Most people visit only the entrance area of this creek, where the famous gorge of Bidan is located. Bidan gorge, with its red brown stripes, looks like the small version of Hayou River. And the gate to Bidan gorge's hallway(not at the fork of the big creek, a bit farther) resembles to the one in Melberry Creek. Tracing in this section of the creek u

We traced all the way up to the final marked spot. Along the way, we passed two pools and their small waterfalls. The first pool was large and clean. We climbed along the edge of its small waterfall on the left side (facing downstream), which was not too difficult. The second pool, however, was more challenging. We climbed up on the left side (facing downstream) and set up a rope to descend onto the top of the waterfall. We left the rope there for our return.
Soon, we saw the first tall waterfall, about 50 meters high, with a gentle flow. The creek split there, and we took the left fork (facing upstream). The terrain grew steeper, and we did quite a bit of climbing—very different from the flatter section before. The final climb up to the waterfall was a bit tricky due to unstable rock plates (I cut my finger on silver grass while climbing down). Finally, we reached the last waterfall, which had a unique shape and a beautiful pool. Overall, the trace was enjoyable and not particularly difficult for experienced tracers.
