Journey on an 8-day small group adventure where you will bike, hike, and paddle your way through the treasures of Taiwan's magnificent East Coast. Led by our expert guides, this adventure is a feast for the senses, cycling from the dramatic cliffs of Taroko Gorge and the lush East Rift Valley to the villages of Hengchun Peninsula, restorative hot springs of Ruisui and the shores of Dulan. Experience Taiwan's rugged coastlines, dramatic cliffs, turquoise seas, rolling hills and tea plantations to its gastronomic gold as you explore the island's most epic scenery.
Begin your adventure in Taipei, where your initial days focus on finding your rhythm on the saddle, riding through Taroko Gorge’s white-and-green canyons. Further south, the scenery transitions from the rice paddies of the East Rift Valley to the tropical fruit orchards of Ruisui. You’ll experience unique cultural and geological milestones, including a soak in rare 'golden' iron-rich hot springs, a visit to the ancient Saoba Megaliths, and crossing the Tropic of Cancer into a lush, humid climate. The latter half of the trip emphasizes the island's coastal soul. This time, you’ll conquer the Coastal Mountain Range, with refueling stops for traditional baozi en route to Dulan. Relish opportunities to paddleboard through the Donghe River Gorge, and then descend through the scenic Hengchun Peninsula, culminating in Kenting.
This package includes 7 nights of accommodation in a blend of deluxe hotels, charming B&Bs, and serene hot spring resorts on a twin share basis.
