A Scenic Urban Escape on the Four Beasts Mountain Trail

#chinatravel Hiking the Four Beasts Mountain Trail (四獸山步道) was a perfect mix of nature and city views. The trail is super accessible and starts not far from the Taipei 101 area, making it an easy choice for a quick outdoor adventure. The path winds through Elephant, Tiger, Leopard, and Lion Mountains, each offering slightly different vibes and viewpoints.

The climb is mostly stairs, but it’s manageable and the payoff is amazing. You get sweeping views of the city, especially the iconic Taipei 101, which looks great during sunset or at night when the city lights up. There are also rest spots and small pavilions where you can chill and take in the scenery.

It is a great trail for beginners, tourists, or anyone needing a nature break without leaving the city. Definitely worth checking out if you're in Taipei.
