Where is the best waterfall in Sichuan? What summer resorts are there around Chengdu?

Summer is definitely the time to find a cool place to hang out. There are some waterfalls in Sichuan that are very suitable for everyone to visit. You can go and see them when you have time. These places won't let you down. Let's go see where they are.

Pandaping Waterfall

Last year I went to Wolong Pandaping with netizens and discovered a waterfall at a fork in the road. This is a surprise.

Standing on the dirt road near the waterfall, the oncoming water vapor is super cool. Your clothes and pants will feel damp when they get wet, so please don't stand for a long time.

There seems to be a place for water discharge on this waterfall. It should not be naturally formed, but it is beautiful and shocking.

This place is located at the fork of the main road in Shangpandaping, 300 meters away!

It is recommended that you do not come here to see the waterfall alone. If you want to play, just play with Panda Ping on the road. You can go back and forth from Deyang on the same day of departure.

There are also alpine meadows, Haizi, and leisurely cattle and horses. The total grassland area is larger than Qianhaizi. The most important thing is: walk for two hours to the top (the slope is lower than Ganhaizi)! No tickets!

If you can't stay at home on the weekend and want to find a quiet place to play, you can try here.

Finally, let me summarize it for you. Here:

Short duration: Deyang lasts 2 hours. The hike takes about 2 hours and is of moderate difficulty, suitable for all ages.

Too unpopular: almost no one comes, the scenery is pristine and clean, no tickets are required.

Landscape: Alpine grassland, leisurely cows and horses. There is also a super waterfall nearby!

Address: Wolong Panda Ping, Wenchuan

Note: The hiking route will pass through some collapsed areas, so pay attention to safety. If you can't find your way to the local area, you can ask locals how to get to Niuping.

Jiaermengcuo Forest Waterfall

Jiaermengcuo Forest Waterfall is located in the Mengtun River Valley, with a ditch inside. There are streams, waterfalls, red rocks, virgin forests, mountains and the sea in the ditch. This is a great place to get close to nature and go hiking. Suitable for every occasion.

The waterfall is located in the first half of Garmeng Tso Valley and can be seen by walking for about half an hour. Not high, the amount of water is average, but it’s better than cold. After all, there is forest all around.

I am bored on weekends. With family and friends, you might as well come here to get to know nature, listen to the mountain breeze, look at the forest, and take a walk. It can not only exercise the body, but also enhance friendship and feelings. why not?

You can go back and forth from Deyang in the same day without going into a deep ditch. To see Haizi, Hongshi and other landscapes, you need to hike up the mountain for about 6-8 hours. Camping is required.

Longquan Jiuyanqiao Waterfall

What? There are also waterfalls in Longquan? Yes, you are right. There is a mini waterfall in Longquan Mountain! Brother Shuo, who was wandering in Longquan, ran into the mountains many times and finally found the legendary Jiuyanqiao Waterfall.

I believe that many friends who have walked this road will not easily discover the secret of this place. After all, it is too small and inconspicuous.

Below the waterfall is a pool. The last time I went, the water was very murky. Let's just get in the water, but paddling should be fine. There is a flat area next to the pool where we can camp and have a barbecue. Hanging a hammock and tying it to a nearby tree is also very comfortable.

There is a very long and small stream flowing out of the pond. If you have friends, you can try catching crabs or something!

A must-see when traveling

Address: Below the Qianfeng Reservoir in Longquan Mountain (below the red circle)

Notes:

1. It’s hot Don't come when. Although there is wind and shade in the mountains, it is also hot.

2. If you come here, you can drive to 012 Township Road and you will know another Longquan Mountain.

Leshan Hundred Meter Waterfall

In Leshan Shawan Commercial Village, there is a wild pit called Mud Douyan, which many people don’t know about. Hidden here is a deep cave and a super high natural waterfall.

When I went there two years ago, I was alone the whole time. We didn’t even seem to have seen anyone in the village and couldn’t ask for directions. I’ve watched too many ghost movies, and it’s really a bit penetrating.

The moment I saw the waterfall, the first poem that came to my mind was Li Bai's poem "Three Thousand Feet of Flow Down". The waterfall cascading from the top of the mountain into the cave below kept me excited for a while.

Friends who have never seen caves and waterfalls can come and have a look. They can go back and forth for two days on the weekend and need to camp. The hole below can be drilled shallowly or deeply. If you go deep into a cave, you'd better have equipment, otherwise you won't be able to get back up.

Address: Leshan Shawan Commercial Village

Self-driving: Answer: Deyang-Niushi Town, this self-driving friend navigated directly to Ha. The whole journey is good and can be done by car.

b: From Niushi Town to Commercial Village, don’t look at the navigation, otherwise you will have to take a long detour. Before leaving Niushi Town, there is a left turn with a direction sign for Mud Douyan Falls. (White left turn) Then, go straight along the main road.

The entire rural cement road is in good condition but so narrow that only one vehicle can travel. If you encounter a wrong car, you need to retreat to the nearest wrong car. It takes about 30-40 minutes.

The entire route is as follows

Tianhe Falls

"Tianhe Falls" is located in Zhouhe Township, Ya'an City. Mizokou is more than 20 kilometers away from Ya'an and about 5 kilometers away from Wang Yu. It took about 2 hours in the past. In the early years, this place was half developed but not developed.

Here in June, the waterfall goes down the mountain and goes straight to Bitan Lake below. Cool air blew on my face. Surrounded by dense forests, it is a natural resort to escape the summer heat.

There are many small waterfalls on both sides of the mountain road, and the water flows all the way to the mysterious ravine. If there are many people here on weekends, you can dig a secret swimming spot next to you!

Gaodiedong Waterfall

Gaodiedong Waterfall is the largest wild waterfall group in Ya'an and is also located around Wangyu Town. If you have been here, you can also arrange to have a look.

The locals here jokingly call it the "little yellow fruit tree". Although it doesn't have the real scent of Huangguoshu, it has the temperament of Xiaojiabiyu.

The pool here is deeper than Tianhe Falls. It is not recommended to take children to play inside. Adults should also pay attention. Swimming rings, inflatable beds, and life jackets are all ready.

Families with children can take their children to tread water and catch crabs in the stream below, which is also a good idea.

Daihe Village is the starting point for hiking. From here on, it is about a 4km one-way mountain road with beautiful scenery and dense vegetation, creating an environment with high negative oxygen ion content, making it an ideal hiking path.

Friends who have kayaks or inflatable boats must bring them! Daijia Village is quite suitable for rafting!

Tianhe Falls (A), Wangyu Ancient Town (C) and Gaodiedong Waterfall (B) are distributed in a triangle. It’s just right to play slowly for two days on the weekend.

Pengzhou Panlong Valley

It’s less than a 2-hour drive from here, but it’s extremely cool.

Gulong is located in Dong Xiaoyu, Pengzhou City. There are many waterfalls in the ditch, and it is known as the largest group of waterfalls in Chengdu.

Go to the waterfall to feel the cool water vapor, which doubles the cooling effect! My back was sweating, and a chill rushed through my body. It’s such a great feeling to experience winter and summer at the same time.

The adults barbecued, drank, and gossiped, while the children fished and caught tadpoles in the water. I was very full and had a great weekend. Caring for your baby easily is just a water gun away from you.

After thinking about it for a moment, everyone must pay attention to safety while enjoying the cold waterfall water! Not getting hurt is the most important thing!
