Xiluandashan, Mountain summit in Xinyi Township, Taiwan

Xiluanda Mountain rises to 3,081 meters above sea level and features steep ascents through dense bamboo forests along a 14.8-kilometer hiking trail.

The first recorded climb occurred in 1908 during a forest resource survey led by Ito Taemon, marking the beginning of documented exploration.

The former Renlun Work Station, situated at kilometer 37.6 of the trail, served as an administrative center for Taiwan's timber industry until 1983.

The hiking route requires advance registration and deposit payment, with final payment collected upon group formation, eliminating the lottery system since May 2023.

The mountain earned the nickname 'Knee-Weakening Mountain' due to its continuous steep ascents and descents that challenge hikers' leg strength.
