Mountain peak · Nantou

"Climb Jade Mountain Often said to be the tallest mountain in East Asia, at 3952 m climbing Taiwan 's Jade Mountain (or Yushan 玉山) is an epic undertaking, even for experienced hikers. The trip takes most hikers two days, although some people do manage to rush to the summit and back in one long (12-14 hour) day. Jade Mountain is a very popular hike and the number of people on the trail is limited, so it's recommended that you apply for a permit far in advance."
"If you're up for a serious hike, I recommend climbing to the summit of Jade Mountain to watch the sunrise; the trek takes about two days, the peak is nearly 4,000 meters high, and the sweeping views are spectacular." - Matthew Kepnes
