Activity Description:
Activity Description:
  • ​Join us for a captivating hike along the Xilaan Trail and Dekalun Trail, lesser-known paths within Taroko National Park that offers a glimpse into Taiwan's rich indigenous history. Once a vital route for local tribes, this trail remains largely untouched, allowing hikers to experience its original state and historical remnants.
  • As we traverse the trail, you'll encounter a hilltop terrace that was home to over thirty families more than three decades ago. Although now abandoned, the area provides panoramic views of the Pacific Coast, the iconic Eternal Spring Changchun Shrine, and the Ning’an Bridge. The trail's rich biodiversity means you'll be serenaded by the melodies of native birds and insects as you walk.
  • One of the trail's unique features is a mysterious natural vent, offering a cool mountain breeze—a perfect spot to rest and rejuvenate. Our knowledgeable guides will share insights into the trail's historical significance and the surrounding ecosystem, ensuring a memorable and educational experience for hikers of all ages.
