Whether you're standing on a viewing platform or hiking along the narrow trail, with the thunder of the river in your ears, snow mountains ahead, and raging waters below, you'll feel both small in the face of nature and deeply empowered by it.
The gorge is divided into three sections: Upper, Middle, and Lower. Most visitors stick to the Upper Gorge. The paths and viewpoints are more developed. But if you're up for a challenge, the Middle Gorge offers one of China's most stunning hiking routes.

The best times to visit are from April to June and September to October, when the weather is pleasant and the river flow is ideal.
You can explore Tiger Leaping Gorge in half a day to a full day, but if you're doing the full hike, plan for two days with an overnight stay at a local guesthouse inside the gorge.
