River Tracing North Taiwan

Trees, water and mountains are emerald green. Many pools in this river. I traced the right fork which has most fun. The mainstream is boring, thus not worthy going. There is a 2M slope in the middle (24.90268,121.77072) that you either need to booast up with your teammate or pull yourself up on the pipe to get over.

The GPS location is the famous Wulai Hot Spring. It has a lot of pools built by local people. However, it is said that a large proportion of local hot spring companies hate the natural hot spring so bad, thinking people would rather go to free natural one than theirs. They somehow manage to get the local authority to build up fences to block the ent ... ry to the hot spring. Each time the entrance is different. Sometimes it is a hole on a fence, sometimes it is a ladder. Keep an eye on and stalk local bathers for natural hot spring might be the key leading to the hot spring.

Easy trace located quite close to town. Perfect for someone just looking to get into river tracing. The ending GPS location will get you to an area with a big slide that is quite fun, and quite safe. The final pool is deep so make sure you know how to swim. Some people I know have taken dogs on this trace up until the waterslide so thats possible if ... you want to give it a go. You can take the left-hand fork away from the main pool you end up at and go slightly further up to find a small pool to relax in. It should be easy to recognize as it's shaped a bit like a very specific part of the male anatomy. You can either continue further up this stream, though it does get a harder quite and I wouldn't suggest it unless you more experienced (only went 20 mins up myself, though would like to go back with more time as it looks fun) or find a trail on your left-hand side if you're facing upstream you can use to walk back to where you started. If that all seems a bit confusing check the photos for a drawing

This is a very simple trace just south of the town in Wulai. The starting point is behind the blue pieces of sheet metal along the road, and there is a path behind them that leads to the the stream. It would be best for you to start here instead of by the elementary school because it is very easy to miss the exit. Depending on the water level, this ... trace can be categorized as easy to medium. Along the trace there are numerous pools to swim in.

This trace starts out very close the road. It quickly goes strait upwards. It is not a flat trace in any stretch of the way, but has some great waterfalls to climb over.
