Recently, some people reported on social platforms that a lot of man-made garbage appeared on the cliffs and steep slopes around the Wuling Mountains in Hehuan Mountain. The Taroko National Park Management Office pointed out that the alpine ecological environment is very fragile, and every piece of garbage left behind may cause irreparable harm to alpine wildlife. If found to be in violation of regulations such as abandoning garbage and waste arbitrarily, the Taipei Management Office will impose sanctions and fines in accordance with the National Park Law.
The Taiguan Office pointed out that the Nantou County Mountainous Area Disaster Relief and Protection Association (Condor Search and Rescue Team) called on search and rescue teams from all over the country and gathered about a hundred team members to hold the "Hehuan Mountain Rape Down Mountain Cleaning Activity" yesterday. The Taiyuan Management Office also jointly sent personnel with the Nantou Branch of the Forestry and Nature Conservation Service of the Ministry of Agriculture to participate in the mountain cleansing operation in the Wuling area. During the event, professional search and rescue teams braved the scorching sun in the mountains, used ropes and rappelling techniques to penetrate into cliffs and slopes that were beyond the reach of ordinary people, and carefully picked up bags of long-deposited PET bottles, plastic bags and household garbage.

Wuling is located within the Hehuan Mountain Recreation Area and the Taroko National Park Recreation Area. It is an important tourist base in the Hehuan Mountain Area. During holidays, many tourists go to Wuling to watch the stars and watch the sunrise, forming a huge crowd. On the steep slopes on both sides of the road, it is common for tourists to discard garbage at will, seriously affecting the environment. The Eunuch Office pointed out that littering will not only destroy the ecological environment and beauty, but may also affect the living habits of wild animals. It urges the public to enjoy the beautiful scenery in Hehuan Mountain, and at the same time cherish nature, adhere to the "traceless mountain forest", and take the garbage down the mountain, so that Wuling can continue to welcome every traveler with a clean appearance.
The Taipei Management Office emphasized that in order to maintain the environmental quality of the national park, the conservation inspectors and the Ninth Brigade of the Seventh Conservation Corps will continue to strengthen inspections. If any violations such as dumping garbage and waste are found, the Taipei Management Office will strictly punish and impose fines in accordance with the National Park Act. In accordance with Article 13, Paragraph 6 of the National Park Act, a fine of NT$1,500 to NT$3,000 will be imposed. It calls on the Chinese to cherish the fragile alpine natural resources and work together to maintain a clean mountain forest appearance.
