The Ida Shao Lakeside Trail is a gentle and easy walk, with the first part of the wooden pallet elevated on the surface of Sun Moon Lake, and the second part leading through the forest to the Butterfly Garden and Youth Activity Center. This is the best place to take a walk in the early morning, in the dim light, watching the light mist on the surface of the lake, and enjoying the unique quiet time of Sun Moon Lake. The trail is 2.4 kilometers long and runs between Ida Shao Pier and Sun Moon Lake Cable Car Station. After entering through the entrance next to the Chunghwa Telecom Sun Moon Lake Building, the trail slowly leaves the bustling market streets behind and passes through a wooden pallet surrounded by dense trees, where you will see the quiet and clear Sun Moon Lake appearing in front of you, its turquoise water sparkling under the sunlight, attracting the eyes of travelers.
