Excursion à vélo d’une journée de Comté de Taoyuan à Daxi

Hop on your bike in Taoyuan District, a bustling city just southwest of Taipei known for its vibrant night markets and as a travel hub connecting to Taiwan Taoyuan International Airport. This route rolls south toward Daxi, a charming old township famous for its Baroque-style streets, vibrant tofu shops, and riverside scenery.

The ride’s about 25 km—just right for an adventurous morning or an easy-going afternoon. Most of the journey coasts along quiet roads and dedicated cycleways, so you can enjoy the countryside and skip the traffic stress. Expect a couple of gentle climbs and descents as you skirt past tea fields and small villages, with the highest point around 128 meters—nothing too demanding, but enough to stretch the legs.

Surface-wise, you’ll mainly stick to smooth asphalt, although a good chunk of the route’s info is missing, so keep an eye out for the occasional rough patch. Once you roll into Daxi, reward yourself with a stroll down the historic streets or grab a snack by the river—perfect way to wrap up a great ride!
