SPECIAL

Global travel resources

In recent years, winter sports have been rapidly gaining ground in the outdoor travel scene. Capitalizing on this strong momentum, the 2019 Asia-Pacific Outdoor Expo Travel Life Zone will add a Ski Destination Zone and a Club Zone, along with a series of special promotional activities centered around snow travel. On-site,BOOMSKI(WeChat Official Account: BOOMSKI), dedicated to ski travel life and focused on trendy ski communities, will gatherofficial tourism bureaus and snow region representatives from globally renowned outdoor travel destinations such as Switzerland, France, Finland, Austria, and Japan, showcasing each country’s rich tourism resources and off-the-beaten-path routes, offering everyone high-quality “ski experience travel products” and “exclusive special offers.”

In the highest-altitude town in Switzerland, Arosa, there is a 1.5-kilometer-long forest hiking trail extending from Arosa to Malans. In the off-season, small animals are the most frequent visitors here – cute squirrels are active year-round, charming chickadees constantly make their presence known, and occasionally you might even spot a meet-up between antelopes and foxes.

Known as the “Land of a Thousand Islands” and the “Land of a Thousand Lakes,” this Nordic land is home to romantic auroras, fascinating architecture, the adorable Santa Claus, and breathtaking snowy landscapes. In Finland, skiing is part of everyday life, especially in Lapland, which straddles the Arctic Circle. Dog sledding, forest off-roading, snowshoe hiking, ice cave saunas... everything here exudes raw wilderness, making it a favorite among outdoor enthusiasts.

The romance of France lies not only in its exquisite cuisine and elegant fashion, but also in “sports.” There’s the “Tour de France” that takes you over mountains and across towns, and the “Mont Blanc Ascent” that embodies perseverance and courage – the title of outdoor paradise is well-deserved. But what truly draws in enthusiasts of the “white drug” are the hundreds of ski resorts nestled in the French Alps, where you can ski for hundreds of kilometers on various slopes, enjoy a diverse range of snow activities, and experience the captivating après-ski life filled with music and wine. If you’re looking for a chance to truly unwind, France’s Auvergne region is the perfect choice.

Land where the Danube flows and music dances—Austria is a pilgrimage destination for artists. The Vienna Golden Hall and a wide array of museums can easily fill your entire trip, while Innsbruck, the “heart of Europe” nestled in the Alps, offers the charm of a medieval old town. In your free time, you can also cycle through the Wilder Kaiser mountains, exploring nature reserves blessed with breathtaking mountain scenery. This is an exquisite country where nature and culture blend seamlessly.

When traveling to Japan, aside from admiring the tender cherry blossoms in April, you shouldn’t miss the hot springs. To avoid the crowds, skip Hakone and opt for other ski resorts that offer hot spring facilities. For example, after skiing at the Gunma Kusatsu Onsen International Ski Resort, you can visit Kusatsu Onsen, which has won the “Japan Onsen 100 Selection” championship for 16 consecutive times, and enjoy the unforgettable cultural spectacle—the Yumomi Show.

These countries have significant advantages in both natural and cultural resources, and their outdoor tourism development is also highly advanced. For instance, they all feature large-scale, high-quality ski resorts. Some ski clubs collaborate across borders to offer multi-country ski packages tailored for skiing enthusiasts.

The allure of ice and snow doesn’t end there. Shift your gaze to the two ends of the Earth—the unique landscapes of the North and South Poles are equally captivating. Come to the Asia-Pacific Outdoor Exhibitionin the Travel Life ZonePenguin Travel(WeChat Official Account: Penguin Travel)is a team specializing in customized polar travel plans. They don’t push fixed itineraries but insteadstart from individual needs, proposing a three-step method of “route-cruise-season” to match the best polar voyagesand fulfill your ultimate travel dreams.

