Xinliao Waterfall

新寮瀑布

A multi-tiered waterfall in the mountains of Dongshan Township. The trail is short and easy, and the suspension bridge and viewing platform are photo spots. It is good for a half-day of light hiking.

Xinliao Waterfall lies in the southeastern mountains of Dongshan Township. The trail built along the stream is about 1.2 km one way. It takes 20 to 30 minutes to reach the main falls. Along the way are a suspension bridge and viewing platforms. The waterfall cascades down the rock wall in several tiers, and the sound of the water is loud. The trail is gentle and shaded, which makes it suitable for older adults and children. Entry is free, and the parking lot is at the trailhead. It can be combined with Meihua Lake and Renshan Botanical Garden. The water flow is at its strongest after rain. Typhoons and heavy rain may close the trail, so check announcements before setting out.
