关于
快速信息: Some of the Taiwanese red cypress trees here have stood for over 2,000 years, predating the Roman Empire. The forest sits at 1,150 meters elevation, which means temperatures stay a cool 16°C on average year-round.
亮点: When fog rolls in after noon, the bamboo grove transforms into a shifting gallery of light and shadow as sunbeams pierce through the tall stalks. The 2,200-meter-long Sky Trail lifts you 22 meters above ground, letting you walk at eye level with ancient cypress canopies.
内部小贴士
- 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.
