Qingfeng Gorge Waterfall Spectacle

With its deep canyon and cascading waterfalls like white ribbons, this cool world deep in the Qinling Mountains is waiting for you to explore.

The area boasts over 95% vegetation coverage and an average annual temperature of just 7.6°C, making it a true "natural oxygen bar" and "natural air-conditioned room." Today, I personally visited this 4A-level scenic spot, known as a "summer resort," and brought you the freshest travel tips!

A Natural Wonder Like an Ink Painting

Stepping into Qingfeng Gorge, you are instantly surrounded by lush greenery. Towering ancient trees block the sky, the sound of babbling streams and birdsong creates a symphony, and the fresh air carries the scent of plants and trees. Every breath feels like a cleansing for your lungs.

The Qingfeng Waterfall is the most stunning attraction in the park! It cascades down from a cliff over 120 meters high like a white ribbon soaring through the air, with the roar of rushing water. Standing at the base of the waterfall, the mist gently brushes your face, and the refreshing coolness instantly dispels all the summer heat.

The park is rich in scenic spots, featuring "Nine Pools, Eighteen Waterfalls, and Seventy-two Views," including Liujin Waterfall, Xiantao Mountain, Camel Peak, and Goddess Peak. The scenery changes with every step, leaving visitors dazzled.

Complete Guide to Hiking Routes

Qingfeng Gorge offers two main hiking routes:

Mist Waterfall Cliff Route: Suitable for adventure seekers, this route is steeper and offers magnificent views.
Goddess Peak Route (Recommended): A wooden plank path along the stream, easy and relaxing, perfect for mountain and water play while enjoying beautiful scenery. It takes about 1.5 hours to reach the summit.

For the descent, you can try the alpine slide! The full length is 2.8 kilometers, descending along the mountain slope. You can control your speed as you weave through lush greenery—exciting and fun.

A Paradise for Family Fun

Qingfeng Gorge is not only great for hiking and adventure but also an ideal place for family trips!

The wildlife park is home to adorable black bears, elegant black swans, lively rabbits, and more. The children's playground features pirate ships, bumper cars, carousels, and other entertainment, keeping kids laughing all day.
