Jiaobanshan & Little Wulai
Highway 7, which stretches about 130km, begins at history-rich Daxi town in the west, follows the Dahan River to its upper reaches, and jumps the Xueshan (Snow Mountain) Range, ending by the coast on Yilan County’s Lanyang Plain.
Our first stop was Jiaobanshan Park. Clear signage (with English) along Highway 7 points you down County Highway 117, to “Central Fuxing.” The park entrance is on the right of the main road, down a short alley, just as you enter Fuxing, a cluster of a few-score buildings. The quiet, pretty landscaped grounds (free entry) take up a wide plateau right behind the settlement, high over the exaggeratedly serpentine Dahan River, twisting like a giant dragon forcing a mountain egress. The central attraction in the park is a villa – the Jiaobanshan Resort – once used by Chiang Kai-shek, now a museum filled with photos of events past.
Visit the underground command-post bunker complex – the War Preparedness Tunnel – inside the plateau beneath the villa, dug out should the Generalissimo come under attack from Mao Zedong’s red forces, and take the well-maintained plateau-escape trail down to a graceful suspension bridge on the river, where back when a speedboat always stood ready to whisk CKS downriver to the Daxi command base should the main highway be cut off.
Other plateau-top buildings house displays on the region’s logging and camphor-production days. Before early 1900s synthetic-camphor production began, Taiwan was a key natural-camphor producer. Beyond trading, first contact between Han Chinese and island mountain tribes often came with Han camphor-extraction incursions.
Further along Highway 7, a left turn takes you uphill along County Highway 115 to the Little Wulai Scenic Area. The turnoff is just before the 7 jumps the Dahan to its south (left bank) side. A short way up a tributary, the scenic area is centered on a picturesquely rugged gorge and the loud, hurtling waterfall that exclaims its end. From the parking lot (NT$100 per vehicle), a gorge-side walkway takes you a few hundred meters to the glass-bottom Little Wulai Skywalk (NT$50 adults; closed noon-1pm), boldly extended directly over the 50m-high falls. This is a hanging-valley waterfall; the cliffs directly below you are an active fault line.
For more exercise than that offered along the short above-falls pathway, the steep, 750m Fall Base walk is highly recommended. Clearly signposted in English, it starts not far from the skywalk and takes you to a scenic spot from where you can see the waterfall in all its glory from below.
The Northern Cross-Island Highway
This is one of three stunningly scenic highways that snake their way east-west over Taiwan’s thick north-south mountain spine. The names of the other two begin with “Central” and “Southern,” respectively. All were major projects undertaken by the Nationalist government, worried about the Communist China threat, to facilitate cross-island military movement, especially should round-island coastal-area movement be cut off. This route initially was just a narrow garrison road hacked out by the Japanese during their 1895-1945 suzerainty, augmenting Atayal-tribe control. The Nationalist government widened, smoothed, and paved it 1963~1966.

Xiaowulai Skywalk | How to get there?
How to get there? Most of the people asking me that,
I stayed in Luzhu District and me going to Xiaowulai is easy because there are GR buses passing by. Once you're in Taoyuan City Bus Station. You can ride a bus #502, and that will go directly to Xiaowulai.

XiaoWulai (小烏來風景), Taoyuan, Taiwan, 07/21/2010
Xiao Wulai Waterfall (小烏來瀑布) is located near the town of Fuxing in Taoyuan County. It is a spectaculare waterfall and very easy to access without any strenuous hiking involved. Near the top of the waterfall you can see the Wind Moving Rock (風動石) - a large boulder that seems precariously balanced. Xiao Wulai should not be confused with Wulai , south of Xindian in Taipei County. Although they are both famous for their waterfalls and Atayal culture.
Getting to Xiao Wulai (小烏來風景) is a little difficult without your own vehicle. However, it is possible to take a bus from Taipei or Taoyuan to Daxi and then another bus to Fuxing. From there you could take a taxi to Xiao Wulai and some of the other local attractions. Buses going on to Luofu from Fuxing will pass about one kilometre from the entrance to Xiao Wulai.
XIAO WULAI

Chasing waterfalls in Wulai (烏來) - Taiwan vlog
Went to Wulai on a day trip from Taiwan. Started with taking the scenic train up the mountain and going chasing waterfalls. Learning more about the Atayal tribe, trying vegan food like bamboo rice and mochi. Finished the day by checking out the public natural hot springs located by the side of the river.

