It's Taiwan summer! Too hot and humid to move? To beat the heat, here some photos from our several river tracing/hiking activities. The trips relate to rivers in Nanau ( East Coast ), Se Ma Ku Se ( Hsinchu County ) and along No.7 northern cross island highway.
It is really cool in any sense of the word. Have a look at the photos in the photo album.
Advise:
For your own safety pleaseconsider to use
- special shoes ( about 400 NTD, in fishing and some hiking shops ) - a must have
- safety helmet
- swimming vest
- long rope comes in handy when crossing streams with strong currents
Do not go in rainy weather as rivers swell almost instantly!
