[2025 Taipei ] Travel Guide for Xiangshan (Elephant Mountain) Nature Trail (Updated Mar)

As a frequent visitor to Taipei, this time I chose some less popular spots to truly experience the local culture and customs of Taiwan. D1 Huabei Creative Park, Elephant Mountain D2 Baishishan Suspension Bridge, Bishanyan, Ximending D3 Houtong Cat Village, Pingxi, Shifen, Jingtong Sky Lantern, Jiufen D4 Sunset Platform, Songshan Cultural and Creative Park [Tips] Elephant Mountain⛰️: Located in Xinyi District, it's a great free spot to view Taipei's nightscape. The hike isn't too long, but remember to bring a bottle of water to stay hydrated. Houtong Cat Village: Perfect for cat lovers, you can see adorable cats everywhere 🐱. Before heading to Pingxi and Shifen for sky lanterns, set aside an hour or two to explore the village's handmade cat-themed shops. Jingtong: I arrived around 4 PM, and most of the shops were already closed. After chatting with a shop owner, I learned that the area has become less crowded since the pandemic, with most tourists heading to Shifen instead. As a result, Jingtong's shops close early. If you want a less crowded place to take beautiful sky lantern photos, I recommend Jingtong. Jiufen: The scenery is quite different during the day and night. At night, the red lanterns create a unique atmosphere. Wander through the alleys, enjoy various local delicacies, and explore different small shops. Sunset Platform: This is an immersive interactive experience themed around the end of life. The first stop was in Kaohsiung, and it recently moved to Songshan Cultural and Creative Park. To avoid spoilers, I won't say much here, but I highly recommend experiencing it. It will leave you with many thoughts and feelings 👍

Taipei: Yangmingshan/Beitou Hot Springs, wait until the cherry blossoms are in full bloom Taipei Citywalk, start a day of admiring cherry blossoms at Yangmingshan, experiencing Beitou Hot Springs, and checking in at Taipei 101. Yangmingshan is Taipei's backyard, and every year from February to March is the season of blooming flowers, with colorful azaleas and early cherry blossoms competing for beauty. By the end of February, the Yaezakura cherry blossoms are blooming competitively, and when the cherry blossoms are in full bloom, the misty clouds surround the green hills, and soaking in a sulfur hot spring is like a springtime encounter. 🌸 Flower Viewing Spots: Yangmingshan Flower Clock (Pic 2-7) Yangmingshan Fountain (Pic 1) Yangmingshan Second Parking Lot (Pic 9) 🚍 How to get there: Take the small 8 bus from the Jiantan MRT station, or take the 129/small 9 bus from the Beitou MRT station to reach the above flower viewing spots. 📝 Flower Viewing Tips: 1⃣ The Yangmingshan Flower Clock is planted along the stream with colorful azaleas, which bloom at the end of February together with the early cherry blossoms, creating a layered effect. 2⃣ The Yangmingshan Fountain is tightly surrounded by Yaezakura cherry blossoms, resembling light pink clouds, and the combination with the fountain is very photogenic. 3⃣ The cherry blossoms at the Second Parking Lot bloom earlier, and by the time of visit, it is nearing the end of the flower season. 4⃣ The bus schedule provided by Google Maps for the Yangmingshan area is not accurate; wait for the bus based on the electronic display. 5⃣ Yangmingshan also has other nice attractions such as Xiaoyoukeng and Qixing Mountain (my visit failed due to heavy fog at the mountain top). You can take the 108 bus (circular mountain bus) from the Yangmingshan bus terminal, but pay attention to the schedule as there are not many buses. ♨️ Beitou Hot Springs: Yangmingshan is an active volcano with abundant geothermal resources. The hot springs in the Beitou area are natural green sulfur springs, which are said to contain trace amounts of radium and have healing effects, one of only two in the world. In addition to hot spring hotels, you can also choose specialized hot spring shops. I chose the 'Emperor Pool Hot Spring Royal Meal Pavilion', which can be reached by the small 8/small 9 bus. The hot spring is located in the sulfur stream of Yangmingshan, surrounded by numerous spring eyes steaming with sulfur vapor. After soaking in the sulfur spring, the skin really becomes more delicate, worth a try. ⭕️ The private bathhouse requires at least two people (500 Taiwan dollars), with a 30-minute limit on holidays and 40 minutes on weekdays; the public pool is not time-limited (250), and the locker requires a 20 coin. ❗️ If you choose the mixed public pool, bring a swimsuit. ‼️ There is a restaurant inside, and if you spend more than 400 on a meal, you can soak in the public pool for free. 🗻 Sulfur Valley: After soaking in the hot springs, I checked in at Sulfur Valley (Pic 10-11), a 15-minute walk from the Emperor Pool Hot Springs. A large amount of sulfur vapor spews from the ground, accompanied by boiling and erupting spring water, making a hissing sound, a spectacular scene. 🏢 Taipei 101: After the tour, I checked in at several classic spots of Taipei 101. 1⃣ Takeuchi Izakaya (Pic 12-13), walk south for 10 minutes from Exit 2 of the Xiangshan MRT station to compress the towering skyscraper and old house into one picture, creating a beauty of old and new integration. 2⃣ Xiangshan (Pic 14-16), enter the mountain from the 'Xiangshan Trail' entrance on Google Maps, choose the right path at the first fork, and reach the photography platform in 15 minutes. But it is recommended to continue walking up for 10 minutes to the Six Giant Rocks viewing platform, where the view is more open. The mountain trail is all stone steps with handrails and street lights, making climbing effortless.

