and butter tea. In the evening you can swim in the lake and start a campfire to make dinner. You will sleep in tents tonight.

There are two rivers - the Hei (black) and Bai (white) rivers - crossing this area, so the region consists of marshland with many lentic ponds and small lakes. Because of its unique high plateau environment, it is one of the most famous plateau wetlands in the world.
