Qingxi Gorge Via Ferrata

Giving up before even getting started?

As soon as it begins, Via Ferrata propels you straight into vertical climbing—exposed rock faces and intricate steel ladders surge toward you, while your excited heart is suddenly weighed down by an intense sense of urgency. Gripping the steel rungs with your hands and balancing on narrow crossbars with your feet, every step demands unwavering focus, lest you lose your equilibrium.

“The real challenge is just beginning—no way we’re backing down now!” Suddenly, a friend ahead turned back and shouted with enthusiasm, his voice cutting through the wind like a burst of determination. Following the trail upward, you could already spot the rock face ahead. The three large red characters "Qingxi Gorge" stand out vividly—this is the goal of the first climbing route, almost like a guiding beacon in the mountains and wilderness. Instantly, it dispelled a bit of hesitation, prompting the fellow climbers to grip the steel frame tighter and ascend even more determinedly.

Climb the Flying Ladder, heading straight for this grand feast in the mountains and fields.

Autumn vibes are at their peak.

Suspension Bridge and Boardwalk

Joy in the valley

After pushing through the initial climb, the suspension bridge suddenly came into view. Our friends who had already crossed ahead had completely forgotten their earlier exhaustion and fear, eagerly teasing those lagging behind—their minds consumed entirely by thoughts of how to pull one over on them next. Using the last of his strength, he increased the challenge for his teammates back at the base, raising the screams echoing through the valley just a bit higher—and scattering laughter even more freely. Right now, the partner in the back no longer feels arm fatigue or shaky legs—instead, they’re holding up the camera to capture the funniest, most embarrassing moment of their buddy on the bridge.

Walking across the bridge, the sheltered rest platform beneath the three characters "Qingxi Gorge" becomes a tranquil haven. Surrounded by autumn mountains and shimmering green waters that seem to frame the scene, you’re greeted by the emerald-green river flowing gently below. Listen as the breeze rustles through the leaves, and join your friends in casual conversation—just the perfect moment to catch your breath, recharge your energy, and gear up for whatever comes next!

100-Meter Sky Ladder

Screaming start—AAAAA!

Just emerging from the thrill of scaling the vertical rock wall, the real "hardcore challenge" took center stage—the 100-meter sky ladder spanning across the clear stream.

“I’ll lead the way—follow me!” Our bravest friend took the first step, and as soon as her foot touched the first rung, a gust of mountain wind swept straight toward her. Her body swayed slightly in response, sending the entire steel ladder trembling ever so gently—and instantly, everyone behind her gripped the steel ropes on either side a little tighter. Carefully placing their feet onto the next rung, they paused below, looking up to see the sleek, steel ladder climbing steadily upward, its sturdy rungs reaching all the way to the summit. Each rung seemed to silently challenge the courage of those daring enough to take the climb.

Until I climbed halfway, I couldn’t resist glancing down— The emerald-green stream flows quietly beneath our feet, its shimmering ripples reflecting the lush green hills on either bank—momentarily banishing all tension as we’re swept away by the breathtaking scenery. But the next second, lifting your gaze to the steel staircase still stretching upward toward the mountain peak, that thrilling sense of accelerated heartbeat—and the challenge it brings—immediately pulls you back into this very game with your own courage.

360° Suspended Heart-Shaped Bridge

"High-Altitude Romantic Blow"*

If the Sky Ladder is a "hardcore challenge," then the Suspended Heart-Shaped Bridge is definitely a "romantic knockout." As you stroll toward the center of the bridge, you feel as though you’re floating mid-air—surrounded by an autumnal mountain landscape that looks like an artist’s palette spilled open, with emerald greens, golden yellows, and fiery oranges layered in breathtaking depth. All around, the valleys are awash in vibrant hues, while the clear, babbling stream below glistens with an emerald glow.

On the cliffs of Via Ferrata, fear couldn’t be hidden—and screams couldn’t be suppressed—but not a single person on camera backed down; instead, everyone clenched their teeth and pushed through, each one standing strong to the very end.

“Quick! Take a photo for me!” Even the most timid challenger, when shouting these words, instantly exudes confidence in front of the camera, striking an effortless pose right at the bridge’s edge—with the entire valley serving as the stunning backdrop. No filters needed—each shot feels like a breathtaking, gravity-defying masterpiece.
