Tongtianhe National Forest Park
通天河国家森林公园
A national forest park in the western Qinling. Its valley waterfalls, forest and cool summer climate attract self-driving visitors seeking to escape the heat.
Tongtianhe National Forest Park lies in the northeast of Fengxian County, Baoji, in the interior of the western Qinling. It is the source area of the Tongtian River, a tributary of the Jialing River. The park has high forest cover, with large tracts of primeval and secondary forest, peaks, streams and waterfalls. Summer average temperatures are about 20°C, which makes it suitable for hiking, cooling off and family water play. Autumn foliage is colorful. Inside the park, there are forest cabins and farmhouse inns (nongjiale) for overnight stays. A visit takes about half a day, and admission follows official announcements. The park is about 80 km from Baoji city and requires self-driving. It can be combined with the Jialing River Source Scenic Area for a two-day trip.
