Ecotourism Australia Hosts Taiwan Forest Bureau Study Tour
Forests represent some of Taiwan's most valuable natural resources and occupy about 58% of Taiwan’s total area. The Forestry Bureau under the Council of Agriculture, Executive Yuan, manages Taiwan's forests for recreation by domestic and international visitors, as well as explains the government's forest conservation policies. The Bureau maintains various forest recreation areas, hiking trails and other forest-related facilities throughout the island, and not surprisingly is looking to ecotourism to further develop the island’s resources.