Among the many ways to admire the magnificent Taipei 101, viewing it from afar would be my personal favorite. It is popular amongst tourists, be it visiting in the morning or sunset, the trail is always packed with tourists and locals. We chose the shortest route up, which took about 20minutes, but boy the steps were steep! There are many viewpoints, but if you are feeling adventurous, you can climb up one of the huge rocks to watch the sun fall. There is an Arabica across the street from the entrance of the trail, perfect to cool down after the sweaty hike. How to get there: MRT Xiangshan (Red line) - follow the pedestrain and walk along the perimeter of Xiang Shan Park, then on the uphill turn right when you see a condo. Upon turning right, you’ll see a temple then continue walking in the alley. You will see the entrance on your left after a short walk. PS: bring along mosquito repellent as the mosquitoes there are relentless. Difficulty of trail: 2/5 View: 5/5 #Taipei #Taiwan #couplestrip #hike #Coffee #view #Xiangshan

Elephant mountain hiking trail. Taipei is a stunning metropolis and some of the best views of the sprawling city can be found up the Elephant mountain, a moderately steep hiking trail. The mountain takes it’s name from the shape of the mountain and has inspired lots of art and culture in the local area. It is very close to the Xiangshan metro stop and it’s on many bus routes, if you take an uber you can put in the Arabica coffee shop as your drop off point as that is at the bottom of the trail. There are toilets at the bottom of the trail that are free to use and there are plenty of places along the way to sit and take a breath, this is ideal as the trail is steep in parts and made up for big steps. The points at the top offer a stunning view of the city, especially at sunset and sunrise but get there early as the viewing points can get very busy with tourists and professional photographers. It’s an easy hike and can be done within an hour, it’s good to do it early morning to avoid the crowds and get a hike in before it gets too hot! #timetotravel #taiwan #taipei #trip #instatravel #hike #hiking #nature

#TravelTaiwan Beautiful sunset viewing point in Taiwan If you have the energy, motivation and determination, I must say you must not miss it. Xiangshan Mountain or Elephant Mountain, a small mountain on the eastern side of the suburbs of Taipei, with a rich forest, is another popular viewpoint of Taipei and the sunset, especially at the highest point of the mountain where many tourists come to take pictures of Taipei and the Taipei 101 building every day, especially photographers. The route to climb Xiangshan Mountain or Elephant Mountain is almost entirely stairs from the starting point to the top. Although the distance is not far, about 500-600 meters, it is almost the entire way up the stairs. If you ask if it is tiring, the answer is very tiring. But when you see the view in front of you, I can tell you that it will make you feel less tired immediately. I recommend that friends go up in the evening so that you can experience both atmospheres. #Sunset viewing point #Viewpoint

