Frequently Asked Questions

Visitors can expect well-maintained forest trails, scenic waterfalls, and seasonal autumn foliage in a tranquil mountain setting near Taipei.
The entry ticket grants access to the main forest trails, the Manyueyuan Waterfall viewing platform, and the Virgin Waterfall area. It does not include guided tours, meals, or transportation to the park.
Most visitors spend between three to four hours completing the main loop that connects the Manyueyuan Waterfall and Virgin Waterfall. Adding time for rest stops or photography can extend the visit to a full half-day.
The paths consist of paved sections, stone steps, and wooden boardwalks that become quite steep and slippery near the waterfall viewpoints. Hikers should expect a moderate physical exertion level with significant elevation changes.
You can take a train to Yingge or Sanxia station and then transfer to the Taipei Bus 807, which stops near the park entrance. Alternatively, taking a taxi from Sanxia Old Street takes approximately twenty minutes.
The recreation area is not stroller-friendly due to the numerous steep stone staircases, uneven root-covered paths, and narrow wooden bridges. It is better suited for older children and adults who can navigate rugged terrain on foot.
The park lacks wheelchair accessibility as the routes to the primary waterfalls require navigating hundreds of steep, uneven stone steps. There are no paved, ramped alternatives to reach the main scenic viewpoints.
Late November through December is the peak season for viewing the park's vibrant maple and sweetgum trees turning red and yellow. Spring is also popular for the lush green canopy and strong waterfall flow from seasonal rains.
Visitors should bring leech socks or tuck long pants into socks, as terrestrial leeches are common on the damp forest floor after rain. Waterproof hiking shoes with strong grip and insect repellent are also highly recommended.
Electronic tickets purchased through the official forestry platform are typically valid for a single entry on the specific date selected during checkout. They cannot be refunded or exchanged if you miss your chosen date due to personal schedule changes.
There is a small visitor center near the entrance that sells basic snacks and drinks, but no full-service restaurants exist inside the park. Visitors are advised to bring their own water and picnic food, ensuring they carry all trash back out.

Plan 3-4 hours to fully enjoy the forest trails and scenic viewpoints. A half-day visit allows time for hiking, photography, and relaxation.
Manyueyuan National Forest Recreation Area is located in the Sanxia District of New Taipei City and is accessed via narrow, winding mountain roads that require careful driving. Visitors should be aware that terrestrial leeches are common on the forest trails, especially during the wet season, making closed-toe shoes and long socks highly recommended. An admission ticket is required for entry and can be purchased at the gate or via the official forestry website.

Full Moon Circle Forest Recreation Area is located in the southeast of Sanxia Township in Taipei County. Because of the special natural conditions here, many streams and waterfalls have formed in the park, which is magnificent and is a forest bathing place with many forests and waterfalls in the suburbs of Taipei.
