Let me share with you a very practical guide: Transportation: It is recommended to drive by yourself, the navigation is direct, and there is a parking lot in the scenic area. Tian tickets: It can be booked in advance on major platforms or purchased on site. (Rafting is not allowed if you are under 1.2 meters tall.) Preparation work: A change of clothes must be prepared from the inside out, because you will definitely get wet all over. Sandals, slippers are not recommended as they are easily washed away. Waterproof bag for mobile phone, this is very important, you can take pictures while rafting. Sun protection products, the sun is still very poisonous, so if you don’t want to get tanned, you must use sun protection. The best tool for a water fight is a water ladle. Water fights are more enjoyable. Rafting process: √Go to the parking lot square first to check in clothes and put the boxes in them After being transported downstream, your whole body will be wet after rafting. You can change and wash directly after the end (there is free warm water bathing) √ There are five special rafting processes in the entire rafting process: "Cave rafting, underground river rafting, waterfall rafting, canyon rafting, roundabout rafting" There will be a relatively gentle river at the beginning, where you can get used to it and enjoy the beautiful scenery around you.

💕💕💕This is my first time rafting. I read a lot of guides before going, but none of them were detailed enough. After going this time, I specially summarized an article for friends in need. Other fees besides the rafting ticket will be listed separately. ✋🏻✋🏻✋🏻Don’t go too early! ! ! The rafting will not start until 11:30 noon and will not open earlier! ! ! ❤️Parking fee is 10 yuan, and there is a good parking location. 👉🏻👉🏻👉🏻Things you must bring and things you don’t need to bring: 🧡1. You must bring a waterproof bag for your mobile phone! ! ! The kind that hangs around your neck allows you to take photos while rafting. 💛2. Bring water-throwing tools. When people throw water at each other, you must have tools to fight back! ! ! I have personally found that a small basin is more useful, you can just scoop water and pour it! 💚3. Be sure to bring a change of clothes. 💙4. ​​Raincoats are totally useless! ! ! You will definitely get soaked! ! ! Because first of all, once you get on the boat, your whole body is sitting in the water, and where there is a big drop in the water, the water will completely pour onto your body and the boat! ! ! 👉🏻👉🏻👉🏻Clothing check-in: ❤️If you want to take a shower after rafting, you need to check in your clothes first. The clothes will be sent to the free bathing place at the end of the rafting. Just take the key given to find your box, open it and take out the clothes. To check in your drifting clothing, the provided iron box costs 10 yuan. The box is about the size of a shoe box and can hold the thin summer clothing of 2-3 people. You can also directly check in your own backpack for 20 yuan. 🧡If you don't check in your clothes, you can change clothes in the locker room at the ticket office at the main entrance after you come out, but you can't take a shower. 👉🏻👉🏻👉🏻The total rafting time is about 1 hour. There are two relatively long tunnels in the middle which are very exciting. There are only a few places with large drops in the rest. Overall, it is relatively stable and more suitable for rafting novices and those with children. ❤️1. There are two entrances: the rafting entrance and the scenic area entrance. Don’t go to the wrong one. Go in through the rafting entrance, put on your equipment, and pass through the hall to get on the rafting boat directly. 🧡2. After getting on the boat, practice paddling more in calm water. Otherwise, if you don’t know how to paddle in a whirlpool later, you will have to stay there until you grope your way through the whirlpool. 💛3. During the rafting process, there are masters with bamboo poles to help at the bends and places with fast-flowing water, so the safety is still very high. 💚4. There are several water activities not far from the end of the rafting. We took a shower and changed clothes directly after rafting, for fear that our clothes would get wet if we continued to play the activities. Friends who are interested can play the activities first and then take a shower and change clothes. 💙5. The Dacongtan Waterfall is super beautiful. It is only about 100 meters away from the end of the rafting. You must go there to take a look. 💜6. The return bus costs 20 yuan per person, which is about a 10-minute drive. The pick-up point is near the end of the rafting.
