Zhuilu Old Trail: the myth, the legend, the king of views in Taiwan. This place is a must see for all walks of life. If you’re an avid traveller or someone who just takes vacations stop waiting and book your ticket now! Stop reading this article and book now. Haha alright but after definitely look into it.

Let me break it down for you, you drive into the national park immersing yourself into this beautiful scenery rich with greenery and powerful mountains surrounding your every gaze. You drive along a road that if you want you can take all the way to the other side of the island, it is accompanied by a gorge that has a cool history of development. The Gorge formed 4 million years ago when the Philippine and EurAsian tectonic plates started colliding, there was a build up of limestone where these tectonic plates meet and because of the heat and pressure it transformed it into marble. So the gorge is just painted with it.

Whats nice about this trail is that they only allow a certain amount of people in a day so the trail isn’t over crowded. The hike is a total of 3.1 km, and 2700 metres above sea level. You start by hiking through vibrant greenery. Over the course of the hike you cross some overpasses. Eventually you reach the last 500 metres of the hike which is a narrow path measuring 90cm in width. On your right there is a wall of solid rock. To your left there is shear cliff giving you a view of the magnificence of the gorge and surrounding mountains. It truly is spectacular. I highly recommend doing this trail. Also if you enjoy meeting other hikers or would like to know more on the history of the park. You can book a tour with UniqueFun, its very reasonably priced, and they will pick you up from your location and provide a lunch. If you are interested click here and get to completing that bucket list.
