To reach Ta Ba Mountain, the visitor must go to Hsinchu city first, take a bus to Chutung, and then a lumber-carrying train to the entrance at Madalahsi. The rest of the way to the "Ninety-nine" hostel must be covered by walking. The visitors remain here for a night and supply themselves with things necessary.
