Route suggestion 1: Shuishan Giant Tree Trail (the whole trip takes about 1.5 hours round trip)
There is a beautiful trail like a fairyland. The Shuishan Giant Tree Trail is about 1.6 kilometers in length. The entrance is only a five-minute walk from Chaoping Station. Because it has just been renovated, there are not many tourists who know about it, so walking along it is not crowded. It has an ethereal feeling of being in an alien paradise. The trail is named Shuishan Giant Tree because there is a 2,700-year-old red cypress sacred tree at the end.
Route Suggestion 2: Zhushan Sun Viewing Trail (the whole round trip takes about 2.5 hours)
Walk to the nearby Alpine Botanical Garden, the highest landmark in Alishan, which is a private attraction far away from the hustle and bustle and with a unique and quiet atmosphere.
After checking out, your luggage can be stored in the lobby and your valuables can be placed on your person (please refer to the hotel announcement for the actual check-out time)
If you have time, you can go to Alishan Shopping Street to buy famous Alishan products and let your relatives and friends enjoy them.
