Bikepacking z Tajpej do Chang-hua

Here’s a great long ride for anyone who wants to see the heart of western Taiwan: biking from Taipei all the way down to Changhua! You’ll start in the energetic capital, famous for its vibrant night markets, delicious street food, and Taipei 101 poking up above the skyline. As you leave the city behind, you’ll enjoy plenty of quiet roads and purpose-built cycleways—perfect for soaking up views of the lush countryside and rolling hills.

You’ll be covering almost 247 km, so this is definitely a challenge best split over a couple of days. The ascent adds up (almost 1,750 meters!), but none of the climbs are too drastic—the route peaks at under 400 meters above sea level. The road surface is mostly paved, but expect some rough patches thanks to a few “missing” sections, so be ready for a real adventure.

At the finish, Changhua awaits—a relaxed city known for its huge Buddha statue on Baguashan and tasty local eats. It’s a fun contrast to bustling Taipei and the perfect reward after a long ride!
