The closest night market area to Elephant Mountain is the Tonghua Night Market (通化夜市, nearby Linjiang Street)[1]. To reach this night market from the base of the mountain, walk west for 25-30 minutes on Xinyi Road (信義路) and make a left turn onto Tonghua Street (通化街). Alternatively, take the MRT red line 2 stops to Xinyi Anhe (信義安和) station.
At the base of the trail and the edge of the park is a YouBike station, a public bicycle rental system[2] that is easily rentable using an Easycard[3].
From Elephant Mountain (Xiangshan), you can easily continue on to Tiger Mountain and 9-5 Peak, two renowned trails in Taipei City.
