Cinsbu Giant Trees

镇西堡神木群

An Atayal village across the stream from Smangus, with giant tree trails in Zones A and B. Ancient red cypress and primeval forest make a strong impression.

Cinsbu is an Atayal village in the back mountains of Jianshi at about 1,600 meters, across the Takjin Creek from Smangus. From the village, drive to the giant tree trail parking area and walk in. Zone A (with giant trees such as Adam and Eve) and Zone B each take 2-3 hours round trip. Along the way are several red cypress and hinoki cypress trees more than a thousand years old. The village has guesthouses and a campsite, good for an overnight stay. The mountain roads are as narrow and winding as the road to Smangus, so drive carefully. The giant tree trail may charge a cleaning or maintenance fee, to be confirmed on site. The coordinates mark Cinsbu village.
