Mountains in Taiwan:
Hehuanshan
I think it's smart to wear layers. The weather can change quick! I was freezing in the morning but by noon it felt like summer, so you're gonna wanna be prepared for anything
I recommend starting your hike around 6 AM. The early morning views are stunning, and you’ll avoid the bigger crowds and midday heat. Plus, sunrise up here is just magical!
Xueshan
My advice is to bring layers. The weather changes fast up there! I was freezing in the morning but baking by noon. A light jacket and some breathable layers made my trek so much better.
I recommend starting your hike early, like around 6 AM, to catch the sunrise. It’s stunning and you avoid the crowds and heat later in the day. Plus, it's a more peaceful experience up there!
Ape Hill
My advice is to wear sturdy shoes! The trail can get a bit slippery, especially after rain; I regretted my choice of flip-flops halfway up.
