Xiangshan (Elephant Mountain) Trailhead

Trail marking on the railing

Highlight • Structure

Many, many elephants... But also many paths that only seem to lead upwards.

Six Giant Rocks (Elephant Mountain)

Highlight • Natural Monument

The path becomes steeper and winds through a stale gorge between huge stones. Certainly a worthwhile intermediate goal and motivation for the children. For adults, a nice wild spot on this rather well-maintained path.

Five Yuan Rock Viewpoint

Highlight • Viewpoint

You no longer encounter “mass tourism” here. But you also have to earn the view, there are actually a lot of steps leading up here. I recommend visiting the temples on the mountain on the way.

Thread of Sky Rock Crevice

Highlight • Gorge

The path leads you through a narrow crevice in the rock here. Don't worry, the section is short—it's still exciting.

Xiangshan Photography Platform (View of Taipei 101)

Highlight • Viewpoint

The whole mountain is a park, beautiful nature, well-kept paths, great views. The further up you go, the fewer people you meet.

View of Taipei 101 from the Xiangshan lookout

Highlight • Viewpoint

This is just the beginning of the hike, there are many, many steps and even more beautiful viewpoints awaiting you. And the number of people is also getting smaller and smaller, hold on.