As the icy world flips to the Southern Hemisphere, the Northern Hemisphere enjoys just the right temperatures. With temperatures around 10–20 degrees Celsius and gentle sunshine, late spring is perfect for crafting a comfortable and relaxing lifestyle. But during longer holidays like the May Day break, how do you maintain such comfort? At theTravel Life Zoneon-site, you might find the answer too.

Choose Unique Homestays

From chasing star-rated hotels to opting for cozy homestays, travelers’ preferences are quietly shifting. With improved economic conditions and evolving travel concepts, the income of the homestay industry has also risen steadily. Official data shows that Moganshan Town, the pioneer of homestay influencers, achieved direct revenue of 350 million yuan in 2018. In October 2016, Moganshan Town was also selected for the first batch of China’s Characteristic Towns list due to its booming homestay culture, continuing to attract thousands of domestic and international tourists eager to experience its “slow-paced” lifestyle.

Today’s homestays are not the revamped “farm stays” people once imagined. TheTravel Life Zonewill soon showcase theMoganshan Benshe Boutique Hotel(WeChat Official Account: Benshe Boutique Hotel BENLinkHotel)which, while maintaining the high-quality service model of traditional hotels, also creates public areas that cater to various vacation needs of travelers.

Outdoor enthusiasts can also find their own fun within this seemingly “slow-paced” life: the hotel thoughtfully designs multiple hiking and cycling routes, and even features a climbing wall outside the dining bar, allowing solo adventurers to take on climbing challenges and unleash their inner (girl/boy) power.

DIY Travel Life

In addition to staying in distinctive local homestays to experience different lifestyles, travelers can also choose experienced guides to recommend routes; they can even go deeper and craft their own unique travel experiences by doing it themselves: cooking outdoor meals in a wilderness kitchen, camping under the stars to embrace nature in its purest form... This isn’t just an unrealistic fantasy.

At the Asia-Pacific Outdoor Show,Fire-Maple(WeChat official account: Fire Maple),Heydeer(WeChat official account: Heilu Camping)ALOCS(WeChat official account: ALOCS Ailuke)and other outdoor living experts will not only showcase their latest products of the year but also set up themed scenarios. Enjoy hassle-free barbecues without smoke chasing you away, sit around a table chatting and laughing in the wild, or pitch an open-air tent at night to gaze at the stars and moon while discussing poetry and life aspirations. Thanks to cutting-edge outdoor gear, people can bring everyday life into nature and infuse poetry into their travels.

If you want to turn your interest in DIY journeys into a career and become a professional outdoor route planner, then come to the Asia-Pacific Outdoor Show to learn aboutDandao Outdoor(WeChat official account: Kunshan Landao Outdoor)and their travel coordinator training courses—recharge your passion.

In the outdoors, seek release and growth

For adults, outdoor travel may be a quest for poetry or a way to unleash their long-repressed true selves—all of which can be fulfilled at the Asia-Pacific Outdoor Show.GS Adventures Park Motorcycle Endurance Parkwill not only present the European motorcycling holiday lifestyle on-site, promoting riding culture, but also host thrilling events featuring heavy-duty rally motorcycles, delivering the “speed and passion” of travel life.

For motorcycle enthusiasts, “customization” is a must. At the 2019 Asia-Pacific Outdoor Show,Snowwolf Motorcycles’custom works will offer you plenty of inspiration; meanwhile, a variety of related accessories will also be available, adding more surprises to your outdoor adventures.

For children, an unexplored wilderness adventure serves as a powerful catalyst. Currently, domestic scenic areas are leveraging their premium tourism resources to develop a “camp education” tourism model, engaging young people in outdoor learning through team-based living and diverse experiential activities that foster well-rounded growth. This model is still in the exploratory stage, and industry peers can engage in more detailed discussions at the exhibition to deepen collaboration and refine practical implementation plans.

The 2019 Asia-Pacific Outdoor Show will showcase more trendy travel styles such as “4+2” (driving + cycling), bike touring, RV camping, and motorcycle trips, opening up new outdoor experiences for travelers.
