The 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, running 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 Group Trail
Xinxian Waterfall is famous for its high density of waterfalls. There are ten waterfalls along the trail, from east to west: Shenglong Waterfall, Dadu Waterfall, Xiaochi Waterfall, Tongtian Waterfall, Qianlong Waterfall, Shiban Waterfall, Couple Waterfall, Xiaohai Waterfall, Popo Waterfall, and Gonggong Waterfall. These ten waterfalls have their own characteristics due to differences in terrain and water volume.
Among them, Shenglong Waterfall, closest to the east entrance, is particularly spectacular. Its height and water volume are the highest on the Xinxian Trail. Years of water flow have sculpted a magnificent waterfall landscape, attracting many to stop and admire it, enjoying the relaxing feeling brought by the negative ions emitted by the waterfall. The Xinxian Suspension Bridge, decorated with Atayal elements, is a highlight of the upper reaches of the Nanshi River valley and the east entrance to the Xinxian Trail. The suspension bridge is approximately 30 meters long and spans the Nanshi River. Walking on the bridge, one can enjoy panoramic views of the valley's magnificent terrain, surrounded by mountains and forests, a truly pleasant and refreshing experience.
