Lisong Hot Spring is one of Taiwan's most remote and remarkable geothermal sites, located deep in the Xiuguluan River canyon in Hualien County where chloride-rich water of extreme temperature (around 98°C) erupts as a dramatic natural spring at the foot of a sheer cliff. The site, accessible only by hiking or river kayak, is entirely undeveloped and offers the raw experience of one of Taiwan's most powerful natural geothermal expressions in a pristine gorge wilderness. Its combination of extreme remoteness, dramatic canyon scenery, and powerful thermal activity makes Lisong a legendary destination among Taiwan's thermal enthusiasts and outdoor adventurers.
