The Qiupuhu River rafting originates from the Qiupuhu River in the deep mountainous area of southern Anhui (with a forest coverage rate of 87%) within the jurisdiction of Shitai County. The river water is as clear and beautiful as autumn, and the scenery on both banks is picturesque. The Tang Dynasty poet Li Bai visited Qiupuhu several times, leaving behind the well-known ‘Seventeen Poems of Qiupuhu’, such as ‘The pheasant is ashamed of the green water, not daring to reflect on its plumage’ and ‘Thousands of camellia trees, millions of ligustrum forests’, which are true portrayals of the beauty of Qiupuhu.
Qiupuhu rafting will bring you a brand-new rafting experience. The Qiupuhu rafting section is distinctive: ancient trees on both banks, rapid waters, and dangerous shoals, all of which are vividly depicted in Li Bai’s ‘Water Wheel Ridge, Ostrich Bay, and Fish Beam Dam’. The Qiupuhu rafting, with a total length of 5 kilometers, passes through several dangerous rapids with variously shaped rocks, where you can ride a raft and surf passionately in the water. The Qiupuhu rafting, with a total length of 15 kilometers, passes through 14 dangerous rapids with variously shaped rocks, where you can ride a raft and surf passionately in the water. Visitors to the scenic area can grind stones on the riverbank, step on water wheels, taste bamboo tube rice of Qiupu fishermen in the water restaurant, barbecue on the beach, play in the river bay, and hunt in the ancient willow forest, making it an ideal place for rafting and leisure.
