    Tips

    November 8, 2022

    Xuěshān Black Forest lies above the 369 Cabin. The path leads across alpine meadows into a dense fir forest at about 3,300 m. The Taiwan Fir (Abies kawakamii) is endemic to the island. It grows on steep northern slopes in the mountain ranges from 2,400 to 3,800 m in the central high mountains of Taiwan. At elevations above 3,000 m this species is the dominant tree and can form large stands.

    The fir grows in a temperate but humid climate. Annual rainfall in central Taiwan's high mountains exceeds 4,000 mm, with a maximum of up to 10,000 mm, making it one of the wettest mountain ranges in the world.
