Crab Creek

Crab Creek

Crab Creek is just 1 kilometer from Longsheng Hot Springs and can be reached on foot in 30 minutes. Nestled within dense forests, Crab Creek receives only about three hours of sunlight per day on average, with an annual average temperature of 16.1°C and a summer average of 22.1°C — more than 10°C lower than the surrounding areas. In the scenic valley, the gentle stream flows as melodiously as a violin, while the dripping springs from between rocks tinkle like plucked strings, and the powerful rush of water that sounds like a brass ensemble must be the torrent plunging down steep cliffs and into deep pools. The creek is abundant with crabs, and their large numbers give the area its name.
