Shuichun River Rafting
水春河漂流
A canyon rafting trip on the upper Zhangjiang, about 13 km long, alternating rapids and calm stretches, with karst peaks and Buyi villages along the banks.
The Shuichun River is the most beautiful stretch of the Zhangjiang before it flows past Libo county town, named after the Buyi village of Shuichun on its banks. The full trip covers about 17 km. The rafting section is about 13 km and takes 2.5–3 hours, passing dozens of gorge views and several rapids with modest drops. The remaining stretch is covered by a motorboat transfer to the pier. It is typically open from May to September, and tickets cost about 150–200 yuan per person, subject to confirmation on site. The endpoint is near the county town, and the scenic area runs shuttle buses back to the starting point. Life jackets are required. Keep your phone in a waterproof bag, and bring a change of clothes.
