Nenggao (Neng-gao/Nengkao) Cross-island Trail Getting there & around

Getting there & away

It’s best to do this hike with your own vehicle or with arrangements for someone to drop you off and pick you up (either at the Tunyuan trailhead or over on the Hualien County side). To get to the Tunyuan trailhead drive along Hwy 14 to the 94km mark. You’ll see a sign in English directing you to turn right to the trail. Follow the road to the end and park. The trail begins here.

Past Wushe, Hwy 14 splits into Hwy 14, which heads north, and Hwy 14, which heads east to the trail. Note also that a side road later splits off Hwy 14 east to Lushan Hot Springs, a grubby, overdeveloped hot-spring resort.
