Residents of Mt.Hehuan Nantou, Taiwan
In this blog, I will introduce you to the residents of Mt.Hehuan. If you are following me on my blogs @krios003 you've probably seen my recent post about The Breathe Taking Mt.Hehuan North Peak - Nantou, Taiwan. While I was on a long day of hiking across the peaks of Mt. Hehuan, I made sure to capture stunning photos of its inhabitants to share it with you.
Here is a bonus aerial video of Mt.Hehuan or Hehuanshan (合歡山) to get you excited. 😉

Nantou County, Ren’ai TownshipHehuanshan, also known as Mt. Hehuan, is a prominent mountain range located in central Taiwan. It is part of the Central Mountain Range, which runs down the spine of the island. Specifically, Hehuanshan straddles the border between Nantou County and Hualien County. Trail Location. |
Residents of Hehuan Mountain
Mt. Hehuan, much like the Alps, is home to stunning pine forests that add to its picturesque scenery.
In Mt. Hehuan, the dominant coniferous tree species are the Taiwan hemlock, also known as "柳杉" or "Liu Shan" in Chinese, and the Yushan cane, known as "玉山扁柏" or "Yu Shan Bian Bai". These two species are characteristic of the high-altitude coniferous forests in Taiwan, including those found in the Mt. Hehuan area.
In my recent blog, I mentioned my fondness for veering off the main trail during hikes. It's a way to uncover hidden treasures not easily seen along the beaten path. However, I want to emphasize that this isn't something I'd recommend for inexperienced hikers, especially in Taiwan where mountain terrain can be perilous. Safety always comes first!
Here are some photos of the lovely flowers I encountered during my hike. While I may not know their names, their beauty and vibrancy certainly caught my eye.

The photo on the left in the last row isn't a flower, but rather the leaves of the Taiwan Fir (Abies kawakamii). I'm particularly drawn to the texture of these leaves.
And here is another bonus aerial image of the North Peak trail of Mt.Hehuan during the sunrise and moonset (very unusual to hear this word) as I end this blog post.
I hope you enjoyed my introduction to the inhabitants of Mt.Hehuan 😉 I will be posting more about my hiking trip to Mt.Hehuan North and West peaks, so make sure to subscribe to my blog! 😊
