Rutebeskrivelse

NOTE: The route has been diverted since I first walked it. For an updated version, please refer to the information on my site: https://taiwantrailsandtales.com/2019/10/12/yonghe-ridge-loop/

Whilst Taipei’s northern and eastern hills tend to get most of the attention, this trail to the southwest of the city has plenty to offer the traveller who strays from the well-trodden trails of Yangmingshan Park. Indeed, as the locals know, Yonghe District has well-trodden paths of its own to explore. This route takes in ancient banyans, views to both the north and the south, all manner of trail types and enough temples to satisfy the very keenest of temple aficionados.

    Surprisingly great trial. I suggest to also add a visit to the Yuantong Temple, what is only a small detour passing also the one sky line cave and tunnel.
    Notice also that from October 2020 the trail into the Caidie Community had been closed for people who don’t live there. A new trail has been made to connect with Xingnan Road Section 3 to avoid that community. It’s marked with red ribbons.
    Also notice that this hike is in Zhonghe (not Yonghe).

    Very nice route with lots of butterflies and little lizards, squirrels, bird song. However there is a part going through a community with a sign that told me not to enter. As there was no way around, i continued and found a gate that was open. I was able to finish the route but not sure if i should have gone through there. The big temple around the end was so super pretty, really enjoyed that.
