Taoshan, Mountain summit in Hsinchu County, Taiwan.

Tao Mountain rises to 3,325 meters above sea level, featuring dense forest coverage and multiple hiking trails leading to its peak point.

The mountain received its name from the Atayal indigenous people who called it B'bu Qba, meaning fist hill in their native language.

Local communities maintain several traditional practices around Tao Mountain, including seasonal celebrations and environmental protection initiatives.

Hikers need to obtain permits and carry adequate supplies when planning expeditions, as weather conditions can change rapidly at higher elevations.

The mountain serves as a natural border between three different administrative regions: Jianshi Ridge, Hsinchu County, and Taichung City.
