Hualien Attractions

Heren Beach Introduction

From the Suhua Highway 168.5K, at the entrance of the Heren Path near the Heren Stele of the national park, walk down for about 200 meters. After crossing a small forest path, you will reach Heren Gravel Beach. What first catches the eye are various sized stones on the beach, which originally fell from the cliff due to landslides. Next, you'll see a vast expanse of clean, warm gravel beach formed by marble and schist fragments brought from the northern Liwu River and Qnagan River (Heren Creek), accumulated and transported by the sea. On the southern side of the gravel beach, there is a wide, flat sea cave. Continuing south, there are large granite cliffs with several major quartz veins running through them; such large veins are rare in Taiwan. At the southernmost side of the gravel beach, several narrow caves can be seen, one of which has pierced through the rock layer.
