Mother's Peak Trail Introduction

The Pingxi area in New Taipei City is surrounded by mountains, with around 20 peaks collectively known as the "Twenty-Four Filial Piety Mountains." Among them, three notable peaks are Xiaozimountain, Cimu Peak, and Putuo Mountain, which may appear difficult to climb. Fortunately, there are man-made rock stairs, as well as ropes and railings for support, making it accessible for many hikers. The trail starts at the entrance near Shidibashi, passing through a low-elevation broadleaf forest valley to reach a crossroads where three peaks meet: to the left is Xiaozimountain, to the right is Putuo Mountain, and straight ahead leads to Cimu Peak. Cimu Peak stands at an elevation of 410 meters, and from the summit, one can continue north to the prominent Putuo Mountain.
