Trail Description

The highest mountain in Taiwan and all of Northeast Asia, climbed from the Tataka trailhead through cedar forest to the Paiyun Lodge and on to the rocky summit. The final ridge is exposed with fixed chains but the trail is well built and hugely popular. Sunrise from the top looks out over a sea of peaks and cloud.
