Harbin Mohe 6-Days Tour

This extraordinary winter journey transports travelers from the glittering ice kingdom of Harbin to the frozen frontier of Mohe, China's northernmost settlement kissing the Arctic Circle. Over six immersive days, experience the dramatic transition from urban winter wonderlands to untouched subzero wilderness where temperatures plunge below -40°C.  

Begin amidst the crystalline splendor of Harbin International Ice Festival, where illuminated ice castles tower over Songhua River. Wander through the Sun Island Snow Sculpture Park's frozen artistry before warming up with steaming pots of Northeast China's signature iron stew. The next morning, visit Stalin Park's frost-coated Russian architecture and sample Harbin's famous red sausage before boarding your northbound expedition train.  

As the train climbs toward the Greater Khingan Mountains, watch the landscape transform into endless birch forests frozen in silver hoarfrost. Arrive in Mohe to witness the mystical "white nights" phenomenon during winter solstice. At the Arctic Village, meet Evenki reindeer herders and send mail stamped with China's northernmost postmark. An evening aurora hunt (December-March) reveals dancing green ribbons across star-packed skies when solar activity permits.  

 
Dawn breaks over the Heilongjiang River's 2-meter-thick ice sheet as you cross to stand meters from Russia. Local guides demonstrate winter survival skills before leading a husky sled dash through snow-smothered taiga. Afternoon brings a snowmobile safari to untouched tundra where ptarmigans burst from powder clouds. The final morning features sunrise at the actual "North Pole" marker (58°N) before returning via the historic China-Russia border railway, passing watchtowers from 19th-century territorial disputes.  

Throughout the journey, stay in heated log cabins with kang beds (traditional heated platforms), savor moose meat hotpots, and photograph landscapes where breath crystallizes midair. Guides provide extreme cold weather gear including heated insoles and fur-lined goggles. This expedition reveals China's most alien winterscape - where cell signals fade but primal Arctic magic intensifies with every step toward the pole.

Special thanks to my guide, Sofia. It's really hard for me to find a Spanish tour guide. She is professional and I have a good understanding about the China culture under her guide. During the Xi'an trip, I was shocked by the strong atmosphere of culture. I hope I can go next time, really love it.

Independent travel by train in China…
Independent travel by train in China can be daunting ordeal. We decided to use Intoexplore for booking the trip and are very happy we did. It almost felt like Norman was a family member guiding us through how to use Alipay for payments in China to where to find the ticket office in the train station to convert digital tickets to paper. He was always available (sometimes at 6 am!) to answer any question and solve any problems that arose .. I would strongly recommend him to anyone who is thinking about independent travel to China .
