Central Taiwan

Bike or Hike to Baguashan from Sun Moon Farm

baguashan taiwan

This easy 16km round-trip walk follows a quiet country road just outside Taichung City. This hike to Baguashan is a great alternative to the trails in Dakeng! It takes about the same amount of time to get there from downtown Taichung and it’s surely not as crowded. The Hike to Baguashan – In Brief… The trail starts […]

Hike Eagle Mountain in Taiwan

Eagle Mountain (2180m) is one of the most exhilarating hikes / climbs I’ve done in Taiwan. The views from the top are stunning, the vegetation is varied, and the trail is always well-maintained. It is without a doubt the nicest day-hike in Taichung’s vicinity. Eagle Mountain is located in the central part of Taiwan, in […]

Hehuan West Peak, 3145m

The west peak is the most strenous day-hike in Hehuanshan Forest Recreation Area! But as my two good friends and I were looking at the trail topo over a feast of icy chicken at a restaurant in Wushe, we simply had no idea how vicious of a climb it was going to be. I can […]

Dayuling, Central Taiwan

dayuling taiwan

You’ve probably never heard of Dayuling, and that’s totally normal. In fact, not many people have ever heard of this tiny “village” located in the middle of Taiwan’s mighty Central Mountain Range. As a matter of fact, Dayuling doesn’t have much to offer to the ordinary tourist – it’s got no special attractions like temples, […]

Hiking Mt. Cilai (Qilai Shan)

The Cilai Mountain area offers some of the most challenging and enjoyable hiking in Taiwan. Mt. Qilai (also spelled Cilai) is located in Eastern Taiwan’s Taroko National Park. On this page, I’ll do my best to show you how to get there, what to expect during your climb and how you can prepare for it. Let’s […]

Changhua City Travel Guide, Taiwan

great buddha at baguashan

Home of the greatest Buddha Statue on the island! Changhua should only be on your list if you have extra time to spare during your trip in Taiwan, or if you really want to check out the tall Buddha statue on Baguashan. Why? Because the city doesn’t enjoy such a vast choice of attractions like Tainan or Lugang. Still, there are […]
