The trail was specifically renovated by the city to improve slope stabilization and prevent erosion in the surrounding hillside.
The route serves as a secondary connector for the larger Neihu Trail system, linking residential zones to the Daluntoushan trail network.
Bihu Trail incorporates permeable paving materials to facilitate natural water drainage during Taipei's heavy typhoon-season rains.
The path is part of a series of 'city-integrated' trails developed to promote hiking as a low-impact daily exercise for residents.
Bihu Trail is a 1.5-kilometer paved hiking path located in the Neihu District of Taipei. The trail features a moderate incline designed to provide accessible mountain trekking within an urban environment. It primarily traverses lush secondary forest, serving as a connector to the nearby Daluntoushan trail system. Wooden platforms and stone steps are integrated along the path to stabilize the terrain. Visitors can access viewpoints that overlook the Neihu Basin and the surrounding Taipei cityscape. The trail is heavily shaded by a dense canopy, maintaining cooler temperatures during the summer months. It is maintained by the Taipei City Government Geotechnical Engineering Office as part of the regional trail network.
