Wulai Hot Spring

Natural mineral water emerges from underground springs along the Nanshi River, reaching temperatures between 40 and 45 degrees Celsius throughout the year.

The thermal waters were first utilized by the Atayal indigenous people who discovered the springs while exploring the Nanshi River valley centuries ago.

The name Wulai originates from the Atayal word 'ulay', which local inhabitants used to identify the steam rising from the natural thermal waters.

Visitors can access the hot springs via bus 849 from Xindian MRT station, with the journey taking approximately 40 minutes through mountain roads.

The mineral-rich waters flow directly from the ground into outdoor pools positioned along the riverside, allowing bathers to experience natural thermal bathing.
