Hehuanshan Forest Recreation Area
When it comes to snow and high mountains, Hehuanshan is no doubt the prime choice of Taiwanese people; they also capture the unique image of Hehuanshan National Forest Recreation Area.
Hehuanshan National Forest Recreation Area is the very first national forest recreational area in Taiwan, established as early as 1963, thanks to its extraordinary scenery and alpine ecosystem. You can find a vast field of Yushan Cane up here, experience the chilling temperature 18 degrees Celsius lower than that on the plain, and access three renowned peaks out of the 100 Peaks of Taiwan: Hehuanshan Main Peak, Hehuanshan East Peak, as well as Shimenshan. You can stay in Song Syue Lodge to witness the marvelous starry sky at night. There are birds which can only be seen at high altitude: Alpine Accentor, Vinaceous Rosefinch, Taiwan Firecrest, and so forth, waiting for you to pay a visit!
The snowy scene is one huge feature of Hehuanshan, for such a winter snow scene is the most captivating dream-like picture for subtropical Taiwan. In May, the splendid ocean of Mori Rhododendron blossoms decorates the green mountain with reds and whites, as if it were snowing again. Hehuanshan National Forest Recreation Area is a place that demonstrates its brilliance during all four seasons, and takes your breath away.
