#097 – Mt. Penju 盆駒山 – 3,030m

A side trip from the mighty Mt. Mabolasi, Mt. Penju (盆駒山) is surrounded by lush grass prairies and deer ponds.

Due to its extreme isolated location, hikers will need at least four days to get to this peak, which is typically done as part of the infamously long and difficult Mabolasi Traverse (馬博橫斷).

For fit hikers who are able to make the trip to this peak, there is a very good chance of finding the antlers of a Taiwanese Sambar Deer, in the sprawling prairies surrounding the peak.
