Liyu Lake (鯉魚潭) is the largest inland lake in the Hualien area, named after its shape resembling a carp due to the surrounding mountains. There are various activities available around the lake, such as renting bicycles from shops near the scenic area to cycle around the lake, or experiencing stand-up paddleboarding (SUP), duck boat paddling, and electric boating on the lake in the early morning to appreciate the beautiful lake and mountain scenery in different ways.

There are also some food establishments around the lakeside where visitors can dine or enjoy snacks, and parking at the scenic area is convenient with no entrance fee, allowing visitors to stay for at least an hour or more. The lakeside trail is approximately 4 kilometers long, and there are several forest trails nearby for hiking. The nearby Yushan Theological College & Seminary Pink Trail is also a great spot for cherry blossom viewing during the blooming season.

Every year, there are some regular events held here, such as the Red-Faced Duck Water Dance and the firefly season. Visitors are encouraged to come with a leisurely mindset, leave behind the stress of time, and immerse themselves in the tranquil lakeside beauty and relaxation.
