Taoyuan Valley Trail Guanyin stone line

The Shiguanyin Trail was once a memory of climbing with my family when I was a child. I revisited the old place. This time I feel that this place is out of the ordinary. The front end of the trail is gentle and shaded. Although the road conditions are not very good, it is still easy to walk. There is only one steep rise in the middle and back stages, continuously climbing to 300 meters above sea level. For me, who is not in the habit of continuous exercise, it is indeed a little tired and a little challenging. But after climbing, you can see the Pacific Ocean and Guishan Island. It is suitable for a morning walking activity! The small iron bridge in the middle, for me who is afraid of heights, is still a little thrilling. On the way back, I saw a little green snake on the stairs, and I was surprised to have a snack. Fortunately, after waiting for a short rest, it got into the grass, and then I ran down the mountain.

There are many entrances to Taoyuan Valley. The entrance of Daxi Riverside Park in Yilan, or the old trail along the Caoling Trail at both ends of Fulong and Dali Tiangong Temple, can go to Taoyuan Valley. The easiest route for tourists is the Neiliao Line and Neiliao of Gongliao. The Da Niupu route on the branch of the line is the easiest. Next is the Shiguanyin Line, which is called Shiguanyin Line because there is a Shiguanyin Temple halfway up the mountain, and there is also an archway of Shiguanyin Temple before going up the mountain. Compared with other routes, the geology along the Shiguanyin Line is more unstable. There are many repaired sections of collapse, and the stairs are also relatively sloping. Because there are fewer people walking than other routes, it is also relatively slippery. Pay special attention to the downhill. The entrance of Shiguanyin Line is next to the Xiafanshu Bridge between Dali Railway Station and Daxi Railway Station. After going out through the railway, turn right and go along the railway side road. You will see the archway of Shiguanyin Temple. Go through the archway and enter. A small earth temple, you can park a few cars in the square in front of the temple, go straight up the stairs and you can go to Taoyuan Valley. The Shiguanyin Line does not go all the way up, it is also necessary to climb over two mountains, up and down is also necessary, passing through two small valleys in the middle, climbing all the way up and watching Guishan Island for fun. The scenery also has different changes, quite good, about 6-7 kilometers back and forth on the original road.
