The Taipei City Department of Urban Development stated that in recent years, it has established a comprehensive trail system in the mountainous areas on the outskirts of Taipei City. Among them, "Datou Mountain" is ranked as Little Hundred Peaks No. 008, and its summit offers an excellent spot to enjoy a 360-degree view of Taipei City. The public is welcome to visit and explore on weekends. More importantly, combined with environmental education courses, it allows citizens to immerse themselves in a comfortable forest environment within just a 30-minute drive. Through hands-on experiences and activities, they can learn rich natural knowledge, providing an intellectual and fun weekend getaway.

"Little Forest Time" takes both children and adults to explore Datou Mountain, learning about the various roles forests have quietly played in human life since ancient times: from forest products that once supported Taiwan's economy, to the clean tap water that flows out every time you turn on the faucet, to the adorable little animals that appear on postcards, and even the invisible and intangible energy cycles in nature — all are inseparable from healthy forests.
