Wuyishan's main activities break into three strands: the river, the peaks, and the tea. The bamboo-raft float down the Nine-Bend River is the signature experience; most visitors do it on the first morning. The summit hikes, especially Tianyou Peak and the Dahongpao Scenic Area, take a full day each. Tea tasting in the valley guesthouses is leisurely and genuine — the region produces some of China's finest oolongs and visiting a working tea farm is easy to arrange.
