The name “Raft River” originated because in the early days the scenery along the river was beautiful. People often fished by the riverbank and used bamboo rafts as a means of transportation on the water, so the place came to be called Raft River.
Along the bike path, a variety of resident and migratory birds, as well as numerous freshwater fish, can be observed. With careful observation, one can also find aquatic insects and a diverse range of amphibians that inhabit Raft River, allowing the public to get close to the river’s valuable natural resources. While enjoying a comfortable cycling experience, riders are encouraged to appreciate the importance of the ecological environment.
