Yulong River, a small tribute of Li River, also called Little Li River, rises in Lingui County inYangshuo. The river is about 43 kilometers (26 miles) long, with a drainage area of approximately 158 square kilometers (39,043 acres). The part of the river that stretches from Yulong Bridge in Baisha Town, to Gongnong Bridge near Big Banyan, is known as the Yulong River Scenic Area, and includes some spectacular scenic views along each river bank.

The Yulong River Scenic Area has many tourist attractions interspersed with cultural and historical ones. The languid river is surrounded by a primitive, but pure, natural landscape, combined with green bamboo forests and rolling hills. Yulong River winds through rice planting fields, farm house, fishing bonds and thousands of limestone peaks. Most tourist traffic on this river is on small bamboo rafts. The going price for a trip on these rafts is about 150 Yuan per raft.

Swimming is also a popular activity on this river. There are several swimming holes on the river. Swimming here is safer than on the Li River as there is a smaller current and it is not as deep.

The excellent composition of water, ancient bridges and mountains along this waterway is one of the favorite choices of photographers and artists coming to the area. For those who are looking for a fabulous hike and bike tour, cycle to Baisha's Yulong Bridge through the trails along the Yulong River, and stay on bamboo raft down river to Gao Tian. You'll pass six unforgettable ancient bridges during the 5-hour walk, or 3 hour cycling.

You can also choose a half day tour, follow our package to cycle for one hour to the Yulong river, visit local villages and rice paddies, rafting down the river for two more hours. These can be some of the most memorable days on your China experience.
