In response to overwhelming public interest, the Taitung County Government’s “Taiwan Cycling Trail – Join the Ride” program, featuring five bus-and-bike tour routes, will continue until February 28. The tours include Scenic Mountain and Sea Tour of Taitung, Classic Rural Dragon Field Tour, Town Loop Ride in Guanshan, Rice Fields of Chianbei in Chishang, and Blue Sea and Sky in Chenggong. Each route requires a minimum of 10 participants to depart, and costs just NT$555 per person for a full day of exploring Taitung.

The bus-and-bike tours are generally offered twice on weekdays and three times on weekends. Each of the five routes is themed to guide participants on bike rides to visit sugar refineries, art villages, old Japanese dormitories, Guanshan Water Park, Chishang Old Street, Brown Highway, and Sanxiantai. In addition to enjoying the unique local scenery, some routes include lunch at restaurants selected through group meal PK competitions, where you can savor local specialties. Moreover, participants will receive a complimentary “Taitung Card,” which offers discounts at approximately 400 eateries and attractions across Taitung.

 

The NT$555 registration fee covers accident insurance, lunch, bike rental, guided stops, entrance fees, or experience activities. Registration is available by phone, email, online, or in person. Each route will run with a minimum of 10 participants, with a maximum of 40 people per bus.
