List of mountains in Taiwan

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Taiwan is known for its mountainous regions and many Taiwanese people take advantage of it by participating in mountain climbing all over the island. In 1971 a list got created with one hundred mountains (Chinese:百岳排行) that the most avid mountain climbers vow to conquer and it is considered the holy grail of mountain climbing in Taiwan. Anyone who finishes climbing all one hundred mountains garners great respect from fellow mountain climbers.
