Dahu Jian Mountain Trail Introduction
Dahu Jian Mountain, also known as Jiancongzi Mountain, rises to an elevation of 1,357 meters. It has no marked summit point and is the highest peak among the "Three Sharp and Four Frozen" in Chiayi County. It is located 2 kilometers northeast of Dahu Village in Fanlu Township, Chiayi County, adjacent to the jackfruit trees of Guanghua Village in Zhuqi Township to the east. To the northwest of Dahu Jian Mountain is Hongcailing, which extends northward to Baiyaling and connects to the Sijianwang Mountains near Shuishenaliao; to the southwest lie Bantian Rock and Sanbao Mountain in a north-south alignment. Surrounded by towering peaks, it features diverse weather patterns, with the Bajhang River flowing gracefully below the mountain. This activity begins at the roadside near Huoshaoliao Highway in Dahu Village, marked by a large sign that reads "Jianshan Hiking Trail." Entering the mountain from this point takes about three hours to reach the summit. Dahu Jian Mountain is renowned in the southern hiking community for its steep ridges, majestic scenery, and stimulating climbing routes. The summit offers excellent views with changing scenery, sometimes shrouded in mist and at other times adorned with colorful skies, making it a peak well worth the visit.
