Dinghu Trail Introduction
Dinghu is located next to Shizhao and is one of the important ecological tourism sites planned by the Alishan National Scenic Area Administration in recent years. The Dinghu Lakeside Trail features a Moso bamboo forest trail, a natural primeval forest boardwalk, and fossilized traces, making it suitable for 1 to 2 hours of hiking and strolling. From National Highway 18 at the 66K mark, turn left about 100 meters in front of the Mihu Trail, then drive approximately 4 kilometers uphill to Dinghu. The view opens up before you, where local farmers can often be seen working in the tea fields, with mountain mists weaving through the layers of hills. Within the park area, you can stroll along the trails to pavilions and the Moso bamboo forest. There is also a primitive forest boardwalk that leads to Mount Dazhong, and in front of the pavilion, there is a large boulder known locally as Guanyin Stone, which has traces of fossilized imprints on its surface.
