Highlights of Nanjiang Grand Canyon

Rafting Adventures

Nanjiang Grand Canyon offers two thrilling rafting experiences: a 5-kilometer leisurely drift and an adrenaline-pumping 8-kilometer adventure. The leisurely drift is the first half of the adventurous journey. Starting at the park entrance, the river’s current is gentle. Passing by iconic waterfall sites like Shuiluo Pavilion and Caozi Pond, the leisurely drift concludes at Ladder Rock Restaurant. For the adventurous drift, the journey continues beyond this point, culminating at Yuanyang Lake. Returning to the park entrance from Yuanyang Lake offers two options: taking a cable car to the mountaintop or climbing over 900 precarious steps to the summit, followed by a free shuttle bus ride back.


Délices culinaires

Nanjiang Grand Canyon’s dining experience embodies the distinct flavors of Guizhou cuisine, known for its spicy, sour, fragrant, and robust dishes. Leveraging Kaiyang County’s reputation as a region abundant in selenium-rich produce, the local cuisine offers a healthy dose of selenium, making it a preferred choice for visitors. Meals are creatively intertwined with selenium-rich elements—selenium-enriched noodles, teas, meats, and more. Locally sourced free-range chicken, eggs, native pork, assorted wild vegetables, and Nanjiang small freshwater fish provide guests with an organic and selenium-rich dining experience.


Golden Bell Waterfall

The Golden Bell Waterfall, a magnificent calcified cascade, stands over 30 meters tall. When struck, it resonates like the chime of a bell, earning its moniker. The formation of this calcified waterfall is due to the abundant calcium content in the water. As the water flows, the calcium gradually precipitates, forming calcified deposits that, over time, build up into a stone-like waterfall. Remarkably, the core of this calcified waterfall is hollow. Adventurous visitors can crawl through the bottom and emerge through the top hole of the waterfall—an exhilarating and unforgettable experience.
