"The total length of the Shakadang Trail is 4.5 kilometers. A round trip takes about three and a half hours. The trail is located next to Yayung Skadang. It is a semi-tunnel-shaped trail carved into the cliff, slowly ascending along Shakadang. The valley walls on both sides have unique strips or lumps of marble texture formed by the movement and extrusion of the earth's crust. The blue stream water rendered by the release of calcium carbonate from the marble creates a natural landscape stone mural. Along the way, there are many large rocks with multi-layered textures and various colors. Meanwhile, there are multiple plants, such as ferns and algae, as well as steep and beautiful canyons. There are many viewing platforms and interpretive signs along the Shakadang Trail, and most of the trails stretch among the woods. It is refreshing when walking by the gurgling stream. It is a good place for the whole family to escape the summer heat and go hiking. "
