Sky Ladder Trail Introduction
The attraction known as "Sky Ladder" refers to the steep terrain and carries the meaning of a path to seek wisdom from the heavens. It is a circular route, which means you do not need to retrace your steps. Because it is a loop, some say this represents the process of seeking knowledge from above, experiencing a cycle. At the Softbank Pit area, there is also a weekend farmer's market. Nearby other attractions include Yuching Temple, Tian Gong Temple, Ling Stone Riverside Park, Qiedong Uncle, and the Glazed Light Temple. When visiting the Sky Ladder Trail, it is recommended to consider including the Softbank Pit Agricultural District in your itinerary, which offers not only a natural environment but also the Dongshi Agricultural Specialty Park. Additionally, there are limited accommodation and dining options within the Softbank Pit area, so it is advisable to dine in nearby Dongshi or Xinshe before entering the park. Furthermore, the months of April and May are particularly suitable for firefly watching.
