Getu Valley
 
Description


Gétû Valley: To date 250 pitches have so far been opened. 

Getu itself is a small village bordering a national park about 4 to 5 hours outside of Guiyang, the largest city in the Guizhou Province of south central China. Guizhou is one of the last Chinese provinces to have its doors opened to the western world, with tourism to the Getu Valley‘s sweeping landscape not taking shape until the late 1980s. Today, the area serves up a multitude of limestone-themed activities in the form of stunning arches, massive caves, and dead-drop cliffs interwoven with lush green flora and rugged streams.

The Great Arch has been described as comprehensively extreme, unusual, and incredible--the kind of awe-inspiring natural wonder that makes its visitors contemplate their own existence, wonder if they have somehow stepped out of real life, and re-evaluate all previous assertions that they are not afraid of heights. It boasts climbs that are demanding and puzzling at times, but always rewardingly technical and breathtakingly beautiful. We hear the Great Arch alone has over a hundred pitches ranging from 5c to 9a. 



How To Arrive At Getu Valley:

•Arrive in China at an international airport.


•Continue to Guiyang, capital of Guizhou province, either by plane or train. Guiyang is a city of two million people with a national airport, a train station and a bus station.


•From Guiyang, you can take either a bus (the bus station is near the train station) or take a taxi directly to Getu (count on about 3 hours and a cost of around 1000 rmb). By bus, there is either a direct Guiyang - Ziyun (2 hours), or two buses (Guiyang – Anshun and Anshun – Ziyun, about 4 hrs). This takes five hours. From Ziyun, take the minibus that goes to Getu: about 45 minutes.


•Getu is a small village at the end of a road where you‘ll find a national park with a symbolic arch through which the sun‘s rays pass. Once you get to Ziyun you will find people who know of Getu.
