The water level of Sun Moon Lake continues to drop, and the most beautiful water bicycle path in the lake area is no match for the water situation. The "water" bicycle path has "leaved the water and landed".

[Reporter Liu Binquan/Report from Nantou] Sun Moon Lake has recently cooperated with downstream agricultural water use, so the water level has continued to drop. "Ashore from the water", the grass rafts that prevent the waves from hitting the shore also hit the land and ran aground, making the most beautiful bicycle path landscape a little more melancholy.

The management office of Sun Moon Lake Scenic Area stated that in the dry season, the water storage in the lake area is “out of reach” in order to supply agricultural water, causing the water level to continue to drop. The function of the facilities is not affected. As for the grass rafts to prevent the waves from hitting the shore, they are also stranded at the bottom of the pool. After the water level rises, they will be adjusted to an appropriate position to ensure that the function of resisting the waves will not be affected.

In the future, we will also closely observe the water level in the pond area and propose countermeasures. For example, for the four major public wharf facilities, we will gradually tow away the floating rafts that are about to run aground in recent days, so as to avoid the floating rafts breaking when they touch the land. Install anti-slip strips to ensure the safety of tourists on board.

Long drought and no rain, Sun Moon Lake was exposed in February on the water bike lane in the lake area, but the water level of the lane still remained at a certain level.
