Our plans for CNY have just fallen through, so we’re now hurriedly trying to come up with something! Is it likely that we could just turn up at the campsite during CNY (probably on Sunday or Monday)? I can’t find an email or phone number to get in contact in advance, so if anyone could help out, I’d appreciate it. Or, if you have some ideas for a cheap, last minute get away, free free to throw them in too! Thanks, Louise ---

I camped at sun moon lake in october. Very nice, however the owner warned us - on weekends book in advance, I guess that that’s the case during CNY too. Note that you are in the mountains, so it might be a bit chilly. I think there’s some info in the camping sticky. ---

Camping at SunMoon Lake sounds great. Beautiful place indeed. However, my only concern would be the lack of peace and tranquility over this period, with the fireworks and all. I understand it’s all part of the celebrations and so on, but really! :help: ---

Go to the deep deep mountains, you might find peace there. Perhaps camping on the road between Taigang and Smangus? ---

Here’s the number: 049 285 0559 [www.rock-camp.com.tw](http://www.rock-camp.com.tw) Sun Moon Lake is going to have a hot spring resort soon (they dug down for the water) and a cable car to the Aboriginal Cultural Village. Should be fine views from the cable car. But last time I was there megaphone tour groups were walking around annoying every else. When the Chinese start coming to Taiwan in numbers SML’s days are over.
