大坑3-1號步道 - Beitun District

Usually people who climb the mountain, if the car stops in the Zhongzheng camping area or in front of the Guo Shushu monkey garden, climb the top of the mountain from the hiking trail of the No. 4 trail (Changqing Suspension Bridge). To go down the mountain and return to the parking place to pick up the car, usually from the fourth trail, go to the top of the mountain (Kiosk) climbed the mountain, and then go back to the original parking place to pick up the car, this is the most common. If you don't want to go back, it's most convenient and short to choose one of the three trails on the third trail. However, the No. 1 Trail was not shown in the Taichung City Government Mountaineering Map. The most important thing is security considerations? One of the three trails has been a little damaged, and its maintenance is the enthusiasm of Shanyou volunteers to help, don't thank you here, you are selfless, and benefit many mountain friends to walk. Thank you! If there is a mountain friend who wants to go down from the No. 1 Trail, then follow the No. 5 trail along the head of the pavilion. Go to the left side of the 200 meters and you will see the signpost on the 3rd trail. Turn left and follow the No. 3 trail. A 800-meter left cut is the 3rd 1st trail. Whether it is the 3rd or the 3rd trail, it is steeper than the other 1st to 5th trails. The third one of the trails is about 15 meters long. It is the bottom of the river. (The water is not at the bottom of the stream.) Turn right and walk along the bottom of the river to meet a cement industry road. Turn right and go straight to the evergreen. Suspension bridge and industrial road to Zhongzheng camping area. This stream is a warning zone for earth and stone flow. Do not pass here when heavy rain comes, so as to avoid danger. 2018.08.19 The continuous heavy rain in the afternoon of these days caused the flooding of the No. 1 trail in Tai Hang San. This is a rare sight that has not happened several times a year.

At present, the No. 4 trail is under renovation before October. You can only get to Laoshan from this side. The distance is steep, but there are still many people walking.

The entrance of this trail is located at 0.6 K on the No. 3 Trail, which is a shortcut to the entrance of the No. 4 Trail. It was built by Shanyou. The first half of the slope is steep and the condition is simple and primitive. Be careful when passing. The second half is a dry river bed, which is much easier to walk. Mountain friends can go up the mountain from the No. 4 trail and go down the No. 3 trail. This shortcut can save a lot of time.

I heard that this trail was built by mountain friends. It seems that many people arranged to go on No. 4, then No. 5, and then go down the mountain with No. 3-1. The whole itinerary was a small circle. We included taking pictures and lunch time at that time. More than 4 hours! If you don’t take No. 3-1, you have to walk the whole journey of No. 3 directly, and there will be a short distance to go down the mountain before returning to the Zhongzheng camping parking lot, so it is most convenient to pick up No. 3-1 to get the car~ This wooden plank road is not official, so the repair project is different from the official one. It looks simpler and less solid, but it is quite reliable to walk carefully. Thank you Shanyou for your pains!
