More ways to explore the area's outdoor wonders
The morning mist parts as a narrow bamboo raft slips around the first bend of the Nine‑bend River, cliffs of red Danxia rock rising like folded pages above the water. You feel the current nudge the boat, reeds brushing the hull, and the guide’s pole finding quieter channels where limestone and tea terraces frame the view.

Expect wet conditions on the raft
Wear quick‑dry clothing and shoes that grip — the bamboo raft is exposed to spray and occasional wet planks.
Stair sections to overlooks
Heavenly Tour Peak and many viewpoints require climbing stone steps; pace yourself and use handrails where provided.
Bring cash for small purchases
Local stalls and some village vendors may not accept cards — small bills for snacks and tips are useful.
Protect Dahongpao trees
Do not attempt to touch or approach the protected mother trees — viewing platforms are provided for a reason.
Sturdy hiking shoes
Support and traction for stone steps, wet paths and short canyon trails.
Light rain jacket
Spring showers are common; a packable shell keeps you dry during raft and trail sections.
