Jednodniowa wycieczka rowerowa z Fengyuan do Puli

Starting your ride in Fengyuan, a bustling district in the north of Taichung known for its lively night market and rich agricultural heritage, you’ll wind your way south into the heart of Central Taiwan. The route to Puli isn’t for the faint of heart — you’ll climb almost 2,000 meters, topping out at around 1,058 meters in elevation, so expect some leg-burning action as you pedal through lush valleys and over ridgelines.

Most of the journey is delightfully peaceful: about 42% is on quiet roads, and nearly a third on access roads and dedicated cycleways. The scenery gets more rural and rugged, with only occasional stretches on busier roads. As you get closer to Puli, nestled in a stunning basin surrounded by mountains, reward yourself with a local specialty like handmade Shaoxing wine or a visit to the famous Chung Tai Chan Monastery.

Keep in mind, paved surfaces only account for about 11%—the rest varies, so a sturdy set of tires will serve you well. This is a beautiful, rewarding ride that weaves together rural landscapes, mountain vistas, and the laid-back charm of two classic Taiwanese towns.
