Qingshan Waterfall Trail Introduction
Qingshan Waterfall is located at the upstream of Laomei River in Jianshan Lake, formerly known as Jianshanhu Waterfall. The towering bamboo mountain gathers the abundant water from the mountains, and the water flows through a gorge with a significant drop, thus forming the Qingshan Waterfall amidst the Shimen Mountain forest. As you slowly ascend along the trail, you are accompanied by Qingshan and Laomei River, with shady trees and the sounds of insects and birds, making it a pleasant escape even during the summer heat. To visit the picturesque Qingshan Waterfall, one must climb up along the Kan-Diliao Irrigation Canal that was constructed for irrigating terraced fields. Following the gentle sound of the water, you can leisurely stroll along the path. Looking around, you are surrounded by Qingshan and Laomei River, with the sway of Miscanthus grasses in the wind, along with various uniquely growing trees flanking you, and occasionally, you can glance back at the coast, watching the hills rise and fall from the mountains, showcasing terraced fields in every direction, reveling in the joy of high-altitude viewing. Upon reaching Shimen, besides walking along the coastline to witness the magical changes of nature, you might as well drive towards the mountains and embark on a serene journey along the Qingshan Waterfall Trail, enjoying the comfort and ease away from the hustle and bustle.
