Shuiniukeng (aka Linkou Grand Canyon or Water Buffalo Valley) is one of the few off-roading areas around Taipei. If you have a 4x4, truck, or dirt bike, this could be a fun place to test out your off-road vehicle. Also you can sometimes spot cows grazing here.
Background: Shuiniukeng is so named because sometimes cows are left here to pasture. Originally the area was a hillside, pushed out of the ocean over thousands of years. Later, illegal gravel companies came here to harvest gravel, creating a giant hole in the hillside, making the current landscape we see today. Later the area became popular with instagrammers and off-road enthusiasts, and cows still come to graze here occasionally. Price: Free Hours: 24/7 How to get there: By Car: By car, you must come northbound on expressway 61 and turn right on the small road that leads to the area from the south. To get back, you have to pass under the highway and then turn south on expressway 61. By public transport: There is no way to get there by public transport except by walking from Linkou. Map: Please see below: Our Journey: I have only been to Shuiniukeng once after passing by it many times on expressway 61.