B&D going to XIAO WULAI SKYWALK
ADVENTURE Failed | Xiaowulai Skywalk Bridge
Sad to say guys, we did not make it to the Skywalk Bridge, we only make it to the viewing bridge, it's like a Half Glass Bridge that can view some waterfalls. but we enjoy exploring! Hope you enjoy our video too. Thank you for watching! Like and Subscribe.
XiaoWulai Skywalk
The sky (glass bottomed) bridge was very short and allows the visitors a good view of the waterfall. But the other hanging bridges were more interesting and scenic. The most scenic bridge is yixinqiao. But requires good fitness to reach. Be prepared. Lots of steps to climb. But the view is worthwhile.
XiaoWulai is located at Fuxing district, Taoyuan City, Taiwan.
???? TRIP TO LALASHAN, with VERY OLD TREES and a CUTE CAT (北橫拉拉山)

Lalashan
The route up Lalashan (Mt. Lala), County Highway 116, starts just past (east of) the village of Lower Baling, and ends far up on the mountain at the Lalashan Forest Reserve, on the way passing Upper Baling, an Atayal village. In the Upper Baling area you’ll travel along a sharp ridge, with deep mountain valleys visible on both sides in spots. “lala” and “baling” are both Atayal terms; the first means “beautiful,” the second “giant trees.”
On the way up, stop at the attractive stone-facade Lalashan Visitor Center, not far above Lower Baling, where there is text and video information (with English) on the area’s flora, fauna, and geography. Also visit the small nature center just before the forest reserve, which offers information on the reserve’s trails, biology, and geology. An entirely different world awaits in the reserve, where a marked boardwalk trail meanders 3.7km up and down the mountainside past 22 sacred trees. In this magical ancient-cypress cluster all are least 500 years young; the most senior sprouted 2,800 years ago, and the tallest soars 55m high. [Note: At time of writing the boardwalk was being rebuilt, with the main part of the area closed; phone (03) 391-2761 for enquiries about the latest status of the reserve.]
Taiwan’s “Sacred Trees”
During the Japanese era, Taiwan’s natural resources were systematically mapped and exploited. Narrow-gauge railways were built up into the rugged mountains in many places for extraction of its high-grade wood resources, and today a number remain – notably the Alishan Forest Railway – all popular tourist attractions. Fortunately, in numerous remote locations small stands of great trees escaped the axe, and these have also become popular tourist attractions, invariably either called shenmu (“sacred/divine trees”) or jumu (“giant trees”).
HeFong Villa is a B&B perched high on the Lalashan ridge above Upper Baling, Lalashan’s largest settlement, with an unobstructed view over the mountains to the west. The sunsets here are spectacular. The villa’s exterior reminds me of the big, rambling clapboard-siding farmhouses back in my home area, eastern North America. The high-ceilinged, spacious, simply furnished rooms are done in wood, chalet-style. Each has a small private fenced-in porch out front with a picnic table that has a barbecue grill fitted in the center; all needed equipment/utensils are supplied. Across the courtyard garden, stretched out along a slope with the owner-couple’s honey-peach orchard below, is a lovely wood-built viewing deck with picnic tables – a grand choice for enjoying your complimentary breakfast and a fresh-brewed coffee (NT$100) from the cute coffee/juice bar. (Rooms start at NT$2,500; Chinese breakfast included; bring your own towels.)
