Most visitors to Fenqihu come for the old street and the lunchboxes. This pleasant trail climbing to one of Chiayi's lesser-visited Taiwan 100 Minor Peaks is a short scooter ride out of town, and rewards those who venture a little further with bamboo groves, fine forest, monkey sightings, and a summit view from nearly 2,000 metres up.

FENRUI HISTORIC TRAIL (奮瑞古道)
Chiayi is truly a magical place for foreign hikers hoping to experience something distinctly different from Europe or the Americas. Mountain villages accessed by historic railways, forests made of towering bamboo and slopes clad in precision-clipped rows of tea. On Fenrui Historic Trail, it’s tick, tick, tick to all of the above.
