Nanji Trail Introduction

The Nanzilin Trail, commonly known as "Nanzai Mian," is nestled behind the Nanya Fishing Port in Ruifang. It refers to the southern area from Water Nan Cave to Bitou Cape. The trail is well-planned, featuring a wooden boardwalk in the front section and stone steps in the middle and rear sections, making it easy to walk on. Upon reaching the top, visitors can enjoy a stunning view of the bay in the Northeast Coast, with layers of verdant mountains creating a very accessible mountain-sea scenic trail. This high-cost-performance mountain-sea scenic trail spans only 990 meters, with the observation deck situated at an altitude of 196 meters. It takes only 30-60 minutes to reach the summit. In this short distance, you can appreciate the breathtaking mountain-sea scenery, with the cliff platform at the eastern peak of Nanzilin offering an endless view of the ocean ahead, while the famous Golden Ten Pinnacles stand behind you. The main peak, the Eight-Star Grass landmark, radiates toward popular attractions nearby, including Keelung Island, Yin Yang Sea, Keelung Mountain, the Shihsan Ruins of Water Nan Cave, Wuer Tea Pot Mountain, Jianlong Ridge, Bitou Cape, Coastal Highway, Nanya Qiyan, and Nanya Fishing Port, all visible from every angle. From dawn to dusk, the approachable Nanzilin Trail attracts many photography enthusiasts. Spring and summer are ideal for capturing the dawn at Nanya Fishing Port and the sunset over Keelung Mountain. In autumn and winter, the mountains sway with silver-white miscanthus grass, offering a romantic and ethereal view. Evening time is perfect for capturing the car trails on the coastal road and the fishing lights on the sea.
