I was wanting do a short bushwhacking trip and found a promising looking back trail to PengJiShan 棚集山 on a map. My guess was that not many hikers would use that trail because the main trail up to PengJiShan is listed as #78 on the “Little BaiYue” 小百岳. After...
If you’re looking for a somewhat challenging day hike, but one that offers a trail the entire way, then XueYeGenShan 鱈葉根山 might be worth considering. I hiked to XueYeGenShan two weeks after hiking to BaiBinShan and ZhenLiShan Northeast Peak – 白賓山, 真笠山東北峰, which are located on the same ridge....
This was originally going to be a combo post of two hikes I did a couple weeks apart. But I realized halfway through writing this that it would be quite a long post; so now they get their own posts! The original plan had been to hike to BaiBinShan,...
CaoBuHouShan and BaShiMoShan are two peaks that were low on my list to hike in Taiwan. But with the high chance of rain forecasted for most everywhere down south that day, this area in Shihzih with a low chance of rain offered me the only chance to stay dry....
In the past three months I’ve hiked only once because of the rainy season. The rain finally calmed down a bit last week. I couldn’t wait any longer. I had to get out there to hike again! But I knew I needed to get a couple easier hikes under...
After stumbling upon the abandoned Paiwan village Vuri’ilj last week, I decided to look for another abandoned village to visit. My search led me to Kulalangau (sometimes written as Kulalangaw) in Chunri – 春日. It’s located very near BeiHuLuShan 北湖呂山. In fact, there are two alternate trail heads you...
I bought a new camera a couple weeks ago and have been anxious to try it out in the mountains. With the recent plum rains, only the mountains to the south of Kaohsiung looked to be a safe bet. WuLiYi Northeast Peak – 霧里乙山東北峰 (1026m) was low on my...
WenDingShan 文丁山 is a lower peak on the way up to NanDaWuShan 南大武山. I saw it when I was at the HuYaYuShan 戶亞宇山 peak last February and really wanted to hike it. I believe most people wouldn’t make a special trip to WenDingShan. There’s really nothing special about it....
I’ve been wanting to hike to JingBuShan 井步山 for quite some time. But, to be honest, I’ve put it off because I thought it would be too easy. Located in Wutai Township 霧台鄉, JingBuShan is a flat-topped peak that can easily be seen from as far as Kaohsiung city...
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...
