Product Overview 📖
Gulongxia Rafting is located in Qingxin District, Qingyuan City. Built on a natural river channel, it is a professional course that has hosted international natural water rafting competitions multiple times and is also a designated rafting venue by the General Administration of Sport of China. The course is 6,063 meters long with a total drop of 378 meters and a top speed of 72 kilometers per hour. It is divided into a standard course and an extreme course, making it the longest, steepest, and fastest rafting course in Guangdong Province. It has also successfully challenged two world records.
This place is renowned as a roller coaster on the crest of the wave, with an average gradient of 9.5% and a thrilling 180-degree hairpin turn called "Dragon's Head Turns Back." The entire canyon is characterized by towering mountains, dense forests, and ancient trees, forming a natural "forest tunnel." The highest temperature in the area is only 22℃ throughout the year, making it cool and shaded year-round, one of the few rafting spots in Guangdong where sunscreen is unnecessary. The rafting water source is from Gulong Cave, with cool, clear spring water of excellent quality. The industry has a saying: "For rafting in China, go to Qingyuan; for rafting in Qingyuan, go to Gulong." The river course was designed by international experts and has obtained multiple official safety certifications. In 2019, it was newly upgraded with an Amazonian tribe theme, creating fun obstacle courses such as Gorilla Island, Crocodile Pool, and Dinosaur Valley, providing a truly immersive experience.
