Sun Moon Lake Pier Closures Loom as Water Levels Fall
Posted on 2026-03-12 19:53:14
Officials warn that Sun Moon Lake boat services and pier operations may be suspended if water levels fall below 740 meters.
The Sun Moon Lake National Scenic Area Headquarters says the reservoir's water level is just over 67 percent — about five and a half meters below full capacity.
According to the headquarters, recent dry weather in the mountains and ongoing agricultural irrigation downstream have caused levels to steadily decline.
To maintain visitor safety, authorities have already moved a floating platform at the Chaowu Pier to a deeper area and closed part of the dock.
