Suitable for hiking, beautiful! In summer, young people can often see diving and swimming in the mountains. It is recommended to bring your own sandwiches and other lunches, and there are many cafes and picnic areas on the mountain. It should be natural to get there.

Grouse Mountain is a perfect natural landscape. In summer, you can enjoy the green landscape of the mountains and the wild. In winter, it is also a good place for skiing. The Grouse Mountain tour bus can go directly to the sightseeing point on the top of the mountain. The lake is also a clear resource.

Cliffwalk

Natural scenery

The plank road is a must-see attraction for visiting the suspension bridge park. In fact, there is no danger. It is okay to fear heights like me. The scenery here on the plank road is super good, there are mountains and waters green, and the scenery is pleasant.
