Getting there & around
To get into the Mataian area, look for the signs (in Chinese at the time of writing) around the 251.7km mark. It’s not far from the turn off for the Hualien Sugar Factory.
If you want to go there by train from Hualien, get off at Guangfu Station. There’s about one train an hour (fast/slow NT100/77, 45 minutes/one hour). From the station walk to Hwy 9, turn right, then walk 1km south. Turn right at the sign for Mataian. Note that the whole area is a maze of unmarked country lanes so watch where you’re going and ask people for directions.
