Maokong Wandering - A Perfect Combination of Trails, Beautiful Scenery and Tea Fragrance

Maokong is not only a famous tea town in Taipei, but also has many scenic hiking trails with fresh air, making it a great place for a relaxing hike in the mountains. There are also many cafes, teahouses, and snack stands where people can enjoy the scenery while tasting good tea and local delicacies.

It’s easy to get there, taking the Cat Cable Car is the most convenient!
It is recommended to take the Maokong Gondola up the mountain on holidays to save the trouble of finding a parking space, and you can also overlook the Taipei city view along the way. Even if the cable car is temporarily closed like today, it does not affect the good mood of walking, because there are many trails to explore around Maokong.

Take a walk on the trail and discover a cute little surprise
Walking along the perimeter of Maokong, you will find many cat-shaped sculptures, which are super cute and add to the fun of your journey. In addition, the cherry blossoms are in full bloom recently, and pink petals can be seen falling in the wind from time to time, adding a more romantic atmosphere to the mountains and forests.

Food and cafes, enjoy the view while eating
There are many tea gardens and cafes here, which is a good place to find a favorite corner, leisurely drink a cup of tea, and quietly enjoy the beautiful mountain scenery. However, some shops may not be open on weekdays, so it is recommended to come on holidays when it will be more lively!
