Quick ride by bicycle from Taoyuan to Taoyuan District

This quick cycling route takes you from central Taoyuan to the neighboring Taoyuan District—essentially weaving you deeper into one of northern Taiwan’s most vibrant urban areas. It’s a mellow and mostly flat 3.7 km ride, perfect for unwinding or a short commute, with only gentle ups and downs (less than 30 meters of climbing).

You’ll enjoy smooth cruising on quiet roads for most of the journey (over 70%—so it’s not busy city arterials), with well-paved asphalt surfaces guiding your way. Keep an eye out for a couple of access roads, but otherwise, it should feel pretty relaxed.

Taoyuan itself is known for its mix of historic charm and modern conveniences, acting as a gateway to both the capital and Taiwan’s scenic west coast. As you ride into Taoyuan District, you’re entering the very heart of commerce, shopping, and great local eats. Whether you’re heading for some amazing Taiwanese street food or just enjoying the scenery, this is a laidback, city-friendly ride for any level of cyclist.
