Yubeng Waterfall, Yunnan, China
5.0 (11 reviews) Spent Ranking #5 in Diqing Tibetan Autonomous Prefecture Waterfalls
Gorgeous Day Hike
Easily one of the best hikes I’ve taken in China. Easy paved trail with stairs but some pretty steep switchbacks near the end. Sadly litter is everywhere.
Address
South of Kawagebo Peak, Deqin County, Yunnan, China.

Beautiful and Interesting Trek
On our 3rd day in Yubeng, we trekked to Sacred Waterfall. The trek was beautiful and a relaxing one, though quite a number of ascending hikes. Took us about 6-7hours to and fro to trek from Yubeng Upper Village to here. When we reached the peak of the sacred waterfall, it's super beautiful! As mentioned by other contributors, yes it is sacred indeed. Apparently there are about 3 different waterfall, and each represents different meaning. The locals told us to fill our bottles with the water from the waterfall as the water's known to bless people. We drank the one nearer to us as we were feeling super cold and our boots were all soaked in the water while attempting to get water from the waterfall. The water's sweet and refreshing :) What an awesome hike! Can be a tad dangerous so definitely have to build up on stamina.
