Mount Qixing in the hills above Taipei

From the Mount Qixing car park, climb to the summit to discover the views over the city of Taipei. There is no risk of getting lost, as the hike is on stairs from start to finish. You may see lizards of different colours (I also spotted a snake). The hike is in the shade for 80% of the route. The route is well signposted from the car park.
