YangMingShan LengShuiKeng

The moment you arrive, you'll suddenly become aware of the slight tinge of sulphur in the air. Despite that, the air here is refreshing, though occasionally damp from the frequent afternoon shower. The mountain breeze sweeps across the peaks and imbues the atmosphere with a sense of serenity and the calls of a million insects. Shrills and shrieks of the cicadas and frogs fill the cloudy mornings and late evenings. A few tourists and locals roam the welcome center during the weekdays. You'll notice a group of fit elderly men and women completing their usual hike. Give them wave and you'll be greeted with cheers and sometimes a snack. Stop by the local hot springs, even if not for a full body soak, check out the foot pool. If you've been hiking all day, it's more than a spot to relax but a chance to catch up and listen to latest gossip. Maybe the village head's son has gone to America for college, maybe a daughter was recently married. Listen and enjoy the narrative and watch the sights.

Great place for hiking and picnicking!

A nice scenery for hiking. We started in Qintiangang Grassland till the Lengshuikeng Visitor Center.

I went to Yangmingshan in rainny, couldy and foggy day that I can't see anything. But I found a lot of people to help me. Tourist informations' staffs is good in english and they guided and tried to help you. If Another Taiwanese tourist know you problem or wrong situation, they will try to help you too. They are friendly, kindness, helpfulness and have a good comment to help you to get a good choice. That make me felt good when rememer about Yangmingshan. If you want to go to Yangmingshan, please choose sunny day.

Good experience with friends, but the peak is full of humungous flying bugs, left after 5 mins at the top. Buses are really inconvenient though, and the last one comes around 5-6pm, so don't start hiking too late. Ordering taxi to go back down to Taipei is pretty expensive.

You can hike to Qixing (2+ hrs roundtrip) and Qingtiangang (2+ hrs round trip) from this point. When it’s windy and cloudy, the hike up and down the peaks is quite scary. But it’s not hard. Going down actually is more challenging than up. I love how green this area is!

Big national park in Taipei. I and my sister traveled in April 2019. We went there by bus and hike for 4-5 hrs. There had a lot of elderly who healthy and hike while we feel so tired haha. The views at the top were valuable to see. Let's challenge yourself!!!!

Simply amazing for hiking or just sightseeing. Easy access for inside outside. The view was amazing. If you have enough energy you must reach the top of the mountain where they have gazebo and you can stay there.
