Walking slowly along the ridge trail leads to other mountains, making the hike almost effortless and very convenient to access. The trailhead of the Jiantan Mountain Hiking Trail is next to the Jiantan Bus Stop on Section 4, Zhongshan North Road. This area was once a military control zone and forest reserve, so the natural forest and ecological plants are well preserved. The trail is lined with many artificially planted vegetation and economic plants, giving the trail a vibrant green charm. This trail has become a place for citizens to exercise and keep fit in the morning. For example, 'Lao Difang' (Old Place) on the ridge is a well-known fitness spot. Along the trail, you can enjoy views of the Grand Hotel, Keelung River Riverside Park, and other scenery. The end of the trail is at the intersection of Lane 165, Tongbei Street and Bei'an Road in Dazhi. It is a gentle and easy-to-walk suburban mountain trail. The night view of Jiantan Mountain is even more beautiful. The popularity of the night view of the Jiantan Mountain Hiking Trail has always been high, and it naturally has its unique charm. From the highest point, you can admire the bustling city lights at night, and occasionally planes fly low across the starry sky, which always excites hikers and becomes a topic of conversation. Combined with the delicious snacks from Shilin Night Market, visitors who come here for night hikes and walks even outnumber those during the day.
