Dongshih Forest spans a vast 225 hectares, with rich forest cover and an elevation between 500 and 700 meters. It enjoys mild winters and cool summers, and its scenery changes with the seasons, earning it the nickname “the Yangmingshan of the east.” Operated by the Changhua County Farmers’ Association, the forest combines flower-viewing, bird-watching, firefly-spotting, natural forest bathing, and the nation’s largest mountain training course. Guided by the philosophy of “warmth and nature,” Dongshih Forest has become a premier eco-tourism destination in central Taiwan and an ideal choice for visitors to Taichung. Trained interpreters offer lively, engaging tours that give guests a wealth of ecological knowledge while they explore, and the forest is dotted with plant identification signs, making it a perfect place to stroll and learn about the local flora.