Xiangshan aka Elephant Mountain Taipei 101 is an iconic building in Taiwan, and in my opinion, the best place to view it will be at Elephant Moutain.Great view of Taipei City as well. This hiking trail is just a few minutes away from the MRT station, so it is quite accessible. The hike itself is just lots and lots of rock stairs, so just take your time and pace yourself. There are places to stop and rest along the way up What people like to when they reach the viewpoint - climb up the giant rock! Do be careful and stay safe! #mytripvlog

Highlights - The view is very beautiful. Anyone who comes to Taiwan must come here. Average price per person - Free admission Score -10/10 #TravelAbroad #Taiwan #BeautifulPhotoSpots #SunsetViewpoints

Xiangshan Elephant Mountain, Taiwan is a beautiful viewpoint for watching the sunrise and sunset. 🚆 MRT Xiangshan Station, Red Line, Exit 2 Traveling by train, Taiwan has trains everywhere, very convenient and cheap. 🥾⛰️Walking through the park, you will find the entrance.

Xiangshan Elephant Mountain (象山) is another place you can't miss because it's a very beautiful viewpoint of Taipei 101. There are stairs to the top of the mountain. I feel like it's quite steep. If you go during the summer and rainy seasons, it might be a bit hot. I recommend bringing drinking water to quench your thirst. It takes about 20-30 minutes (depending on each person's strength) to reach the top of the mountain. How to get there: MRT Xiangshan Station, red line, exit Exit 2, walk along the park to the end, turn left and walk up the hill a bit. Then turn right and walk straight until you see the sign for the starting point. #TravelTaiwan

I really miss Taipei. Right now, I'm still waiting for Taiwan to open up to tourists, so I'm sharing some photos from my last trip in 2019. It was a trip I went with two friends, so we invited each other to go on a light hike for about thirty minutes to the viewpoint. We were a little tired, but when we saw the view, we felt no more tired. The view was nice, the wind was quite cool, and there were a lot of people waiting to take pictures. Waiting for the day we could travel to Taiwan again. #waitingforthedaytodepart #Taiwan #Taipei

What a lovely place~🐘 When you are lucky~ you can see Taipei 101 when the air is good #Xinyi District #Good Places for Summer #Local Tours #Good Places for Parents and Children #Good Places for Suburbs #Elephant Mountain Trail

The Elephant Mountain Trail is suitable for beginners. It takes about 20 minutes to complete. The view from the mountain is breathtaking, overlooking the entire Taipei city. You will find that you live in this beautiful city. The scenery is great and you can take pictures like postcards. After going down the mountain, there is a jade shop where you can cool down and have some snacks to fill your stomach. Xiangshan is located in Xinyi District. If you still have energy after climbing, you can go for a walk around Taipei 101 or have a meal at the food street. A great holiday outing for the whole family^_^ #Where to go in summer

“Life is either a daring adventure or nothing at all.” #hiking #travel #taipei #taiwan #elephantmountaintrail #hikingislife #nature #dayhike #easyhike #taipei101

Elephant Mountain. Take the MRT Red Line to Xiangshan Station. Take Exit 2 and you will see signs for the direction to the hiking trail outside. Use Google Maps or ask the locals for directions where the entrance is. I forgot the number of steps to rock point, i lost track because i was sweating too much, bringing a heavy jacket with me. The last count I could remember was 600+ and we were not even there yet. 😂 We did not get a chance to take photos on top of the rocks because I’m I was gonna blown up bu the wind. I guess the best time would be early in the morning or late at night. #happynewyear

