Where to go on the weekend | Xiangshan Mountain climbing and picnic fun

In order to train for the peak in July, I started climbing again🤣 Every time it was painful to climb up the mountain, but I was happy to go down the mountain, and I could have a picnic with a wide view. Seeing everyone happily sharing food with strangers or foreigners, I felt that Taiwan was still so humane🥰 ⛰️If you live in the city and want to find a relatively easy and challenging stretching exercise on the weekend, walk up the slope from Exit 2 of Xiangshan Station and you will see the trailhead immediately! ⛰️It's a complete slope at the beginning. Just do your best according to your strength. Although you are out of breath, don't rest too much. You can reach the top of the 184m Elephant Mountain in half an hour. Many foreigners are having a picnic there and looking at the Taipei 101 building, so chill💕 ⛰️But of course I didn't let myself go so easily. Elephant Mountain is connected to the "Four Beasts Mountain" at the end of Songde Road that I used to climb. If you want to torture yourself a little more, you can refuel and walk another 6-7 kilometers. There is a slope that is really challenging😱Because you have to walk an extra 1-2 hours, use it with caution! 💯 Go down the mountain and find an ice shop to end this sweaty experience! Refreshing👍
