Jiuxilu Drifting in Longyan

✨ Quick Facts

? Rafting Experience & Highlights

? Forest Oxygen Bar Adventure

Nicknamed the “No.1 Virgin Forest Rafting”, Jiuxilu offers a thrilling journey under dense canopy shade, ensuring you won’t get sunburned. With negative oxygen ion levels reaching 70,000/cm³, you’ll rush through a 320-meter total drop over 3 km, like riding a roller coaster on water.

? Crystal-Clear Mountain Spring

The rafting water comes from Jiuxilu’s highest peak at 1,538 meters elevation. It’s pure, pollution-free mountain spring water — clean enough to see the riverbed clearly.

? Varied River Experience

• Front section: Sharp turns, rapids, and adrenaline-pumping drops.

• Back section: Calmer waters, perfect for appreciating the lush scenery — including tree fern groves and wild orchids. You can even stop ashore for a short hike.

? Unique Mid-River Stops

Halfway through, a “treehouse supply station” provides cold drinks and local snacks (try the fried “Youzha Guo”). At the finish, relax at a forest café, where coffee is brewed with spring wate
