Are permits needed for Qilai South Peak and Mt. Nanhua?
Modifiers Date：2019/04/01
Released by：Taroko National Park Headquarters
Mt. Nanhua is outside the premises of Taroko National Park and so a Park Access Permit is not required. However, a Mountain Access Permit must be obtained in advance.
Mt. Qilai South Peak lies within the premises of Taroko National Park and so a Park Access Permit, in addition to a Mountain Access Permit, are both required.
Please note that lodging for this route (Tianchi Cabin) is normally done by a lottery process through the National Forestry Bureau: https://tconline.forest.gov.tw/
