Experiences of Maokong Aroma and tea culture

Zhinan Teak Picker Hiking Trail is an ancient trail of historical importance
for tea conveying in Taipei. Zhinan Teak Picker Hiking Trail includes
Sanxuan Temple Hiking Trail (Mucha Tea Ancient Trail), Along with Zhanghu
Hiking Trail and Feilong (flying dragon) Trail, those are three famous hiking
trails for Taipei citizen with attraction in tea, blossom and proximity. The
route offers you an access to MuZha Tourist Tea Plantation area, superior
view toward Taipei City, and Taiwan tea culture.

Located in southern Taipei, Zhinan Tea Picker Hiking Trail rests in an area
of natural beauty, rolling tea plantations, bamboo groves and rural charm.
Walking on the historic stone steps, you can recall and imagine how the
ancient people transport tea leaves downhill. Approaching the end of the
trail, you can see the newly-built cable car station that owns the longest
cable-car system in Taiwan. Total length of one ride stretches over four
kilometers. This is Taiwan’s longest cable-car system, stretching just
over four kilometers. It takes around 10 minutes for a trip
(Traveling speed: 6 meters per second).

After a short hiking, we go to the Tea Exhibition Center of Taipei City
Government (previous Taipei Tea Promotion Center for TieKuanyin Tea and
Paochung Tea) to know Taiwan local teas, tea making tools, reprocessed
products, tea-making process and slope-land conservation through a film
and narration in the T.E.C. Along the road, you can see Tung blossom in
mid April, and Taipei 101 building and the cable car station in a distant
place.

(Lunch at a cafe or teahouse.)

After the educational trip and lunch, we turn back to the intersection of
Sanxuan Temple Hiking Trail and Zhanghu Hiking Trail to continue our trip.
Zhanghu Hiking Trail begins at a corridor of Sweet Osmanthus trees, offering
a gentle climb. After a 20-minute walk, we go uphill to intersections of
Erjiaoge Mountain, Degao Peak (Dailaokeng Mountain), Erge Mountain and Yin
He Cave. You can go to Hsintien via the route to Yin He Cave. Turn right to
pass the Erjiaoge Mountain and then go down the crest line to connect Zhanghu
Hiking Trail. The trail leads to the Zhangshan Temple downhill. In mid and
late April, you can enjoy a trail of fantastic Tung blossom scattered around
the road as white snow.

At Zhangshan Temple, you can have magnificent view toward Taipei City.
It is a famous scenic spot for a spectacular view of the city lights. After
a few minutes’ break, we go downhill on the Zhangshan Temple Hiking Trail,
around 1km of stone steps. The trail resembles a flying dragon, so it is also
called Feilong, flying dragon, Trail. Walking on the narrow roads, you can
enjoy the broad view toward Taipei Basin and a never-ending stream of
vehicles on the highway. After the trail ends, we arrive National Cheng-Chi
University and then finish this nice trip.
