Nanhu Mountain, Mountain summit in Taroko National Park, Taiwan.

The mountain terrain contains numerous glacial formations that provide evidence of geological transformations throughout different climate periods in Taiwan's history.

The mountain trails incorporate structured rest stations and cabins, reflecting Taiwan's systematic approach to maintaining natural recreation spaces.
