Chiayi CountyPlay Recommendations

Pink Cow Park in Zhongpu Township, Chiayi County, was reborn in 2023 from the twenty-year-old Green Ranch into a farm-experience parkland for families. The grounds are expansive, with animal-feeding areas, fruit orchards, DIY workshops, and outdoor play zones that include a two-storey slide, grass-sledding slope, miniature train, and a sweeping lawn. Guided tours lead guests through feeding sessions, seasonal fruit picking, goose racing, and boat rides, and the farm kitchen sells its own fresh milk, yoghurt, and milk steamed buns. Spacious and educational, it is an ideal day out for families, school groups, and anyone hunting photo-worthy corners.

Er-Jian-Shan Trail in Long-Yan Village, Meishan Township, Chiayi County, sits about 1,274 metres above sea level. The 380-metre path threads between tea fields and ridgelines with gentle grades, mostly steps and wooden boardwalks that welcome families, children, and seniors alike. A five-to-ten-minute walk brings you to the summit viewing platform, where the surrounding peaks and tea plantations stretch out in every direction; mornings often bring seas of clouds and drifting mist for photography and summer relief. The trailhead sits next to Long-Xing Temple, which offers a handful of free parking spots, with paid holiday parking around NT$100. Admission is free, making this a relaxed, low-difficulty nature trail anyone can enjoy.
