Toushe Reservoir
Toushe Reservoir is a large body of water in Nantou County, Yuchi Township, built on a mountain river and surrounded by hills and forests. The calm water reflects the sky and trees, with walking paths along the shoreline and natural greenery throughout the area.
The reservoir was built many years ago to store water for nearby farms and towns and to help control water flow in the region. The construction of the dam created a new place for people to visit while becoming an important project for local community development.
Access to the reservoir is straightforward with well-maintained roads and simple parking areas nearby. Bring sunscreen and water, especially on sunny days, as the area offers little shade and conditions can be hot without preparation.
The water here changes with weather and rainfall, becoming greener during dry periods due to algae growth. These natural changes show how important rainfall is for maintaining a healthy water system.
