Baiyang Waterfall

Baiyang Waterfall, situated in Xiulin Township of Hualien County, Taiwan, is a celebrated feature within the Taroko National Park. This remarkable waterfall boasts a two-tiered cascade with a combined drop of around 200 meters. The upper tier is modest in size, with a drop of approximately 30 meters, while the lower tier presents a more dramatic descent of 170 meters.

At the base of the waterfall, a pool forms, and just beyond this pool, the second cascade begins. The Taroko National Park Administration has thoughtfully built the Baiyang Trail, which guides visitors to a viewing platform located at the confluence of Sanzhanxi and Lishu Streams. From this vantage point, one can take in a distant view of the waterfall’s splendor.

However, due to the distance and the natural constraints of the terrain, the upper cascade remains out of sight from the platform. The lower cascade, too, is partially hidden by the mountain, revealing only about two-thirds of the waterfall’s body. This partial view adds a touch of mystery, as it prevents visitors from fully appreciating the waterfall’s entirety.
