It consists of two parts: the No.1 Rafting in Western Zhejiang and the Little Three Gorges of Western Zhejiang.
The No.1 Rafting in Western Zhejiang involves rafting on a bamboo raft across open river flats, spanning a total length of 6 kilometers. Along the way, you can see the "Horse Wash Pool," where the Taiping Army once washed and watered their horses, and admire the "Thousand-Year Wild Ginkgo Tree," known as a living fossil of the Earth.
Throughout this bamboo raft journey, you can also engage in water fights—equipped with water guns, using the wind direction to your advantage, fighting as a team, and having a blast, fully immersing yourself in the joy of summer water play.
The Little Three Gorges (comprising Jiulong Gorge, Xianggong Gorge, and Yutan Gorge) involve surfing on a speedboat through rapids, passing by attractions such as the "Hidden Gem Stone" and the "Guanyin Back-Leaning Stone." You can also visit "Fairy Maiden Island." Drifting downstream, you’ll see "twin mountains can’t block the way, the light boat has already passed myriad peaks."
Fairy Maiden Island features the "Sun-Drying Cloth Rock," inscribed personally by Su Dongpo, the great literary figure of the Northern Song Dynasty. The Sun-Drying Cloth Rock scenic area is named for a massive cliff on the edge of a precipice, which is 200 meters wide and 80 meters high, resembling a long strip of colorful cloth hanging out to dry. Legend says that Fairy Maiden He once weaved and sun-dried cloth here.
