Om
Snabba fakta: En del av de taiwanesiska röda cypressträden här har stått i över 2 000 år, äldre än Romarriket. Skogen ligger på 1 150 meters höjd, vilket innebär att temperaturen håller sig på svala 16 °C i snitt året runt.
Höjdpunkter: När dimman rullar in efter middagstid förvandlas bambulunden till ett skiftande galleri av ljus och skugga när solstrålarna tränger genom de höga stråna. Den 2 200 meter långa Sky Trail lyfter dig 22 meter över marken och låter dig gå i ögonhöjd med urgamla cypresskronor.
Insidertips
- Skip the main entrance queue by buying tickets online in advance during peak season.
- Wear layers and bring a light jacket; the forest stays noticeably cooler than the lowlands even in summer.
- The Sky Trail is best visited before 10:30 AM when mist still hangs in the canopy.
- Bring cash for the small food stalls near University Pond since card readers are unreliable there.
