How child-friendly would the walk between the road and the river be for boys 9-10 years old? If it’s just a bit steep (= tiring) that’s fine…. if it’s too treacherous their mother might not be too keen!

The next week, I returned to this trail and it turned out to be a really fun three hour ascent up to 尖山 (Jian Shan). The mountain is 1850 meters high and doesn't provide spectacular views, but the trail is a bit treacherous at points and you feel quite accomplished when you make it to the top.

If you guys ever make it out that way let me know. Not to many avid hiker friends over here in Taoyuan.

I did the East Coast Bike Ride with them and have my own group called “Hiking and Riding in Taipei”. We are a lot more laid back though.
