Stroll the Taipingshan Trail in late autumn and visit the largest pure beech forest in Taiwan
A journey along the 3 to 4-hour "Taiwan Beech Forest Trail" brings weather changes within just half a day—from sunny skies to fog and light drizzle. While sunlight highlights the golden-yellow beech leaves, bringing out the beauty of autumn, the beech tree branches under thick fog are even more "dramatic" and captivating than the leaves themselves.
