All trails within the Taroko National Park Ecological Protection Area and other controlled zones officially reopened (except Zhuilu Old Road) from 12:00, 31 July 2023.

Basis: Article 19 of the National Parks Law / Natural Disasters Prevention Act.

1. Routes reopened:
Qilai (Main/North Peak, Range from North to South Peaks, South Peak, East Ridge); 
Nanhu (out-and-back to Nanhu Cabin, North Section 1); 
North Section 2 (the Ghost Gate cliff) (Y-route, Mt. Shuan/Mt. Lingming, Mt. Shuan Day Ascent); 
North Sections 1 and 2 traverse(South to North);  
Bilu-Yangtou Traverse (Mt. Bilu Day Ascent, Mt. Yangtou Day Ascent, Bilu-Yangtou traverse); 
Mt. Qingshui;
Other non-traditional routes.

2.Currently, Zhuilu Old Road is closed due to the stream has not receded near the trail, and as a result, fallen trees at this location need to be cleared. The re-opening time will be announced.

3.Due to the persisting low pressure circumfluence above Taiwan's mountain areas from Typhoon Bailu, areas with steep slopes are particularly prone to landslides and collapse immediately after a natural disaster (e.g. earthquake, typhoon). Please pay special attention to your surrounding conditions (e.g. rockfall, felling wood, loose or collapsed ground, flood-prone areas) and err on the side of caution.
