神棹山桐花步道 - Miaoli County

The flowers are quite beautiful when the Tonghua Festival arrives, but it’s a pity that it rains

This trail is an unpopular trail. The climbing entrance starts from the No. 10 rescue pile on the left side of Shitou Bogong. The path along the way is very narrow and there are dense weeds on both sides. The path along the cloth strip is quite clear. The No. 6 rescue pile requires special care. The ropes along the road are small and there are no ropes in some sections. Pay attention to safety when going down the mountain. After reaching the No. 6 rescue pile, the road was smooth and easy to walk after reaching the ridgeline. There was no prospect on the way. After reaching No. 5 rescue pile, it began to climb all the way steeply, with a slope of more than 80 degrees. It is very slippery after a rainy day. Be sure to wear hiking shoes and trekking poles. When you reach the No. 4 rescue pile, you will reach the triangle point. There is a tung tree next to the triangle point. There is no outlook on the top of the mountain. The whole journey takes about 3 hours. There is an area in front of the mountain climbing entrance, which is full of tung tree flowers, which are very beautiful when they are in full bloom.

Why is this place called Tonghua Theater? In May, the pavement of tung flowers on the road was full, as if there was a tung flower drama.

You will see the entrance after about 20 minutes (?). Full of primitive mountain trails, almost all of them are dirt roads and tree trunks. Lots of drawstrings, gloves and non-slip shoes are recommended. From stake 8 to stake 7, it is easy to go the wrong way without seeing the indicator and be blocked by the tree. This section of the road is narrow and overgrown with weeds, so be careful. There is less outlook on the top of the mountain.

The parking space on the roadside is quite small, only about 4-5 cars, and there are few people in the secret area of ​​tung flower viewing The way up is not easy to get a car, but due to the small number of people So I was very lucky when I went up and down the mountain, and I didn't encounter the problem of meeting cars. On 4/23, some tung flowers have already fallen, but unfortunately I didn't see the scenery where the tung flowers covered the ground. It's the only fly in the ointment Because when I arrived early in the morning, there were no other tourists in the reserved venue, so I could take pictures calmly. When the wind blows, the fallen tung flowers are beautiful

Shenzhao Mountain Tonghua Trail is located in the Sanwan of Miaoli. The road up the mountain is slightly narrower and steeper. When you arrive at the Shenzhao Mountain Tonghua Trail, there are white tung flowers blooming all over the mountains and forests, and falling tung flowers are all over the place. The ground is like snow, the beautiful tung flower holy land, it is worth recommending.

Navigation up the mountain must be set to "Shenzhao Wonderland"~ Because the setting of the Shenzhao Tonghua Trail will lead to private land at the beginning, it is impossible to pass. The small slope of the road is not good for cars~ The tung flower trees here are very large, and they bloom beautifully~ The ground flowers on the trees are full of flowers~ It is recommended to come here in the morning, because the tung flowers in the morning will be more beautiful if they have not been picked and stepped on. If you have enough time, you can also take a walk inside the trail~

This is a place that makes people linger and forget to return. This time is the most beautiful and most beautiful one. I kept urging my partners to leave quickly. It turned out to be like the tung oil carpet that no one has stepped on. The tung tree flowers are blown by the wind, lying on their sides and standing upside down. All the good friends who saw them exclaimed that they were so beautiful. When a gust of wind blew, they slowly fell and some of the flowers would spin and dance. Go to the place where we enjoy the tung flowers according to my experience 1. Go up the mountain early 2. There are two roads to go from the Taisan line to the mountain, and the intersection indicates the fairyland 3. Good friends who do not have many parking spaces on the mountain try to ride together 4. There are several sections of the road up the mountain. The width of the car must pass as soon as possible. 5. The road up the mountain is somewhat steep, so be careful.
