Guanwu National Forest Recreation Area

Manyueyuan is flat and easy to walk, but it gets very crowded on holidays. The latter part of the trail near the waterfall has stairs, which can be a bit strenuous. We recommend starting your hike early, visiting the waterfall area first, and then taking the self-guided trail down the mountain for an easier descent!

Challenging expectations of a typical high-altitude mountain forest recreation area, this destination features a low-elevation tropical rainforest and giant karst cave style. The scenery is exceptionally unique, with the Hanging Banyan Valley, Thread of Sky, and Silver Dragon Cave all well worth a visit. However, the park is quite large; if you want to thoroughly explore the main loop, it will take about 2.5 to 3 hours. We recommend wearing comfortable sneakers and bringing plenty of water and insect repellent. Some sections, such as inside the caves, are quite damp, so please watch your step while walking. Overall, it is a well-maintained, high-quality attraction that combines both educational and tourism value!

Wow~ I really feel like you can't visit Alishan unless you take a tour package. I realized there are a lot more high mountains in Taiwan than I thought. There are even higher mountains, but Alishan was also truly fascinating and extremely, extremely high;; Just going up and down the mountain takes an hour, and combined with the travel time from Taichung... it really exhausted me; Even after getting to Fenqihu, I thought, "Okay, we're finally here," but absolutely not. If you get motion sickness, you really, really need to bring motion sickness medicine... Even though I don't usually get motion sickness, it was really tough for me; Strangely, the Chinese-speaking participants on the tour—whether they were Taiwanese(?) or Chinese(?), I'm not sure—were all full of energy and completely fine... The tour guide was Taiwanese, and since there were 4 participants each from Taiwan and South Korea, instead of English, they guided us in Taiwanese and used a translation app for Korean~ Although the trip was exhausting, the photos are so pretty that all those feelings completely vanish, so prepare your stamina well and make sure to visit Alishan, everyone~ It is incredibly magnificent!

Shuangliu nasjonalpark, med en fossesti på rundt 4 kilometer, har spektakulære fosser og er et flott sted å unnslippe sommervarmen og gå tur. På denne rundturen var Taitung ekstremt varmt, så vi stoppet innom dette stedet for et besøk, og det føltes veldig forfriskende og kan absolutt anbefales.

Et flott sted å kjøle seg ned. Ekornet 🐿️ er slett ikke redd for folk, og forbipasserende sier at de kan stjele mat. Opplevelse: Parken er faktisk ganske stor, og selv om billettprisen nok ikke er billig, kreves det kostnader for å vedlikeholde miljøet bærekraftig.

Denne turen til Dongyanshan var en flott opplevelse. Jeg kjøpte e-billetter på forhånd, og ved ankomst kunne jeg bare skanne QR-koden for å komme rett inn i parken, noe som var både praktisk og tidsbesparende! Så snart jeg kom inn i parken, ble jeg omgitt av høye japanske sedertrær. Luften var utrolig frisk og full av fytoncider, og det var veldig forfriskende å puste dypt. Det var overraskende få insekter her, noe som gjorde turen veldig behagelig. Imidlertid møtte jeg av og til bier som patruljerte i nærheten, men det var bare å rolig unngå dem. Det er viktig å merke seg at stiene og tretrappene kan bli veldig glatte når det regner. Jeg anbefaler på det sterkeste å bruke sklisikre sko og ta med en vandrestav, og gå forsiktig for å være trygg. Alt i alt anbefales dette stedet på det sterkeste; det er et flott sted i nord for å komme nær naturen!

Vis QR-koden ved bomstasjonen for skanning, det er veldig raskt og praktisk å bruke! I tillegg er parkering gratis, noe som gir utrolig god verdi for pengene. Stiene her har vakker utsikt og et rikt dyreliv, jeg likte det uventet godt.

Taiping-fjellet er utrolig vakkert og fredelig. Innvekslingen av billetter gikk knirkefritt, trengte bare å vise QR-kodene. Jeg kommer definitivt tilbake i nær fremtid.

We took the shortest trail to see the waterfall. A leisurely walk to and fro the trail will take approximately 45 minutes. Rest rooms mid way to the waterfall observation deck was also very clean. Unfortunately, the observation deck to the upper part of the waterfall was not accessible due to the fallen stones. There was even a scenic and forest bathing trail that may take a longer time.
