Summary
We all know Australia is the place for bushwalking... New Zealand has some good tracks too... but surprisingly the rest of the world has some places worth visiting too! (imaging that!) This is the place to share walks from outside of Australia/New Zealand.

Shifen Waterfall 十分瀑布 (New Taipei City)
This is not much of a hike. There is a solid concrete path and road that takes you directly from the train station at Shifen to the waterfall. The viewpoints around the waterfall are incredibly crowded and can somewhat disrupt the view. I recommend going early to beat the tourists.

Xiangshan, Elephant Mountain
A short hike through the mountains in Taipei that connect to neighbouring mountains. The hike is accessible by public transport and has good views of the Taipei skyline. There are temples along the way and some wildlife can be seen. It's amazing to go straight from city to mountains.

Anahulu Cave & Beach
A short walk on Tonga's main island Tongatapu. The walk includes a small enterance fee and will lead you into the Anahulu Cave and down to Anahulu beach. The cave has a main walkway and lighting but if your unsure on your feet you may want to bring extra light. The main attraction of the cave is that you can swim in the clear water.

Hufangalupe Natural Land Bridge, Cliffs & Beach
A nice walk to some interesting coastal features. This walk starts along the coastal section of Hala Hufangalupe road which can be driven though the road is narrow and in rough condition. By walking the coastal section of this walk it only adds about 600m total before you reach the first of the features. The first feature is Hufangalupe Lookout which is reached via a short side trail to the right and views over Hufangalupe beach (Matatahi Hufangalupe). It is possible to reach the beach if you return to the main trail and detour backwards a couple of meters there is a rough track down through the gully to the beach (add about 200m distance to this walk if detouring to beach where you will lose ~30 vertical meters down to the beach and regain ~30 vertical meters back up to the main track). After the Hufangalupe Lookout and beach you can continue along the main track and take your next right to a lookout over the Hufangalupe Land Bridge and then walk over the bridge itself and follow the track along to the Ocean Spray Cliffs. Once you have explored the cliffs follow the inland (main) track back to your car past the Hufangalupe Land Bridge and the turn off you took to walk over it and the Hufangalupe Lookout turn off.

A short walk to a pretty beach and the Tsunami Rock (The Maka Sio'ata) which is thought to be the largest piece of tsunami debris ever found. This large rock is believed to have been carried the 100m inland to where it now rests by a tsunami that hit Tonga thousands of years ago.
