Shuangqi Village Ambush Flat Hiking Trail (Closed) Introduction
Due to the heavy rain brought by Typhoon Danas in July and the southwest monsoon on July 28, disaster recovery works will be carried out. To avoid any danger, this mountain trail has been closed. Visitors are requested not to enter during the renovation period; we apologize for the inconvenience. The Shuangxi Village Ambush Ping Mountain Trail is 2.6 kilometers long, with an elevation ranging from 520 to 760 meters. The trailhead is located next to the Free Community Office in the Heping District, and it runs along the Taoshu Garden Trail to connect to the ridge, culminating at Section 2 of Dongqi Road. The trail is located along the Daan River and is part of the Shuangxi Village of the Atayal Tribe, rich in natural forest resources, diverse ecosystems, and indigenous characteristics and culture. The remnants of the village's water channels and the narrow, mysterious cave entrance pique tourists' curiosity. Along the way, visitors can enjoy views of Shuangxi Village and the Daan River Valley, with the mountain scenery providing a refreshing experience. Standing among the century-old Zelkova trees, the towering trees that several people can embrace reach skyward, showcasing the magnificent appearance of the primeval forest. For visitors to the Shuangxi Village Ambush Ping Mountain Trail, which once served as the hunting path of the Atayal tribe's Beishi community, it offers close encounters with the mountains and a deep experience of Taiwan's diverse culture. The bamboo groves and century-old Zelkova forests are stunning natural landscapes that make it a highly recommended photo spot. The natural stone steps carved from giant rocks add a unique charm to the trail.
