體驗古道秋芒的知性之旅
每到秋冬時節,東北角草嶺古道的整片山頭便被迎風搖曳的銀白芒花妝點
得如夢似幻,不僅像海浪,更像點點白雪,點綴於蒼綠山間。佇立其中,雲
霧繚繞之時,不免讓人有如置身於仙境之感,是非常具有特色的時令景點。
10年前為扭轉東北角秋、冬兩季濕冷印象,突破旅遊瓶頸,東北角暨宜蘭
海岸國家風景區管理處特地將草嶺古道芒花資源和轄區觀光資源結合,推出
「草嶺古道芒花季」活動,近幾年每年均吸引近10萬來自國內外的遊客來此
懷古,不但打開東北角遊憩休閒的知名度,更讓原為觀光淡季的秋冬兩季,
掀起一股旅遊熱潮,為地方觀光產業帶來相當可觀的經濟效益。這段總長約
8.5公里的草嶺古道,全程步行約需2.5個小時,途中有跌死馬橋、古榕樹、仙
跡岩、客棧遺址及已列為國家三級古蹟之「虎」字碑與「雄鎮蠻煙」摩碣,
芒花 極富有歷史氣息;登臨草嶺頂,遠眺太平洋、龜山島,景色雄偉壯麗,讓人
讚嘆至極。 The Legend of the Silver Grass

─ 草嶺古道尋幽行
Miscanthus sinensis, also known as silver grass, grows in sunny-side slopes, mountains and
valleys. Every fall and winter, when the northeast wind starts to blow hard and people start
wearing warm clothes and bring umbrellas, it’s time for the silver grass to blossom all over
