Route suggestion 1: Shuishan Giant Tree Trail (round trip takes about 1.5 hours)

The Water Mountain Giant Tree Trail is a beautiful trail that looks like a fairyland. It is about 1.6 kilometers long and the entrance is only a five-minute walk from Numadaira Station. Because it has just been renovated, not many tourists know about it, so it is deserted and has a sense of being in a fairyland. The name of the trail is "Water Mountain Giant Tree" because there is a 2,700-year-old red cypress tree at the end.
