In the southern part of Yizhang County, Chenzhou City, Hunan Province, nestled among the Wuling Mountains, lies a lush green treasure trove with a splendid view. The region is known for its local specialties such as Mangshan black pigs, Mangshan chicken, Mangshan bitter bamboo shoots, Mangshan mushrooms, and Mangshan high mountain cloud tea. This is Mangshan, known as the ‘Second Xishuangbanna’ and the ‘Natural Arboretum of the South’. With a mild climate and abundant rainfall, the superior natural conditions have resulted in a diverse range of forest vegetation, creating a unique and interesting pattern. Tropical, subtropical, temperate, and even a few cold-climate forest plants gather and thrive here.
Mangshan Grand Canyon Rafting, supported by a professional team and construction technology, has created a rafting style with large water volume, large drop, large scenery, wildness, and a grand pattern, becoming a safe, novel, and regionally distinctive natural ecological rafting project. The original ecological canyon, now dredged to 9.8 kilometers in length with a vertical drop of 298 meters, offers a rafting experience with drinkable mineral water, which is set to become the fashion benchmark for southern rafting and establish the brand of ‘The Best Rafting in the South’.
The rafting is complemented by comprehensive visitor service facilities, with a daily reception capacity of up to 16,000 people. The service center includes hot shower rooms, intelligent lockers, and visitor leisure areas. Along the river, there are rest docks and rafting escorts to provide safe and thoughtful services for visitors. The surrounding accommodation and food services are well-developed, with 56 hotels and inns including Mangshan Forest Hot Spring Hotel, Mangshan Hotel, Tianyuan Hotel, and Leshui Mountain Holiday Hotel, allowing you to fully enjoy the ‘Taste of the Yao Mountain Yao Ethnic Style, Play with Thrilling Rafting’.
