Dazhu Waterfall Introduction
The entrance to Daqiu Waterfall is located in Xinfeng Village, Gao Shu Township, beside County Road 185 along the mountain highway at the 2 km mark. It is also known as "Awu Waterfall," "Weiliao Waterfall," or "Xinfeng Waterfall." The waterfall has five tiers, with the first and second tiers being more popular and equipped with well-maintained trails. The dense shade provides a natural umbrella, frequently attracting many visitors. The waterfall is approximately 20 meters high and cascades down at a 90-degree angle, resembling white silk hanging from the cliff. Although the valley is not large, the dense shade creates an atmosphere filled with the sound of water, and climbing to the pavilion for a view of Pingtung's lush scenery is a must-see for visitors. It is recommended to spend about 1 hour here, with roughly 20-30 minutes of walking time to reach the waterfall, excluding rest time. Since the third, fourth, and fifth tiers of the waterfall are located deep in the forest and are less accessible, they are less frequented by people and may have snakes or insects; thus, it is best to have complete equipment and be cautious about personal safety when visiting.
