If it hasn't changed, Caoling Historic Trail takes you from Fulong to Dali in about half a day. Total distance is close to 10km... :s22:

Done that in 2009/3. Nice track after half the trail. Basically, to come back from Dali side, it is local train, gonna take u quite a while to be back.


based on Wikipedia is 8.5km liao:eek:
by doing tat, u already finish 1st set of route march liao
草嶺古道 - 维基百科,自由的百科全书

Yes and somewhere u will see an ancient plaque. That is towards the end of the trail oredi. At dali, it is actually a temple, u will also see the guishan island on a clear day.

thanks for ur comments...

i dun mind waking up early... i did that to climb hallasan in korea then when i came back down it's alrdy late afternoon...

also ok with walking... as long as the scenery is worth it and possible to finish even with walking...

those waterfalls they are all on the same path so see or dun see also not much impact on timing right?
