Don't forget your boots because two-thirds of Taiwan's terrain is mountainous
- and what mountains they are. Hundreds soar above 3000m, and well-es-
tablished hiking routes run everywhere. These are the real deal (no shops, no res-
taurants) and on remote trails you might find yourself alone for several days.
Everyone wants to tackle Yushan (

), the highest peak in Northeast Asia,
but the second highest, Snow Mountain (

), is a more scenic climb and
leads to O'Holy Ridge (

), a five-day walk on an exposed ridgeline that
never drops below 3000m.
