Nantou Hiking and Hot Springs

On most of our travelogues up to now, our hiking paths have now been paved with either cement, wood or maybe stone. This is pretty close to nature, as close as you can get without being dangerous.
Without being dangerous. You can say that again. I saw the sign you know.
What sign?
Oh nothing much, just the sign that says it��s crawling with poisonous snakes, centipedes and wasps.
Poisonous snakes, centipedes and wasps. Are you serious? That��s why the hat?
Poisonous snakes, wasps and centipedes? This is going to be an adventure...
Huisun Forest has been around since 1920, during the Japanese occupation. It was an experimental forest belonging to Hokkaido Imperial University.
Covering almost 7000 hectares with a range of more than 2000 meters in elevation, Huisun Forest is a great place for nature lovers. There are five major trails, and most of it is unpaved.
There are trails for the beginner hiker and there are also some that require quite a bit of effort.
From heart attack inducing trails to easy breezy ones, there��s something for everyone. Oh hey, look there are hammocks as well. Oh, but there��s only one left.
Rock paper scissors?
Yeah.
Rock paper scissors!
Ah. Out of three.
Fine.
Rock paper scissors! Rock paper scissors!
Ah haha! Go! I win!
Ah, this feels great. You can meditate, vegetate, levitate, or even irritate your friend while you��re here. Un cafe s��il vous plait.
We may have the oldest coffee trees in the country. Seedlings from our trees are now being grown in nearby places like Guoxing and Dongshan, Tainan.
Speaking of Guoxing Township, the odorless and colorless sodium bicarbonate hot springs here are quite popular as well.
Soaking in that naturally hot water, that��s just the best, you know? A hike in the morning, a soak in the evening, and a good night��s sleep.
