General information

Quite popular! Return via Lukuping (鹿堀坪) trail. A very dense but short trace: gets steep quick, has several deep pools and waterfalls, and one steep but easy climb. Can be linked with other hikes around Lukuping and Fushiping. I made a spreadsheet of the best river traces in northern Taiwan, check it out here: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/15QNhE9z3lhwz33C6V4P11dljPzWafFGKowzTi9Wrkjg
