AlishanHow to Play?
Alishan is not just a mountain, but a scenic area, including the Alishan Highway, Northwest Corridor, and Tsou Cultural Tribe. Please note the following when planning your itinerary:
- It takes about 2 hours from Chiayi City to Alishan Forest National Scenic Area. It is recommended to reserve 2-4 hours in the National Scenic Area. It is recommended to arrange attractions along the way for the rest of the itinerary, so you will not spend too much time on transportation.
- For first-timers, it is recommended to prioritize Alishan National Forest Recreation Area + Alishan Highway attractions (Fenqihu Old Street, Shizhuo, Xiding Eryanping, etc.)
- If you have been to Alishan National Scenic Area, it is recommended to focus on Alishan Highway attractions, or go to surrounding attractions such as Meishan, Tefuye Ancient Trail, and Danaiku Nature Ecological Park.
- There is vehicle control in Alishan National Scenic Area. Transportation in the National Scenic Area can only rely on small trains, tour buses, or walking.
- If you want to take a small train to watch the sunrise, it is recommended to stay in the National Scenic Area the night before. The next morning, walk to Alishan Railway Station and take the Zhushan Line to Zhushan Sunrise Viewing Platform/Ogasawara Mountain Viewing Platform to watch the sunrise.
- If you don’t have to take a small train or watch the sunrise in the National Scenic Area, you can also choose other sunrise viewing spots around Alishan, or choose to stay in a scenic B in Shizhuo, Xiding, etc. on the mountainside of Alishan to watch the sunrise nearby.
- It is easy to get foggy or rain in the mountains after noon. If there are any attractions you particularly want to photograph, it is recommended to arrange them in the morning and try not to go down the mountain too late.
What month is suitable to go to Alishan?
It is suitable for all seasons. The cherry blossom season in March-April is the most popular, but pay attention to traffic control; fireflies can be seen in April-June, and maple leaves can be seen in November-January; if you want to see the spectacular sea of clouds, November-April is the most likely. No matter what season you go up the mountain, be prepared for a level colder than the flat ground.
Spring (March-May)
Cherry blossoms in full bloom
Mid-March to mid-April is the Alishan Cherry Blossom Season, which is also the time with the most people. The temperature warms up during the day, but the mountains are still cold in the morning and evening, and the perceived temperature difference is obvious.
The average temperature is about 8°C~15°C. It is recommended to wear long sleeves and trousers, and prepare a warm coat that can be put on and taken off at any time.
Summer (June-August)
Summer Resort Paradise
The temperature in Alishan in summer is significantly lower than that in the flat ground. It is a popular summer resort. Clouds and short-term rainfall often occur in the afternoon, making the forest scenery more layered.
The average temperature is about 13°C~18°C. You can wear short sleeves during the day, but it is still recommended to bring a light jacket, sunscreen and a hat. It will be cooler in the morning and evening and when it rains.
Autumn (September-November)
Maple leaves appear
The weather is stable in autumn, which is a good time to enjoy maple leaves and watch the sea of clouds. Especially from November to the spring of the following year, the spectacular sea of clouds is most likely to be seen in the morning and evening.
The average temperature is about 10°C~18°C. It is recommended to wear long sleeves and trousers with a slightly thicker jacket to cope with the rapid changes in temperature in the mountains.
Winter (December-February)
Sea of Clouds Sunrise
Winter is the golden time to watch the sea of clouds and sunrise in Alishan. It is the favorite season for photographers. It is also very suitable for stargazing when the night is clear.
The average temperature is about 5°C~10°C. The perceived temperature is low when watching the sunrise in the morning. Be sure to keep warm. Thick coats, scarves and warm inner layers are essential.

Alishan sunrise strategy
See the sunrise recommended spots
- Ogasawara Mountain Viewing Platform (360-degree Dead-Angle View)
Netizens recognize it as the best sunrise holy place with the best view. Take the Zhushan Sunrise Train to Zhushan Station and walk for about 15 minutes to reach it. The 360-degree panoramic platform allows you to capture the most complete moment of dawn.
- Zhushan Sunrise Observation Deck (Top Choice for Families and Seniors)
Take the Zhushan Sunrise Train and get off at Zhushan Station and walk for only 5 minutes. There are vendors selling hot soup and snacks around the platform, which can warm your stomach and dispel the cold while waiting for the sunrise. It is the easiest and most convenient choice for watching the sunrise.
- Duigaoyue Sunrise Platform (A Secluded Hidden Gem)
The Duigaoyue Station, which is farther away, only has trains stopping every year on New Year’s Eve, so it has become a lesser-known hidden sunrise viewing spot in the National Scenic Area, suitable for travelers who want to avoid the crowds.
(Need to walk there early)


