Huoyan Mountain Nan'an Ancient Trail Introduction
Huoyanshan is a rare badlands landscape in Taiwan, with exposed rock layers, sparse vegetation, and red cliffs that resemble an alien world. From a distance, it looks like a roaring fire, creating an impression of entering a "lunar world," which is why it has earned the title of Taiwan's Grand Canyon. Huoyanshan has an elevation of 602 meters, with most of the trail built from dirt and stone steps. The path is mostly uphill but is shaded by forests, making the hike cool and comfortable. However, some sections are narrow and steep, and the area is seismically vulnerable, offering an experience that feels like walking on a precipice, which can be quite thrilling.
