The Story Behind Our Name
"Mabu Valley is one of my favorite mountain huts," says Lin Chia-hsien. The Mabu Valley Mountain Hut sits on the saddle between Mount Masi and Mount Bugan, and reaching it means climbing steep trails and crossing dense forest. The moment you arrive, the mountains wash the effort away. That sense of calm and fulfillment is why we started this company: to help more people find their own peace through life outdoors.
