It's once again the season when the miscanthus flowers on Yangmingshan are in full bloom. Every year at this time, Yangmingshan National Park hosts the “Ancient Trail Autumn Miscanthus” event. Led by guides, visitors explore the YuLu Ancient Trail, immersing themselves in the scenery of autumn miscanthus blossoms and the culture to discover the charming allure of Grass Mountain.

This year’s Ancient Trail Autumn Miscanthus Tour begins at the Shanghuangxi Parking Lot. On the uphill section, besides experiencing the toil of ancient fishermen transporting fish overnight, visitors can also see a wealth of cultural relics along the way, including pottery pipes used for transporting white clay ore, Xu Yan Bridge, and fields by the main road. Moreover, this ancient trail is not only rich in historical and cultural significance, but also diverse in geology and plant ecology. With detailed explanations from guides, as you walk along the Jinkouli Grand Road—also known as the YuLu Ancient Trail—you’ll discover a different kind of beauty on Yangmingshan amid the dancing miscanthus blossoms of autumn.
