Shuangliu Forest Recreation Area

Shuangliu Forest stretches across 1.6 square kilometers between elevations of 175 to 650 meters, featuring dense tropical rainforest and a 25-meter waterfall.

The region maintains strong connections to its indigenous heritage through the Paiwan people, who established the first settlements using materials from the surrounding forest.

Local communities organize regular environmental education programs to share knowledge about forest conservation and sustainable practices with visitors throughout the year.

Visitors can reach the recreation area by taking a train to Fangliao Station, followed by bus 1778 to Shuangliu stop and a 15-minute walk.

The forest houses 140 butterfly species and 77 bird species, including the Taiwan blue magpie and crested serpent eagle within its varied ecosystem.
