  1. The Program Day Hike

    Picked up in Taipei at your hotel after breakfast (on your own) for a 40-minute drive to the Northeastern side of Taiwan, ending at the old gold mining town of Jinguashi. This town, although much less popular than neighboring Jiufen, is known for the Gold Ecological Park. To avoid the crowds and begin our hike, we will take the longer route up Banping mountain for our first ascent. With a clear day we will get 360 views of the Yeliu coastline, Teapot Mountain, Keelung Mountain and if we are lucky, Yangmingshan far in the distance.

    After a quick lunch break at the top we continue on to peak number two, Cuanguangliao mountain. After scaling this quick, semi-treacherous peak we will continue on the ridge lines towards Teapot Mountain.

    Believe it or not, this mountain peak actually looks like a teapot! Once here we will descend down the cave and back towards Jinguashi.
