Definitely a great trail embraced by greenery and offering great spots along overlooking the oceans! Takes about 40 minutes to get to the top with wooden staircase for about 300 meters and afterwards there are stone steps leading up to the top. Totally 990 meters in length at the altitude of about 200 meters. Mostly under the shade of trees! At the top you will be able to enjoy the 360 degree panoramic views of the Keelung mountains and more and the ocean. The rock formations in the near distance are in the sight! There’s a well maintained toilet down the hill near the temple, so be sure you use it before you hit the road. It can be hot in summer so bring enough...
Read moreA hidden gem in the northeast shore of Taiwan! You can get here by driving for ~45 min from the Taipei City, and park your car at the free parking lot of Nanya fishing port nearby. Then find the trail entrance right across the street. The trail is less than 1 km, with limited visitors during the weekday. After reaching the end of the trail, which is the top of the hill, you will find a breathtaking 360 degree view of mountains and the Pacific Ocean! But be sure to bring water with you! I highly recommend this trail to you if you want to explore the beauty of the northeast...
Read more因為之前幾次開濱海公路造訪鄰近景點的體驗實在是太好了,所以公路兜風加上東北角的特殊的山海通吃景觀,在我心中一直都是非常吸引人的賣點。所以每到假日的時候,只要稍微晚一點出門,大概熱門景點旁的停車場都一位難求。
「南子吝步道」也完全不例於上述之外,開車過來的景色不會讓你無聊或是難受,除了公路部分路段缺少維護像是在跑拉力賽之外,東北角的公路很難給人那種「開有點久,快到了嗎?」的感受。不過停車真的是一個要思考的問題,這次選擇停在「南雅漁港」的免費停車場,這處約20個車位左右的地方,當我10點左右到達的時候,連車格外的所有可用空間幾乎都被停滿了,可見其熱門的程度。
停妥車子之後,於對向「南雅南福宮」與「南子吝小吃」中間的小巷弄進去後,經一處民宅再往右手邊方向走即可到達入口處。這邊特別提醒一下,這個步道全程皆無遮陰處,炎夏造訪時務必做好防曬以及水分補充,否則很容易中暑喔。另外,停車場對面的公路旁有間「長虹商店」,有需求的可以先在此補給後再入山。
從入口處至步道終點全長約990公尺,前段為木棧道,後段則為石階步道,剛開始沿途雖然有樹,但高度跟樹展都不夠,所以全程1公里幾乎都是在與陽光做親密接觸下完成。制高點海拔約196公尺,比起很多郊山步道來說,這真的是不怎麼高,但是最後這兩個從懸崖下眺的景色,一眼就完美收下山、海、路這三大東北角最迷人的特色。雖然天氣很熱,但在這裡靜靜看著車子一台台跑在這條被山岸與太平洋擁抱著的海岸公路,竟是如此地令人放鬆與沉澱,沒有一絲不耐。
後望群山的景色也非常夠水準,在這邊也能遠賞「苦苓嶺」與「無耳茶壺山」等山景,芒草的高度剛剛好不會遮蔽任何視線,確實就像其他遊客形容的一樣,是一個360度都有著不同景觀享受的一條步道,也難怪會如此地熱門了。
後記:
南子吝小吃提供的餐點還不錯,如果是像我一樣中午下山想用一頓便餐的話,會是一個好選擇。
南雅南福宮旁有一處公廁,不過清潔度就屬於較令人難忍受的部分,需要注意一下。
擔心停車的問題的話,建議至少9點前抵達停車場,否則應該會遇到跟我一樣的情況,需要等有人離開才有位置停。
本趟帶著快要5歲的小孩邊走邊玩,來回約需要2.5...
