While exploring Google Earth I found what appeared to be an old road network that split off the Shaxi Forest Road (沙溪林道), which is located in Pingtung county, Taiwan. It appeared to be an old farmer road that possibly wound its way down the mountain, crossed a stream, then...
First and foremost, let me tell you that this route to WeiLiaoShan North Peak – 尾寮山北峰 is one that I created myself. You won’t find this hike anywhere else…probably. So take that as a warning. Having said that, it was a damn fun hike! And it had a little...
If you’re visiting Duona Village – 多納, Duona Suspension Bridge – 多納高吊橋, or just looking for a quick hike with great views, then head on up to DeDeShan – 德德山 in Maolin District – 茂林區. A quick hike like this isn’t my usual type of thing. I’ll sometimes bundle...
If you’re looking for an interesting day hike and don’t mind a bit of a drive, then give WoDanShan East Peak – 我丹山東峰 a try. By my guess it’s not particularly popular, but it holds some features that make it somewhat unique in my opinion. So let me tell...
“Three peaks to rule them all,” they said. No, they didn’t say that. I said it. Because this hike features three peaks, two of which aren’t terribly difficult to reach. One of them has a view that will make you not want to visit the other two. But you’ll...
BaCengBaMoShan 巴層巴墨山 is a somewhat popular peak with great views at the top and along the way up. I hiked it a couple years ago and I’d recommend it. While I don’t usually hike a peak twice, I made an exception for this one after finding a possible route...
I was wanting do a short bushwhacking trip and found a promising looking back trail to PengJiShan 棚集山 on a map. My guess was that not many hikers would use that trail because the main trail up to PengJiShan is listed as #78 on the “Little BaiYue” 小百岳. After...
This was originally going to be a combo post of two hikes I did a couple weeks apart. But I realized halfway through writing this that it would be quite a long post; so now they get their own posts! The original plan had been to hike to BaiBinShan,...
After last hike’s battle with what I thought were shin splints, I decided I needed some rest. But two weeks of rest was all I could take; I was itching to get back out in the mountains. I didn’t know for a fact that I had shin splints–they’re new...
