Enjoy Rafting on Mengdong River

Mengdong River Scenic Area is widely known as an ideal place for rafting. Because of the fantastic scenery and unforgettable experience, rafting on Mengdong River has gained an appellation (locally) of "number one rafting spot in the world".

You can float down the river on rubber rafts. It has an adventurous feel, with torrents of water careening at sharp turns and off steep ramps. However, it is designed to be quite safe. It is easy, exciting, and full of fun.
