Creek trekking and surfing are arguably two of the coolest and most stylish summer sports this year. For beginners, Laomei Creek on the Northern Coast and Shazhu Bay offer the most fun and accessible experiences. Arriving near kilometer 39 on Provincial Highway 2, right across from Zhongjiao Police Station, you’ll find Shazhu Bay, which boasts a beautiful bay, golden sands, and moderate waves—making it a favorite among surfers in recent years. Even if you don’t go in the water, sitting at a seaside café and gazing at the Candlestick Islets—one of Jinshan’s Eight Scenic Spots—is a delightfully relaxing experience. As for creek trekking hotspot Laomei Creek, its well-preserved primitive forest landscape lets you stroll along irrigation channels while playing in the water, leading all the way to Qingshan Waterfall, where you can admire a vertical white waterfall dropping over 50 meters and serene deep pools. Or head to Laomei Cold Spring to experience the cool sulfur spring filtered through calcium carbonate. After a full-body workout using hands and feet, listen to the babbling brook, then enjoy a simple bowl of noodles—pure satisfaction guaranteed.

For those wanting to continue enjoying cool spring water, Tienlai Hot Spring Resort features Northern Taiwan’s largest spring water park, spanning nearly 2,000 ping (approximately 6,560 square meters), with pure weakly acidic spring water at a pH level between 5–6, known for its cleansing properties. This summer, they’ve specially prepared an 18°C cold spring bath, using a heat exchange system to maintain ideal water temperature and quality. The Shiren Shang Summer Food-Tour-Stay-Travel package pairs with a wide range of dynamic experiences suitable for almost all ages—colorful hot springs, spa treatments, mountain spring pools, and creek trekking and surfing. Whether you go creek trekking, surfing, biking, or hiking, why not stay at Tienlai, treat yourself to green cuisine, and then quietly soak in the holistic healing experience of mountain fragrances and serenity surrounded by peaks.
