Itinerary description
Take the MRT to Jiantan, get out at Exit 1 and go around the corner to your left to see the bus stops. Take the R5 and get of the last stop at Yangmingshan bus terminal. It's another 10-15min walk to the Nationalpark visitor center where the hike starts, just follow the signs.
We finished the hike at Xiaoyoukeng and took the 108 back to the Yangmingshan bus terminal and then headed back to the MRT with the R5.
It was a Saturday afternoon when we finished the hike and the bus stops where hopelessly crowded. The 108 is just a small mini bus and goes the whole loop around the park. We where lucky to get in at our stop after one already passed being too full. Ours also had to skip all other stops where we could see more than a couple of bus loads of people waiting to get back.
If you get there at a busy time take the 108 first to start your hike and make your way back to finish at the Yangmingshan park center/bus terminal to avoid this.
