Elephant Mountain (台北象山步道) - Spectral Codex
台北象山步道

The most iconic hike in Taipei is worth every step. Head up to the Six Rocks (象山六巨石) for an awesome view of the city and keep going a little further to the observation deck just beyond. The trail is lit at night so you can hike at all hours, but watch out for snakes!

I am a web application developer, photojournalist, urban explorer, and history enthusiast passionate about the open web and documenting my experiences on this planet. This project was founded in the early 2010s and has evolved into a sort of personal Wikipedia of places that interest me (and often the photographs I’ve taken there). I’m originally from Toronto, Canada, but spend most of my time residing in Taiwan.
