Saiga Community Trail Introduction
The Saijia Trail is located behind Saijia Elementary School, with a total length of 2,100 meters, leading to Saijia Airport. Walking along the Saijia Trail, you can often hear the calls of soaring White-tailed Eagles and Crested Serpent Eagles. If you're lucky, the endangered Taiwan Barbet may also join in with its deep nasal sounds. At night, you can even hear the calls of owls. At the entrance of the trail, Saijia Elementary School has built a butterfly ecological park, planting many food plants for butterflies as well as nectar plants. If you take a night ecological tour, you can listen closely for the ticking sounds of the Microhylid frog, the turkey-like calls of the Mosquito Frog, the chirping of the Japanese Tree Frog, the sounds of the Raidler's Red Frog mimicking human bathroom noises, and the calls of the pond frog asking for money. The collective croaking of these different frog species is lively and interesting, resembling a pastoral symphony. It is recommended to spend about 1 hour to leisurely experience the tranquility of the ecological trail and the natural scenery along the way.
