Paoma Historic Trail

The trail is located on the border between Pinglin District of New Taipei City and Toucheng Town and Jiaoxi Township in Yilan County, beginning from Shipai, the highest point of Beiyi Highway (around the 59km mark), running down the Houdongkengxi River Valley to the Wuqifeng Scenic Area. The total distance is about 6.7km. It can be divided into three sections: from the north end of the ancient trail (Shipai) to Shangxin Garden, about 2km; from Shangxin Garden to the north end of the ancient trail, about 3.1km, the best and most popular section; and from the south end of the ancient trail to Wufeng Road, about 1.6km. Skids and skidways in perfect condition can be seen along the trail. From the trail, the entire Jiaoxi Township and the Beiyi Highway meandering through the fields can be seen clearly.