How to take the Sunrise Train?
There are three branch lines in Alishan National Scenic Area: Zhushan Line, Shenmu Line, and Zhaoping Line. The starting point is Alishan Station. To watch the sunrise, choose the Zhushan Line.
The departure time of the Zhushan Line train will be adjusted flexibly according to the sunrise time every day. At 16:30 the day before, the official will synchronize the announcement of the next day’s train schedule on the Forest Railway Ticketing System, Alishan Station, National Scenic Area entrance and Tourist Service Center. Remember to confirm the day before!
How to buy Alishan Small Train Tickets?
- Online Ticketing: You can complete the ticket booking no later than “12:00 noon the day before departure”
- On-site Ticketing: You can purchase tickets at the 2nd floor of Alishan Station before 16:30 the day before, or try your luck by arriving early on the day of departure
Alishan Sunrise Train fare? How long will it take?
- Zhushan Line Ticket Price: Full ticket NT$150, half ticket NT$75
- Travel Time: It takes about 30 minutes one way to reach Zhushan Station, and then walk to the sunrise viewing platform
What if I can’t buy a sunrise small train ticket?

- Walking: You can walk up the mountain along the “Zhushan Sunrise Viewing Trail”, which takes about 1 hour. There are street lights on the trail, but it is recommended to travel with companions.
Alishan sunset sea of clouds strategy

See the sunset and the sea of clouds recommended spots
- Ogasawara Mountain Viewing Platform
The viewing platform with the most panoramic view in the National Scenic Area. The 360-degree panoramic design allows you to enjoy the sunset and sea of clouds, which is deeply loved by photography enthusiasts.
- Ciyun Temple Viewing Platform
Located next to the temple with the highest altitude in Taiwan, it can be reached by walking from Shenmu Station. When the weather is clear, in addition to the sunset and sea of clouds, you can also overlook the Alishan settlement and Tower Mountain, with a wide view and a quiet atmosphere.
- Alishan Railway Station, 2nd Floor
The wooden station itself is a highlight. Climb to the second-floor viewing platform to enjoy the clouds and colorful clouds in the faint aroma of wood. The atmosphere is particularly charming.
- Viewing Platform Outside the Ticket Office
Next to the entrance of the National Scenic Area, you can see the sunset and sea of clouds without walking far. In addition to the beautiful sunset and sea of clouds, during the cherry blossom season, compared to the crowded Zhaoping Park, this is a quieter secret cherry blossom viewing spot.
- Duigaoyue Sunrise Viewing Platform
A relatively unpopular hidden attraction, you can enjoy different levels of mountain scenery and sea of clouds from morning to dusk, suitable for travelers who want to avoid the crowds and quietly watch the scenery.

Frequently asked questions about Alishan chartered buses
Q: Can I charter a car to see the sunrise at Alishan?
If you want to see the sunrise within the forest recreation area, vehicles are restricted from entering the park and cannot drive directly to the observation deck. We recommend staying overnight at a hotel within the park and taking the small train/electric shuttle bus/walking along the sunrise trail early the next morning to reach the Zhushan/Ogasawara observation decks for sunrise viewing.
For other nighttime transportation services or sunrise viewing programs outside the park, please contact our customer service staff separately.
Q: What should I wear to watch the sunrise in Alishan?
Alishan is located at an elevation of approximately 2,216 meters. The mountain weather is highly variable with high humidity and significant temperature differences between day and night. For sunrise viewing, we recommend layered clothing, and even in summer, it is advisable to prepare windproof and waterproof jackets. Due to potentially slippery mountain trails, we recommend wearing non-slip, comfortable walking shoes.
Q: Will I get carsick on the chartered car up Alishan?
If you are concerned about motion sickness due to winding mountain roads, we recommend taking motion sickness medication 30-60 minutes before ascending the mountain.
Q: Can chartered cars drive directly into the restricted area?
No, Alishan park has vehicle restrictions that prohibit general vehicles from entering. If your hotel is located within the forest recreation area’s restricted zone, passengers will be dropped off at the passenger car parking lot in front of the Alishan Visitor Service Center to transfer to shuttle buses.
Q: How early should an Alishan chartered car depart?
The one-way travel times from various departure points to Alishan and recommended departure times for day tours are as follows:
