First hand experience of being attacked by a monkey because of the food we brought along. Intended to have a fee...

👍👍 Since we are leaving Wuling today and ending our three-day and two-night trip, we plan an easier tea garden trail in the morning.

👍 從北往南的火車，經過和仁站往崇德方向，可以隱約在山邊瞧見如象鼻子的隧道口。更早之前，都以為這個隧道口是【舊蘇花公路】的象鼻隧道，直到機車環島，當時的台九線行經和平隧道之後的不遠處，瞧見太魯閣國家公園之《和仁界碑》，才知從北迴鐵道的和仁站南望，山邊出現的象鼻子隧道口是【太魯閣國家公園和仁界碑】前的景象...

👍👍 登山口有4處，兩個靠近翠華路，另兩個在左營高鐵那側環湖步道，建議如果有帶小小孩走木棧道區域，比較輕鬆。觀景平台上去大部份都是碎石頭路，比較適合國小以上小朋友，小小孩建議走到涼亭就要衡量體力。有看過很多次帶小小孩的父母往上想到中央瞭望台，最後都是爸爸抱小朋友，媽媽自己也不是很好走，會走的很累。
