Shanshuilu Eco Park, Ecological park in Nangang District, Taiwan
Shanshuilu Eco Park is an ecological preserve in Nangang featuring multiple wooden walkways that wind through diverse landscapes, observation decks, and educational facilities. The grounds include several distinct ecosystems and visitor areas across the entire site.
The site originally functioned as a landfill for Taipei before undergoing comprehensive restoration work. It reopened in 2011 as an ecological park after environmental remediation was completed.
The name reflects the historical presence of wild boars in the surrounding valleys, commemorated through stone sculptures along the slope. This connection to local nature remains visible throughout the grounds.
The park opens daily from 6:00 to 22:00 and offers multiple access points with varying walking routes. Wear sturdy shoes and allow plenty of time to explore, as the trails have different difficulty levels.
The park features an innovative energy demonstration area with solar and wind power systems set within the restored natural landscape. This combination of technology and nature shows how renewable energy can be integrated into protected environments.
