A complete guide to rafting on the Gaoguo River: whitewater challenges and safety guidelines

#Torrent Gaoguo River Rafting in Zhenyuan, Guizhou, is famous for its turbulent waters and magnificent canyons, and is a popular choice for summer vacation. The following are some practical tips to help you enjoy the whole process: 1. Time and equipment The best rafting season is from May to September, when the water is abundant and more exciting. It is recommended to arrive in the morning to avoid the afternoon crowds. Please bring your own non-slip sandals, waterproof mobile phone bag and change of clothes. Life jackets and helmets can be rented on site. 2. Safety Instructions The river is about 5 kilometers long with a drop of 3 meters. You need to hold the rubber boat handrails tightly and follow the instructor's instructions. Do not stand randomly in sharp bends or boulder areas. Children and those who are afraid of water are advised to experience the gentler sections. 3. Trip Highlights The water flow is strongest in the middle section, "Longwang Gorge", and it is very immersive to travel through the foggy canyon; in the last section, "Quiet Water Area", you can have a water fight to relax. There are supply stations along the way, providing ginger tea and snacks. 4. Travel around the area After rafting, you can visit the ancient town of Zhenyuan, enjoy the night view of the lights of Wuyang River, and taste sour soup fish and tofu dumplings to add the finishing touch to your journey. The Gaoguo River Rafting combines thrills and natural beauty. You need to be fully prepared before the trip to fully enjoy the charm of "South China's No. 1 Rafting"! 🌊🚣
