20200509 People who are curious about this place must have a cognition. This is one of the mountaineering entrances to Shiniu Mountain. The so-called mountaineering entrance is basically not as easy as the suspension bridge in Neiwan. The narrow and muddy roads are naturally necessary, so unless you are an old driver who is not afraid of hardship or a mountain climber, it is not recommended to come here. The reason why I want to visit this suspension bridge is because it is really like many rural areas in Japan. The simple structure of the suspension bridge, such as the Oigawa suspension bridge of Oigawa Railway. Follow the navigation instructions to move down the industrial road, and it began to become wet and muddy along the way, even if there was not much rain in these days. Finally, you will come to a vast earth and rock like a parking lot, and this is the last place that your transportation can help you, and then you will go on your own. So if you ride a motorcycle, you should pay attention, don't go too deep on rainy days, otherwise the muddy ground will pose a greater threat to the safety of the locomotive relative to the car. There should be more than one route to the suspension bridge, but I chose a path down the parking lot, because at least there are signs for the suspension bridge and Shiniu Mountain. Then take a damp valley path to the suspension bridge in about five minutes. Another feature of this suspension bridge is that it is more shaky than ordinary suspension bridges. I walked alone today and I could not shake it, which is quite a fun experience.

The suspension bridge was dismantled in January 2022/01 ~ no more reconstruction!

Crossing one of the streams at the source of Shimen Reservoir, it is an important bridge connecting Shimen Mountain with Fairy Island and Shiniu Mountain Trail. It is a bridge used by Taipower to repair power towers. The bridge body is a suspension bridge. One person is allowed to pass, and it is recommended that only three people pass at a time. However, the suspension bridge has been in disrepair for a long time, and there are no-passing notices on both sides. There is a path around the suspension bridge to look towards the top of the Shimen Reservoir. From the catchment area, the top of the dam is a rare sight of the Shimen Reservoir. In the dry season, you can even walk down to the Shimen Reservoir. If you want to get here, you must drive through a section of industrial road and then walk a section of mountain road. The section must be primitive. If it is rainy or muddy, it is recommended to visit again in good weather.
