Wild Horse Lookout Forest Trail Introduction
**Secret Spots in the Mountains - Triangular Point Exploration** The Xueba Seven Scenic Trails are located in the Guanshan area of Wufeng Township, Hsinchu County, specifically in the "Wild Horse Lookout Mountain Forest Trail," nestled within the Xueba Leisure Farm. This is a hidden hiking route that offers a blend of natural scenery and a tranquil atmosphere. The trailhead is situated within the farm, making it easily accessible for both experienced hikers and family visitors. Starting from the welcoming building of Xueba Farm, after passing the Yunhai Café, a walk of about ten minutes will lead you to the summit of Wild Horse Lookout Mountain, which is approximately 2,000 meters above sea level. Here, you will find a well-maintained third-order triangular point and directional markers. Although the elevation is not high, it provides an excellent view, and in winter, you may have the chance to enjoy the "Seven Sceneries of Xueba": sunrise, sunset glow, sea of clouds, mountain scenery, misty scenery, rainy scenery, and starry skies, making it an unforgettable experience. Behind the summit viewing platform, there is a circular forest trail marked with numbers from 1 to 40 on the tree trunks. Walking on the soft carpet of cedar leaves, you will pass by old dead wood and remnants of old logging. At two viewpoints along the way, you can enjoy distant views of Wuzhishan, E-gongji Mountain, and the Leishan Radar Station, along with panoramic views of the entire farm, creating an expansive and refreshing atmosphere. In addition to hiking and sightseeing, after descending, you can experience fruit picking, flower appreciation within the farm or head to the nearby Guanshan National Forest Recreation Area to continue enjoying the mountain scenery. You can also choose to camp overnight or soak in hot springs at Qingquan, enjoying a multi-layered travel experience from the mountain peak to the valley. It is worth mentioning that the Wild Horse Lookout Mountain Forest Trail is also one of the designated trails for the "2025 Forest Adventure in Zhu County - Pipi Lion Expedition Team"!
