Fuyuan National Forest Recreation Area

About

Tucked away in the Ruisui Township of Hualien, Fuyuan National Forest Recreation Area is a lush, green escape that feels a world away from the coast. This isn’t just a forest; it’s a complete nature experience. You can hike through well-maintained trails that wind through towering trees, cross suspension bridges over crystal-clear streams, and keep an eye out for the rich birdlife and butterflies that call this place home. The air is fresh and cool, and the sound of rushing water is the constant, soothing soundtrack. But the real draw here, especially after a long hike, is the hot spring. Fuyuan is famous for its natural hot springs, and the on-site bathhouse is the perfect way to soothe tired muscles. Imagine soaking in warm, mineral-rich waters surrounded by the serene forest – it’s pure bliss. The park also features scenic platforms that offer breathtaking views of the surrounding mountains and valleys. It’s a fantastic day trip from Hualien City, combining invigorating forest walks with the ultimate relaxation of a hot spring soak. *Contact: +886-3-8812377 | No. 161, Guangdong Rd., Fuyuan Vil., Ruisui Township, Hualien County*
