Dawu Mountain Nature Reserve, located at the southern end of Taiwan’s Central Mountain Range, features steep cliffs on both its east and west sides, forming a rectangular landmass surrounded by precipices, creating an independent system
The area boasts significant variations in elevation and water system gradients, with intense erosion and cutting actions in the upper reaches of rivers, resulting in numerous waterfalls, potholes, rapids, and lakes

This region is remote and poorly accessible, being one of the few areas in the local region without roads passing through, and thus has a low degree of human impact
The original forest is well-preserved, with a rich variety of wildlife and higher populations compared to other areas
Ecologically, it is quite intact and one of the areas worth preserving
The reserve is open all year round, with 24-hour access