#GlobalTravel Today I challenged Taipei's famous Elephant Mountain Trail! This is the best location for photographing Taipei 101 and is also the filming location for many movies. Although you have to climb a lot of stairs, the scenery is definitely worth it🥹 Tips for climbing: - It takes about 40-60 minutes to climb the mountain - Although there are many stairs, they are all easy to walk on, and the handrails are complete - It is recommended to wear sports shoes! - Bring a bottle of water, although it is not long, you will sweat Route introduction: The starting point is near the MRT Xiangshan Station. At the beginning, you can see a snack bar and the Internet-famous coffee shop % Arabica next to it. You can buy a cup of coffee to refresh yourself before climbing the mountain! There are stairs all along the way, but each rest platform has railings where you can rest and enjoy the gradually rising view of Taipei City. When you reach the Liujushi Observation Deck, Taipei 101 is right in front of you, which is definitely the best spot for taking photos 📸 Don’t rush down the mountain after climbing. There is a shop selling aiyu at the foot of the mountain. Drinking a bowl of cold aiyu after climbing the mountain is really super refreshing and thirst-quenching! 😍

Aunt Aom complained... Taipei 101 Night viewpoint at Xiangshan Elephant Mt. is very beautiful. The sky is very clear even though there is a little rain. Take the MRT red line Tamsui-Xinyi Line (R) and get off at Xiangshan Station. Turn right and walk along the path with signs. Turn right and pass the temple. Go up the temple stairs or the ramp on the side of the temple. Please prepare your body and mind. It is very tiring. The stairs are steep. There are lights all the way. At 10 pm, I went down but there were still people walking up (there is a ramp but it is farther). I brought Nong Noey's notebook @butterbear to encourage me to climb up. I brought smelling salts, drinking water, and candy to recharge my energy along the way. I went up to 2 points and it took me 1 hour and 40 minutes to go back and forth including taking pictures. The way up also took 1 hour (10:30 pm - 10 pm). #Get a discount without relying on luck #TravelTaiwan #taipeitravel #taipei101 #xiangshanhiking #butterbear

#celebrateit Xiangshan in Taipei is a natural place where you can enjoy the scenery day and night. A spot visited not only by tourists but also by locals for the purpose of Taipei's best romantic night view. Although it is about 200 metres above sea level, it is known as a view spot with a panoramic view of Taipei city. It is also famous as a great photo spot where you can see Taipei 101, Taiwan's symbolic tower, from the best position. It takes about 30 to 40 minutes to climb slowly. Another reason for its popularity is that it is easily accessible from Taipei city and easy to incorporate into tourism. Although the road to the top is well maintained and easy to walk, you may not be able to see your feet well at night, so be careful. The view of Taipei from Elephant Mountain is worth a visit.

Took us about an hour trek to the peak (mainly because I’m not very active and would need to rest every 5mins) but the view is definitely worth it! The skyline of Taipei looks so mesmerising.

#newyearnewtrip The Elephant Mountain viewpoint in Taipei is one of the best spots for panoramic views of the city, especially of Taipei 101. The viewpoint is accessible via a short, well-maintained hike up the mountain, which takes about 20-30 minutes depending on your pace. The trail is relatively easy, though there are some steep sections with stairs. Once at the top, you’ll get a fantastic bird’s-eye view of Taipei, with Taipei 101 towering in the distance, as well as the sprawling city and the surrounding mountains. The viewpoint is particularly popular at sunset and in the evening when the city lights begin to glow. It’s also a favorite photography spot, so you’ll often see people taking pictures or just enjoying the view. If you plan to go, it’s best to arrive a bit early, especially in the evening, as it can get crowded, but the experience is definitely worth it. If you’re into hiking or just want a great view, it’s definitely a must-see in Taipei. #nature #mountain

#taipei #象山 is a tiring but relatively easy climb for beginners, with proper steps all the way to the top. The climb is connected to several other peaks but I stopped at the top of xiangshan. The weather wasn't so good when I climbed thus the view was quite blurry. If you manage to go in good weather, the view will be great! Can have a good view of Taipei city with taipei 101 in the distance.

Elephant Mountain (象山 or Xiangshan) is a mountain in eastern Taipei City. The relatively short trail up the 184-meter mountain provides unbeatable city views, making it Taipei’s most famous hike and one of Taiwan’s most well-known attractions #travel #taiwan #couplestrip
