Taroko National Park's recreation service stations and all trails remain closed. Please refer to website notice for opening hours.

This part of Taroko Gorge is composed of marble cliff faces covered with small holes, the result of long-term erosion by river and ground water. House swifts and Pacific swallows often forage and nest here, giving the place its name.
