Taroko Gorge: Lotus Lake
Lotus Lake

Nice hike, about 12 KM's round trip.  You can see a small lake up in the mountains of Taroko National Park.   Also, there is a good view point along the trail where you can see flat spots on the surrounding mountains that show where the water level once was in this area.  (Much higher elevation than the present)

The trail continues past Lotus Lake, but where it goes, I do not know.  This will be saved for a later day when the child is older, and the wife is in a better mood.
