Neigou Mountain Cuifeng Trail Introduction
The Cuihu Trail connects to the Neigou Mountain Trail in Xizhi, attracting many visitors during the tung blossom season for a nature walk and flower viewing. The trail is mostly a gently sloping and easy-to-walk dirt path, accessible from the second entrance of the Neigou Mountain Trail. Originally a mining service trail, the Cuihu Trail fell into disrepair after the mine was closed but was later renovated and transformed into a hiking trail. Along the way, visitors can see the ruins of the Beigang No. 2 Mine, an important coal mine in Xizhi's early days, which has been gradually covered by vines since its abandonment. Currently, only the remnants of walls give a glimpse of the mine's former glory. Additionally, there's Cuihu, a small reservoir that was once an important water source for the miners, though it appears modest today.
