Hiking
General information
Hiking may be broadly grouped into three categories:
Day hiking involves distances of less than a mile up to longer distances that can be covered in a single day. For a day hike along an easy trail little preparations are needed, and any moderately fit person can enjoy them. Families with small children may need more preparations, but a day outdoors is easily possible even with babies and pre-school children.
Long distance walking is multi-day hikes in non-wilderness areas or with significant service, such as trails, lodges and restaurants, possibly with transport for luggage. Long distance walking is a tradition very much alive in Europe. There are many trails through the countryside, often leading from one village to the next, and also to towns on the way. Often they follow routes used before roads were built. These and similar trails can be and are used also for day hikes. See Long distance walking in Europe, Grande Randonnée, Walking in the United Kingdom, Rheinsteig, Rheinburgenweg and Pieterpad.
Wilderness backpacking involves a multi-day hiking expedition where participants carry the required supplies for overnight stay and two or more days of survival in the wilderness, and camp en route.

Feature itineraries

Caoling Historic Trail – Private Day Tour
The Caoling Historic Trail follows a route first cut through the mountains of northeast Taiwan during the Qing Dynasty, connecting the settlements of New Taipei and Yilan across a ridge that separates the island's interior from its rugged eastern coast. This private day tour begins at Yuanwangkeng Riverside Park, where the trail head sits beside a clean-running stream, and moves eastward through dense secondary forest before opening onto exposed grasslands above the sea. The path gains elevation gradually, making it appropriate for guests who walk regularly but do not require technical hiking experience. A licensed, bilingual guide accompanies the group throughout, providing historical context at key points along the route and adjusting pace to suit the party. Lunch is taken at a carefully chosen vantage point above the Yilan coastline, where the ocean and the outline of Turtle Island are visible on clear days. Groups with time and energy may extend the walk onto the Taoyuan Valley Trail, a side route that broadens the coastal panorama considerably. The tour concludes at Dali Visitor Center, where a local temple and food vendors offer a quiet close to the day before the return transfer to Taipei.

Daxueshan National Forest – Private Day Tour
Daxueshan National Forest sits at over 2,000 metres in the mountains of central Taiwan, roughly two hours from Taichung. Because the reserve has no public transit connection and the Xiaoxueshan National Trail is logistically demanding as a thru-hike, the route is seldom completed in a single, linear direction. This itinerary resolves that problem through a private drop-off at the upper trailhead and a vehicle waiting at the Daxueshan Visitor Centre on completion. The trail covers approximately 15 kilometres through well-maintained, clearly signed forest terrain and takes between five and six hours to walk at a measured pace. The elevation and distance make a reasonable level of physical fitness advisable, though the route is accessible to hikers without technical experience. Daxueshan is one of Taiwan's most respected destinations for forest birds, and the trail passes through habitat where deer, wild boar, and various butterfly species are regularly observed. The tour includes return transport from Taichung High Speed Rail Station, travel insurance, and the option of a bilingual guide.

Guanwu National Forest – Private Day Journey
Guanwu sits at roughly 2,000 metres in the northern reaches of Shei-Pa National Park, a protected landscape of cypress groves, layered temperate forest, and mountain ridgelines that receive few visitors by Taiwanese standards. A private vehicle collects guests from Taipei in the early morning, arriving at the Guanwu Visitor Center in time for a full day on the trail network. Six maintained routes cover a combined distance of more than ten kilometres, ranging from a quiet 450-metre walk through hemlock and fir to a looped ascent of Zhenshan with 290 metres of elevation gain and an open summit platform. The Kuaishan Big Trees Trail leads through a grove of ancient Hinoki cypress, some estimated at 2,500 years of age. Adjacent to the visitor center, a small ecological center documents the Guanwu Mountain Salamander, a critically endangered amphibian discovered here in 1996 and found nowhere else in this concentration. Two modest cafes operate through the afternoon. The return to Taipei is by private vehicle, arriving by early evening.

Tonghou Traversing Trail – Private Day Hike
The Tonghou Traversing Trail connects two distinct landscapes in a single day's walk. Beginning at the western terminus in Wulai District, the route follows the Tonghou River upstream for roughly six kilometres through dense subtropical forest on compact soil paths, before climbing a short ridge cloaked in silver grass and descending to the Lanyang Plains of Yilan County. The trail ends with a view across open farmland toward the Pacific, with Turtle Island visible on clear days. Private transportation with access permits for the restricted forest road delivers guests to the trailhead and collects them at the eastern exit. The full crossing covers nine kilometres and suits hikers who are steady on uneven ground. No technical experience is required. Several stream crossings add a quiet sense of occasion to the middle section of the route.

Pingxi Historic Trail – Private Day Hike
The Pingxi Historic Trail covers ten kilometres of varied terrain, moving steadily eastward from the inland campgrounds at Wushan to the coastal settlement of Wai'ao. The route passes through dense subtropical forest, crosses a succession of small streams, and gains enough elevation at its central ridge to offer unobstructed views over the northeast coastline. On clear days, Turtle Island sits on the horizon beyond the open Pacific. The final kilometres descend to a working beach town where guests may swim, rest, or eat before the private vehicle returns them to Taipei. A licensed, bilingual guide accompanies the group throughout. The hike is appropriate for intermediate walkers and for families whose children are comfortable covering ten kilometers on foot.

Wuling Sixiu Adventure Hike – 3-Days / 2-Nights (Guided)
The Wuling Sixiu route links four distinct summits along a shared ridgeline deep inside Shei-Pa National Park, each peak presenting its own character of terrain, flora, and exposure. The circuit begins and ends at Wuling Farm, where the Tachia River harbors one of Taiwan's last populations of endemic landlocked salmon. Over three days, the route moves through shaded pine forest, open arrow bamboo fields, and exposed ridgeline trail, with two nights spent at staffed mountain lodges. Fixed-rope sections on the approach to Mt. Pintian require genuine upper-body strength and composure on steep rock. The logistics of this route are considerable: national park permits, lodge reservations, private transportation from Taipei, equipment checks, and meals at both cabins are arranged in full before departure. Guests carry personal clothing and gear; everything else is in place on arrival. The route is equally rewarding in autumn, when maples along the lower forest road turn, and in spring, when cherry blossom marks the start of the climb.
