Hubaotan Pond

Hubaotan Pond is located near Taiping Elementary School and is the source of the northern branch of the Beishi River. Two hills by the pond resemble a fierce tiger and a cloud leopard, hence its name Hubaotan. It also has a beautiful nickname, 'Little Jiuzhaigou of Northern Taiwan'. Not only is the mountain forest scenery beautiful, but in autumn, you can also admire the silvergrass blooming across the mountains and valleys. The deep, dark green waters of the pond reflect the surrounding mountains and tree shadows. A scenic circular trail has also been planned along the foothills next to the pond. In autumn, visitors can also enjoy the silvergrass covering the mountains and valleys.
