Shih Pai Keng Water Recreation Path Introduction
Shihpai Keng is located near the Si Mian Fo Temple and the Wild Pit Stream, which has water throughout the year. The river environment is rich in plant and animal ecology and features unique geological landscapes. The Soil and Water Conservation Bureau has used ecological engineering to preserve the meandering nature of the stream and maintain biodiversity, establishing approximately 1.1 km of water-friendly ecological trails. Visitors can hear the sounds of insects and birds and see various animals such as the Taiwan butterfly, powder butterfly, Taiwan shrimp, marsh crab, tree frog, and the crab spider, experiencing the unpolluted natural tranquility and beauty. Visitors can park their vehicles at the Si Mian Fo Temple parking lot (motorcycles, small cars, and large buses) and walk about 200 meters to the trailhead. After reaching the end of the trail, they will need to turn back. The trail is overall flat, with explanatory signs along the way. Local community groups provide guided tours on the trail, making it suitable for family ecological education. Trail length: 1 kilometer. Walking time: 1 hour. Facilities include: a resting trellis, warning signs, explanatory signs, and the Si Mian Fo Temple parking lot (motorcycles, small cars, and large buses).
The trailhead is located next to the industrial road, with a sign installed.
The rest area features a bamboo canopy that blends well with the surrounding environment.
