Ma Lun mountain hiking trail

10:10 Boarding from the camping area 10:30 Arrive at the trailhead 14:00 Arrive at Triangle Point 14:30 downhill 17:00 Return to the trailhead 17:20 Get on the bus The round-trip time of the foot journey (excluding the cement road and heel rest time in the camping area) is about 6 hours. The whole journey is roughly in the shape of a "zigzag", and there are three pavilions along the way (the height-distance map is very detailed) Only the last 0.5km has been steep and it is really a test of willpower Lin Xiang is very beautiful after 4K, and there are also ruins of the Japanese occupation era. At present, it should be the first perfect route in my mind at Qixiongli in Guguan. The disadvantage is that the triangle point has no prospect.

｜Mallon Mountain｜ This is the second time I have visited. I didn’t try my best to climb the mountain today. Instead, I spent some time taking pictures. Malun Mountain claims to have a five-star trail because a lot of pine trees are planted in the Skobar plateau where Malun Mountain is located. Five-leaf pine, five-leaf pine, Taiwan's two-leaf pine, cypress, and cypress, so the trail is covered with dried needles, so walking is like walking on a carpet, and the conifers are towering, so the forest is particularly beautiful.

The Malun Mountain Trail is about 7 kilometers long, with a height drop of about 1095 meters. Qixiong in Guguan is a very slow trail, and its forest phase changes greatly, from two-leaf pine to mixed forest, full of phytoncine forest bathing, so it is called a 5-star trail. There are two trail entrances. The main route trail entrance 1 kicks the 1K cement road from the Sparco tribe through the camping area, and goes up to the mountain entrance to start the 7K trail, passing through the mother of the five-leaf pine and the viewing platform. The branch line Xinshan Line is cut from the fork in Taipower Alley. It enters the trail after passing through the orchard, passing through the group of eight heroic pine trees, the tree-lined trail full of fallen leaves, and the common steep slopes of Qixiong in Guguan. After walking, it returns to the main line of the trail. The main route has an upward slope all the way, but there are few changes. This time we finish with a small O-ring. For most people, the 5-star trail refers to the beautiful forest scenery of the Malun Mountain Trail, from all kinds of ferns, mushrooms, flowering plants, and coniferous forests. It is beautiful whether there is sun or rain and fog. Most of the trails have pine needles and fallen leaves. Although there are not many outlooks, the gentle slopes are easy to walk. However, when walking the Eight Heroes, you should pay attention to the steep slopes of stones, and the main route should also be carefully packed. There is green shade throughout the whole process, and there is little exposure to the sun. Although it is easy to walk, you should pay attention to it. After the first 6.5 K, the slope will start to rise sharply, and you need to pull the rope. It may have been a long time before, so this paragraph will feel long. The hinterland of the triangle point is ordinary, and it will still be crowded when there are many people on holidays. No prospect. Malun trail is 7k from the trail head. You can either take the main route starting from camp sites, or enter from the fruit from side (through 8 pines groves). The elevation change is about 1095 m. So it's one of the easiest of the Guguan 7. However, the trail length is the longest of all, so one still have to take about 7 hours to complete the trail. Malun trail has very few vista points, but it takes hikers through wide varieties of forests. It's quite an enjoyable walk.
