Introducing Mingchih Forest Recreation Area

Show mapClose map

This reserve (Míngchí Sēnlín Yóuqì Qū; 03-989 4104; adult/child NT150/75) makes for a great base for exploration, or a retreat from the relentless heat of summer in the city. Mingchih lies between 1000m and 1700m and so even in July the average temperature is only 20°C. If you want to get out and see the sites, there are a couple of wild hot springs nearby and a stand of ancient trees, and the old trees at Baling are only an hour’s drive away, too.
