Would it be possible to cover SML, Alishan and Cingjing within 3 days?

If diy, no. 2 locations 3 days. A lot of travel time wasted.
If book driver, yes.

Would be hiring a driver. Would you have any recommended itinerary?

Alishan is a big place.
Can you list what you want to cover?
Most of the attractions are by foot though.
So if three full days, you may be able to do that.

Since you hire driver, it's very easy. Just go to tripadvisor key in the place, attraction list will come out, then from there see what you like to see then add to your list. This 3 places attractions very basic one.

PS cingjing farm show only on sat and sun. Other day no show will be abit boring but still ok since the scenery very beautiful.

Thank you for the advice. Still thinking whether to drop cingjing or SML. Alishan we are hoping to be able to catch the sunrise and or sunset. Then fenqihu and the forest railway oso u der consideration

We are more into the scenic tour.

I agree with calkel. Alishan sunrise may be too foggy so not a good place for sunrise. Sunset I heard good but you need to arrage yr driver to pick you up as no public transport after sunset.
Cinjing sunrise and sunset is good, clear sky. evening lot of stars.

Zeh zeh, if you are short in time, why don't you watch the sunrise at Yangmingshan. There you can also go to Xiao You Keng, Qing Tian Gang, Leng Shui Keng and even Zhu Zi Hu if you are into flowers.

If you are staying in Taipei, going to Yangmingshan is more convenient.
