An afternoon visit to the Táoyuángǔ (桃源谷) Trail
I visited the Táoyuángǔ trail recently...its an extension of the caoling trail which i have done some times before...
I ususally end here but today si started here...
A temple near Dali train station...
The caoling trail...
"Taoyuan valley trail"...is where we are heading...
It was pretty warm down at the ocean level...
...north of yilan at the east coast of taiwan...
With 2 interns...
This is the peninsula with some hikes...
Fially at the trail enrance...
and they had plenty of porches...
Carl was so warm he went topless...
It was a mysterious path...
Carl brough his camera...to take pics...not much view...rather the myst path of eastern taiwan...
we also encountered some cows...
Pretty rare in taiwan...
Many kodak moments...
Carl didnt miss many chances to take a pic...
They even had characters to ask people to take it easy...
And most of the pics were made for sunny days...however it was nice with the cloud due to lack of shade on the path...
The peak was 616m over ocean level...
...and some other monument...
After some time we evaluated how far to walk...since the path was pretty slippery at the end...and most people told us not to walk to far....
we ended at this place...
2km left to the Taoyuangu site...
If we only knew what we missed....scenic sight wise...
It was pretty foggy...
After a while we made it to some peak...
It was a retty mysterious day and hike...
Carl was enjoying the wind...
Heading the last kilometer back to Dali train station
Its getting hotter the lower we get...and the wind is not that strong down the low altitudes either...
But Carl was happy
...he kept talking pics at the tran station...
We also tried to go to yilan but it was about an hour before next train went there...so we took the train north instead towards taipei...
...jeremy wanted to go for all you can eat pizza hut...
We also went to ximen later...
And to gongguan...
