Crisp autumn weather in October and November make these the best months for hiking on Yu-shan. Summer is not a good hiking season due to frequent typhoons and thunderstorms, and most people are unable to scale the peak in winter due to snow, unless they ’ ve had special training.
10～11 月中，秋高氣爽，最適合登頂，因為夏天容易有颱風、暴雨，不利登山；冬季主峰多下雪，一般人未經雪地訓練登不了頂，況且，每年 2 月起玉山會封山一個月，禁止登山，連行家都無法登頂。
