What To Expect
Wulai
Take a scenic train ride on the historic Wulai log cart, which used to transport timber and now serves as a scenic way. Enjoy the nostalgic feel of this ride and the beautiful scenery along the 1.6-kilometer route.
Check out Wulai Waterfall—the tallest in northern Taiwan! Known as the "Taki of Clouds," this waterfall turns extra epic after heavy rain, splitting into two powerful streams. And in spring? Cherry blossoms pop up all around, adding pink touches to the forest. It's big, it's beautiful, and it’s a must-see!

Magical return to Nature in Wulai

5.00Jennifer was our tour guide to a wonderful day in Wulai. Wulai was recommended by a local bar tender in Taipei. We are so glad that we were able to visit this beautiful spot. The memories of this trip will be long lasting! Jennifer was communicative and checked in with us ahead of time. As an LGBTQ+ couple, we felt very safe, and welcomed by Jennifer, which was a great relief as we explored rural Taiwan. (This was true everywhere we went in Taiwan - very LGBTQ+ friendly!!) She picked us up on time in a friendly and welcoming manner. From the get go, she was informative, and asked for our preferences for the tour, quickly reorganizing things so we could have the day suit our interests, while staying on time. Jennifer gave us options for hot spring spots, and showed us the stunning waterfall at Wulai, and the little train that took us to the old street area. We were especially impressed by the indigenous culture, which Jennifer introduced us to. The trip included a visit to the local museum, which we loved. There was time on the tour for conversation with Jennifer, but also for us to explore things on our own. We found a lovely cafe in the old street, and great food. The last part of the tour was visiting the Sun Moon Light hot springs. A beautiful facility with multiple outdoor pools with different temperatures. We loved this spot, and would have liked to stay there longer! The views of the mountains and river from the pool area are incredible. We would love to go back to this relaxing place in the future. Like Jennifer pointed out, “the mountain is always beautiful, no matter if it rains or shines”, we loved this kind of outlook and point of view in life, since the day of our tour was a drizzly winter day, nonetheless a beautiful day, with fog creeping through the mountains! Jennifer drove safely and made us feel comfortable throughout the trip. She offered to take our picture in different spots, and even drew a picture from one of the photos for us. We would love to have Jennifer guide us again in the future throughout Taiwan.
