Night Flying Squirrel

In the dark, you may not meet a flying squirrel. But you will start to understand the forest it lives in.

At 8 in the evening, leave from the Feishu Bukee camp base.

Board a 9-seat shared vehicle, go into the mountains, then walk slowly along the hunting path with a flashlight.

The hunter shows the tree species where flying squirrels are active, the clues the night forest leaves, and how to judge an animal’s place from sound, plants, and the surroundings.

This is not a zoo, and it is not a show that guarantees a flying squirrel. What you explore is how people, animals, and trees live together in the mountains.

• Depart at 20:00
• About 1.5–2 hours
• Up to 8 people
• NT$250 per person

After the forest goes dark, many things start to be seen

The trees you walked past in daylight become another kind of forest at night.

The flashlight does not show only flying squirrels. It may show a stretch of hunting path, a tree suited to roosting, a sound in the forest, or the way a hunter reads the surroundings to judge where an animal is.

Tonight is not about seeing a set number of animals. What you take back is the start of knowing how to look, how to listen, and how to respect the other lives in the forest.

Before the night walk, learn how to enter the forest

Meet at 20:00 at the Feishu Bukee camp base. The route, flashlights, and night-observation rules are explained first.

• Briefing
• Tonight’s route
• How to walk at night
• Using a flashlight
• Safety reminders
• Wildlife observation rules

Board the shared vehicle and go into the mountains

From Feishu Bukee to the night-exploration entrance: about 4 km one way, 8 km round trip. A standard group of 8 shares one V9.

• Feishu Bukee camp base
• Night-exploration entrance
• 8 km round-trip share

Turn off the city’s noise and start walking

About 1 km one way and 2 km round trip, along a safe hunting path, learning tree species, habitat, night sounds, and how hunting observation works.

• Hunting path
• Tree species where flying squirrels are active
• Canopy and habitat
• Night sounds
• Hunting observation
• Flying squirrels and trees
• Mountain culture

If you meet a flying squirrel

Watch as the hunter directs. Not every session is guaranteed a sighting.

Take the forest you saw tonight back with you

Return to Feishu Bukee around 21:30–22:00. What did you notice in the forest tonight?

• Return to Feishu Bukee
• 3–5 minutes to close
• The trip ends

The wild has no fixed script

Flying squirrels are wild animals. Whether you can observe them depends on weather, season, their activity, and the forest.

A flying squirrel is not guaranteed every time. “No flying squirrel seen” is still a completed Experience.

Success is not how many flying squirrels you see. It is completing the night-forest exploration, the local hunter’s cultural guidance, taking part in ecological knowledge, a safe night walk, and low-carbon travel by walking and sharing a ride.

• Do not feed
• Do not capture
• Do not touch
• Do not chase
• Do not leave the safe route for a photo
• When wildlife is found, watch as the hunter directs
• Avoid shining a strong light on an animal for a long time

Each night walk may include meeting a flying squirrel, and it also leaves movement, place, and cultural results that can keep being recorded.

Do you want to walk into the sbunaw forest at night?

If you want a night that does not guarantee an animal, but does mean setting aside the city’s noise beyond the flashlight and walking a hunting path with a hunter, Night Flying Squirrel starts with a small group.
