Before I came to Hangzhou, I lived in the coastal city of Weihai. I like to go running at the seaside in summer. Before leaving, I was particularly worried that I couldn't play happily in the water in summer.
When I arrived in Hangzhou, I found that I didn't have to worry about this problem at all. There are many rivers in Hangzhou, which can fully meet my summer needs. During my two years in Hangzhou, I have accumulated several good hiking spots with convenient transportation, clear streams and good environment.
Jiuxi scenic spot
Jiuxi is really recognized by Hangzhou people as a summer paradise and one of the best choices for summer vacation. Nine streams originate in Yangmeiwu and meander down Xia Yanling and Longjing Mountain. There are many streams beside the path, which is very cool.
Most streams have low water levels and slow flow, so adults and children can go in and play with water without any burden. Children can swim a little deeper (but be careful).
I suggest you go directly to Longjing Village (by car or bus), and then walk all the way along Xiaoxi to Jiuxiyan Village. Or go to Jiuxi Station, go to Li 'an Temple, and go down to play when you see your favorite stream.
If you want to make the stream deeper, go in sunny weather after the rain, and the stream will be richer. You can also take a picnic cloth or a small tent, find a flat land, lie down and rest when you are tired, or eat snacks to replenish your strength.
Jiuxi is also especially suitable for taking pictures in summer. If you want to take beautiful and refreshing photos, it is recommended to wear a simple white shirt or T-shirt and bring a cattail leaf fan or a small round fan. It will be attractive against the background of trees or streams.
Maude mother port
Maojiabu is a scenic spot in the West Lake. Actually, it's a good place with few beautiful scenery. Get off at the bus stop and you can navigate to Wufeng Caotang, where you can see a quiet and wild stream.
I like this place for a big reason, that is, there are many big stones in the beaches and streams here, and you can feel the joy of turning over stones to find small crabs.
As night falls, on the way back, you can hear vibrant insects and frogs. That moment was as reassuring and happy as the days I spent at my grandmother's house when I was a child.
I like Maojiabu not only because it can play quietly in the water, but also because of its unique scenery and atmosphere.
Unlike other West Lake attractions, it is not so prosperous, quiet and serene, and it is beautiful all year round. There are many floodplains here, with large areas of Miscanthus and reeds. Especially in autumn, Miscanthus will gradually turn yellow and sway in the sun.
Maojiabu in summer has a wonderful light and shadow atmosphere. Large reeds are reflected in the water, predatory waterfowl make ripples, and residents sitting on the shore talk and laugh in a low voice. The whole picture is incredibly beautiful.
I like going here in summer very much. Besides taking a leisurely walk, treading water and catching fish, you can also take many beautiful photos. If you want to take a picture of a quiet summer atmosphere or innocence, I also recommend you to go here.
Shangtian You Zhu Ancient Road
Tianzhu Road is also suitable for summer vacation. There are streams, temples and tea mountains along the way, and it is cool from the eyes to the soles of the feet. Along Tianzhu Road, from Fajing Temple, Fajing Temple to Faxi Temple, insects chirped all the way, which was very quiet.
People who tread water here are usually nearby residents or Hangzhou locals. Compared with Jiuxi, they will be closer to life, which is the atmosphere of treading water at home.
It is recommended to walk along the inner side of the hiking route, especially the hiking route in Shangtianzhu. It's quiet around and the stream is clear. The stream here is very shallow and suitable for walking. It will be very comfortable to go to the ice feet when you are tired.
It is difficult to have fun here because of the narrow waterways, such as fierce water fights, but it is ok to have fun.
Yuhangshan Shuangxi village
In addition to treading water as mentioned above, there is also a good place to play with water in Hangzhou, which is a little far from the city center. Shuangxi Village in Jingshan, more than 30 kilometers away from Hangzhou, has both streams and camping camps. Not only can you tread water happily, but you can also camp in the forest stream.
After driving to the tourist distribution center, you can try to park at the bottom of the ground parking lot (if it is too hot, it is best to park in the underground garage). There is a small door next to it. Go straight from there to the park. If you need to do a lot of things with a trolley, don't worry. There is also a ramp next to it, which is very convenient to get up and down.
When you get to the Green Ring Road, you will pass a memorial arch called "Dream Double Stream", and the stream will extend along the road. There will be more people at the door. You can go in. After a bamboo forest, it is wider.
Find a good place to settle down and have fun.

The stream here is very wide and can also be called a river. If the amount of water is not high, the water level in the nearby shoal will drown the instep and reach the knee position of adults. The flow rate is gentle, so it is safe to play.
The stream is clear and cool, and I am very happy just stepping in it. There are many small fish, shrimps and snails in the stream. Turning stones to catch fish can really play all afternoon.
campsite
There is a big lawn in the park. You can lie down and eat and drink comfortably with a picnic mat or tent.
Before you go into the water, you can put all the watermelons and drinks in the stream for refrigeration. If it is a small thing, it is recommended to put it together in a small net. If not, remember to surround it with stones to prevent it from being washed away by the current.
Floating on the river
Mountains can also drift, which is why some people are willing to come here. Drifting starts from the upstream and you can navigate to No.7 Zhuhai Road, Shuangxi.
There are two kinds of rafting: bamboo rafting and kayaking. You can choose a bamboo raft if you like dull, and a leather raft if you like excitement.
The wind blows along the stream, and there are lush trees or bamboo forests on the shore, which is very relaxing. The whole drifting process was smooth and the clothes were not so wet. Everyone did it after drifting. Raft rafting is more exciting, and the diving route will make people feel the coolness of summer at once. There is a rapid flow path and a big platform for everyone to draw water. Be sure to get your equipment ready.
