As I mentioned above, getting to Alishan can be quite complicated, and it’s one of the most common questions I help travelers with in my Taiwan Travel Planning group. If you want to forget about all the logistics, including figuring out the bus and train times, and stress about missing them, then I recommend the following Alishan tours. Discover Al...
Alishan was originally the hunting grounds of the Tsou (Zou or 鄒) tribe, who still live in villages in the area, especially east of Shizhuo. Alishan has been Taiwan’s most popular mountain resort by visitor numbers for nearly a century. Along with Sun Moon Lake and Taroko Gorge, it is one of the country’s most famous scenic attractions. Located in ...
One of the most incredible times to visit Alishan is when the cherry blossoms are blooming (see my Taiwan cherry blossom guide). Due to the altitude, this happens very late in the season, usually March and April(depending on that year’s weather), and marks the end of the cherry blossom season in Taiwan. If you are hoping to see the cherry blossoms ...
Wrapping your head around the Alishan National Forest Recreation Area, how to get there, stopovers on the way there, hiking trails, and different train lines can be quite difficult. That’s why I’ve designed the above Alishan map. This map should answer a lot of questions and includes several of the spots I’ll be discussing in the below article. For...
If you don’t have much time, or perhaps you couldn’t get a hotel in Alishan, you might want to visit Alishan as a day trip. It’s surely possible, but you won’t be able to see sunrise, and you’ll want to leave early so you don’t miss the last bus back down the mountain. If you’re going on a day trip to Alishan, then I also recommend taking the bus t...
If you have more time, you can consider stopping for a few hours (or even overnight!) on the way to Alishan. Eryanping, Fenqihu, and Shizhuo are three excellent options. They feature a variety of hikes, tea farms, and scenic views. These spots are very much off-the-beaten track. Little English will be spoken, but if you go the extra mile, these are...
What most people refer to as “Alishan” is the collection of tourist facilities, short railway lines, and hiking trails on the northern tip of the Alishan National Forest Recreation Area. This is where the vast majority of visitors experience Alishan, and it is the most famous and popular of Taiwan’s many mountain resorts and forest recreation areas...
Most of Alishan’s hotels are found on a curving road behind the tourist village parking lot. Most of these hotels are equally old and overpriced. Due to high demand and limited rooms, they often sell out. In my opinion, the pick of the bunch right now is Shermuh Hotel (see on Booking / Agoda / read reviews). They recently renovated so it looks newe...
Most restaurants are found around the parking lot in the tourist village. Here you can find hot pot and several places serving fairly similar meals. The pick of the bunch seems to be 999 Restaurant(九九九餐廳) on the second floor, and nearly identical Xin Xingguang(新星光餐廳)next door. Their large soups, mountain greens, noodles, and other local-style dishe...
As I mentioned above, Alishan is usually about 10 degrees colder than lower altitudes in Taiwan (see Alishan’s average monthly temperatures). Therefore, in summer in TaiwanAlishan can be pleasantly warm but chilly at night, so you still need to bring proper clothing, especially for sunrise viewing. Summer is also one of the most popular times, so i...
