Xinxian Trail is located in Xinxian Village, Wulai District. It starts from Xinxian Suspension Bridge in the east and connects to Neidong National Forest Recreation Area in the west. Xinxian Village is the Lahaw settlement of the Atayal people, and its name is transliterated as Lahao, Luohao, Naxiao, etc., meaning dense forest. The Xinxian Trail is about 1.5 kilometers long and runs along the south bank of the upper reaches of the Nanshi River. It was originally a road connecting Fushan and Wulai. The trail is flat and easy to walk, and is shaded by trees along the way, making it a family-friendly leisure trail.
Waterfall Trail:
Xinxian Waterfall is renowned for its dense cluster of waterfalls, with ten waterfalls along the trail. From east to west, they are Shenglong Waterfall, Dadu Waterfall, Xiaochi Waterfall, Tongtian Waterfall, Qianlong Waterfall, Shiban Waterfall, Couple Waterfall, Child Waterfall, Grandma Waterfall, and Grandpa Waterfall. Each of these ten waterfalls has its own unique characteristics due to differences in terrain and water volume. Among them, Shenglong Waterfall, closest to the east entrance, is particularly spectacular. It boasts the highest height and largest water volume of any waterfall on the Xinxian Trail. Over the years, the flowing water has sculpted a magnificent waterfall landscape, attracting many people to stop and admire it, enjoying the relaxing feeling brought by the negative ions emitted by the waterfall.
Xinxian Suspension Bridge:
The Xinxian Suspension Bridge, decorated with Atayal elements, is a highlight of the upper reaches of the Nanshi River valley and the eastern entrance to the Xinxian Trail. The bridge is approximately 30 meters long and spans the Nanshi River. Walking on the bridge offers panoramic views of the valley's magnificent landscape, surrounded by mountains and forests, a truly breathtaking and invigorating experience.
