A long way to go but definitely worth it. The whole trip is gorgeous and at the end, you are rewarded with a cliffside hot spring that looks down onto the river. Many people do this as a two-day trip and camp near the hot spring. Personally did it in a day but it's a good 10+ hour round trip so you'll need to start early. The starting GPS location ... will get on to a trail that you can take a scooter along almost right to the river. Follow upstream to the ending GPS location and look for the hot spring in the cliff. There are tails along the right side of the stream at certain points you can use to move a little faster if you want. It is also worth noting that there is a beehive at the back of the hot spring. They are honey bees though and shouldn't bother you if you don't bother them.

Not a beginning route. Swift water crossing is foreseeable. Beigang River Hot Spring No.1 is a concrete hot spring pool. Every 5 years there is a construction in progress deep in the river, thus a construction road where you can walk to the hot spring easily for 2-3 hours. The other years you need to trace your way there because the construction roa ... d no longer exists due to typhoon.
