Hikers should take note: the well-known “western section of the Nenggao Traverse national trail” has recently been closed due to unstable mountain weather and falling rocks in areas affected by past landslides. The situation is particularly severe around the 0.3K mark at the Tunyuan Trailhead. To ensure safety, the Nantou Forest District Office has announced the temporary closure of this trail.
The office stated that mountain weather has been highly unstable recently, with frequent showers. The trail is currently closed and under continuous monitoring. Hikers are reminded to check mountain weather conditions and the official website announcements before heading out. While in the mountains, do not linger near landslide-prone areas—pass through them as quickly as possible to ensure your safety.
