Heixiong Valley

黑熊沟

A pristine forest gorge in the Daba area, with streams, waterfalls, and boulders. It is the most popular autumn foliage hiking trail in Guangwu Mountain.

Heixiong Valley lies in the Daba section of Guangwu Mountain. It takes its name from the black bears that once roamed here. Dense primeval forest fills the valley, where clear streams tumble over waterfalls, and a boardwalk runs for several kilometers along the gorge. In autumn, red leaves blanket both banks, and many visitors rank it as the most beautiful trail in Guangwu Mountain. Take a sightseeing shuttle to the lower entrance of Heixiong Valley, walk up the boardwalk toward Yingshui, then catch a shuttle back. The path is slippery, so wear non-slip shoes. The full route takes about 2 to 3 hours.
