Taitung Attractions

Moganshan Introduction

Motian is renowned for its ancient forests, but has gradually been transformed into a high-altitude vegetable garden due to deforestation, and the landscape has changed over time. Motian is rich in bird ecology, home to many species, including herons and rails, along with the notable black-faced spoonbill, though the once-famous swamp hen has vanished. Nearby, majestic landscapes are hidden, such as a hiking trail to the Xinwulu Creek upstream hot springs, located to the right of a grocery store 169 kilometers away from the Motian Farm, which takes about 50 minutes to reach; the nearby Nan Heng Forest, lush and green; and the 9-kilometer Xinwulu Creek Canyon between Lidao and Lulu, which has an S-shaped profile. The surrounding mountains form a great cliff, presenting a dramatic and magnificent canyon view, making it an ideal spot for outdoor activities.
