For quite some time I’ve had this trail on my to-do list. But because of certain logistical issues, I’ve made it a low priority. That all changed after a message from a friend about a trip he was organizing. The JinShuiYing Historic Trail is very well known and documented...
A couple weeks back I hiked BaCengBaMoShan 巴層巴墨山 and really enjoyed the area, especially the watermelon river. While researching that hike I learned of WaiMaLiBaShan 外麻里巴山. It didn’t look particularly interesting, but I thought it would give me the chance to go back and see the watermelons before they were gone.
LiLongShan is a peak I saw when I visited BaCengBaMoShan 巴層巴墨山 the week prior. I knew nothing about it, but I had to climb it. As it turns out, it was a relatively easy hike AND it is also one of the XiaoBaiYue (小百岳) according to this list. I recommend...
BaCengBaMoShan 巴層巴墨山 is an unassuming little peak in south Taiwan that hides a big secret during the dry season.
After a failed attempt that resulted in me being violently pulled down by a snare, motorcycle on top of me for about 40 minutes, I felt it was time to head back to HuYaYuShan 戶亞宇山 for one more try. HuYaYuShan is located in Laiyi 來義 between Jiaxing and Neishe (佳興...
At the top of a massive landslide you’ll find DaWuCang 大武藏山. It’s not a particularly popular peak by any means; there isn’t even a marker for it. Most people just pass it on their way to other prominent peaks. But last week I made it my main objective. DaWuCang...
XinZhiShan 新置山 is a small mountain that sits directly behind Laiyi 來義 village in Pingtung. I’ve driven by it countless times and have always wanted to hike to its modest 619 meter peak. The end of last January, I decided to give it a try. In my mind, XinZhiShan...
Deep within the mountains on the Baolai riverbed you’ll find two popular hot springs, Qikeng and Shikeng (七坑 & 十坑). Situated roughly between the hot springs is the mountain HsiaoTienYuan – 小田原. At 1335 meters, I thought I would have plenty of time to make it to the top...
BeiHuLuShan is a nice hike for anyone looking to do something that isn’t too easy but not too hard. There are ropes, ribbon markers, and a trail that is easy to follow. Located in Chunri Township 春日鄉 in Pingtung 屏東, BeiHuLuShan is the north peak of the mountain I hiked...
A couple weeks ago I decided to try hiking to NanHuLuShan 南湖呂山 again after a failed attempt several months back. I was prepared for a tough hike of hacking and slashing, but as it turns out it was the exact opposite. With me I brought two machetes–one for the...
