River:
萬里溪 / Wanli riverArea:
HualienRegion:
EastStart:
23.72487,121.36979This tributary is by Wanrong Hot Spring (NOT Molishaka), also called Yuanyanggu Hot Spring, and thus has a lot of outcrops popping out of the valley and creating special colorful walls, and a tiny hot spring pool can be found on the way. The distance of this river trace is short yet somehow challenging, which involves a few techniques such as boosti ... ng, climbing, swimming across pools, and a short rappelling on the way back. The gorge in the end has the vibes of Lisong Hot Spring, but there is not a hot spring pool. There are a 6 meters waterfall, which is difficult to trace up, and an emerald pool by a colorful wall. After the waterfall are 2 much taller waterfalls with one of them being 20 meters tall. This creek is advised to be visited only in dry seasons, when the main river, Wanli River, is much less likely to flood than in summer, when the rainy season is, and it takes several days for the water level to descend after each medium rain, not to mention frequent and violent afternoon downpours in summer. -
