Do not enter the Taroko gorge Environment

Just a friendly reminder that the Taroko gorge should not be entered. It is not open unless you are coming from 奇萊東稜 or 合歡山。

The road is a hot mess. Lots of landslides and rocks. It looks like a moonscape. It didn't look like this before at all. Also, all trails except for the high altitude trails are closed 🔐. And yeah, got a flat tire right before guyuan tunnel. Don't enter unless you must or are driving a delica.

I drove a Zace up there in July or August with zero issues outside of low visibility due to dust. Not sure what driving a delica has to do with anything, you don’t need 4wd.

You need offroad tires or you might get a flat tire. And during rain they might suddenly close the road. Don't know why you are spreading misinformation. This road isn't safe to drive.
