This river trace is fun for quite a few climbing-ups and there are a few pools. Ropes are suggested for those who don't climb well.

A natural bouldering gym. The river trace is short but has a lot of climbs.

Dajianshan waterfalls group are here. It is a canyoning route and there are 3 tall waterfalls between 15-25 meters. The first one, tallest waterfall, can also be reached by river tracing upstream whereas canyoning is traveling downstream. The climbing-up to the third waterfall is nearly vertical, but the path to the second tall waterfall is not hard ... .

The creek has a bunch of small waterfalls to climb up if you go far enough. The right fork is much more fun than the left one(24.79661,121.48774).

This tributary is by Wanrong Hot Spring (NOT Molishaka), also called Yuanyanggu Hot Spring, and thus has a lot of outcrops popping out of the valley and creating special colorful walls, and a tiny hot spring pool can be found on the way. The distance of this river trace is short yet somehow challenging, which involves a few techniques such as boosti ... ng, climbing, swimming across pools, and a short rappelling on the way back. The gorge in the end has the vibes of Lisong Hot Spring, but there is not a hot spring pool. There are a 6 meters waterfall, which is difficult to trace up, and an emerald pool by a colorful wall. After the waterfall are 2 much taller waterfalls with one of them being 20 meters tall. This creek is advised to be visited only in dry seasons, when the main river, Wanli River, is much less likely to flood than in summer, when the rainy season is, and it takes several days for the water level to descend after each medium rain, not to mention frequent and violent afternoon downpours in summer.
