👍👍 Must do for travellers. Such an amazing view on the Taiwanese mountains. So so pretty, go see for yourself you won't be disppointed. Note : quite hard for begginers but nothing impossible.

👍👍 I didn't hike here but just visited on my bike. I really enjoyed here although I only stayed for about 30 minutes. I was practically the only one there and the bike route I quite nice. There's a few places where you could sit down and relax as well.

👍👍 Took me an hour and half to get to the top. Slivergrass is booming. Not too many people but the grass is too tall for you take a good shot unless you got airdrome to work for you.

👍👍 展望無懈可擊，遠眺看風景的好地方，產業道路完善平整，開騎車上來方便。涼亭處能俯瞰汐止街區、基隆山、五分山、姜子寮山、大尖山連峰，以及北海岸景色。天氣好時真的是碧海藍天，令人心情舒暢。 這邊也是腳踏車、重機及汽車熱門兜風處，不遠則有雙溪溝古道南口及梅花山，因此登山健行客也不少。假日時有行動景觀咖啡、烤...
