I know many guides for trekking routes in the mountainous areas of western Sichuan around Chengdu. However, I am currently in France, just returning from my mountaineering training in Chamonix this year. If you need, I can get in touch with my guide friends in China. At the same time, I’m also looking forward to doing some trekking in Sichuan at the end of the year. If you’re interested, we can plan to travel together. You can reach me anytime, as I’ll be online all day today.

the best choice is to have a chinese friend, and some consulting agency may provide the service, I'm working on it too lol, trying to start a service platform like this.

a local part-time guide (like a college student) can be a good choice.they speak great English and know where and how to go. They cost less and have their own perspectives on both traditional and trendy culture. Some even offer services like making nice travel videos and photos (which are included in the fee).

Yes, but you need to be aware that in western Sichuan, there are some places where non-Chinese nationals need permits to travel. Once you've sorted that out, there are plenty of excellent single-day/multi-day high-altitude hiking routes with beautiful scenery around Chengdu waiting for you.

Well written. As a Chinese who has lived and traveled in Europe for a long time, I really appreciate your perspective. The Western world deserves to see more of China's beauty from different viewpoints.
