The trail passes by the Lukai Tribe in more cases, which are from the same family of the Paiwan Tribe, as they share the same language, culture and customs. They live in stone roof houses which, under the sunshine, reflect in dark black color. The stone lab alleys and the stone piles on both sides make one feel happy when waling through. The Lukai people needed no nails or poles to build houses out of the irregular stones and plates in order is something worth admiring.
The sectors near the Central Cordillera are full of dark trees covered with flannel-like moss. After the forest, one would see bluegrass. After crossing the ridge trail, the slope turns slow and not after an effort-consuming trip, one would reach flat roads. The tranquil and green waters of the Large and Little Guihu are surrounded by dense forests, which, amid fog, gives an additional scary touch.
