Get Close to Mt. Maozi


MT. MAOZI TRAIL
帽子山步道

Mt. Maozi is the highest in Shuangliou and rises 700 m above the sea level. It is a steep uphill track and at the end of the trail we can see beautiful breathtaking views over the surrounding mountains and the Pacific Ocean and the Taiwan Strait.  During the way to the peak of mountain we can see a lot of insects and tropical plants. Between late September and early October, the migration of Grey-faced Buyyard Eages and Chinese Goshawk offers an impressive sight.
帽子山是雙流的最高峰,海拔約700公尺,沿途大多為上坡路段且較陡峭,山頂視野遼闊,可環視周邊群山、眺望太平洋及台灣海峽。在每年九月底十月初的早晨,天氣狀況良好可看見大批的灰面鷲、赤腹鷹過境,場面十分壯觀。

BANYAN TRAIL
白榕步道
The Banyan Trail is the most amazing trail in the Shuangliou, because during the trail the people can feel to be like tarzan in the jungle. The Banyan Trail passes throught tropical monsun rain forests dominated by Ficus trees. Large Ficus trees with pillar-like prop rous and plank buttress rous can be easily spotted. You can also find tumble-down walls of a Paiwan tribe in the wild grass in the middle of the trail.
白榕步道沿途穿越濃密的熱帶季風雨林,以桑科榕屬的植物最具特色。步道上常可見到長滿支柱根、板根的大樹,就是桑科榕屬植物的傑作。此外,步道中段的草堆中,還可發現傾倒的排灣族矮牆遺址。
