Jednodniowa wycieczka rowerowa z Yilan do Tajpej

If you’re up for a serious cycling challenge, the ride from Yilan to Taipei is a true test of endurance and legs! Starting off in the relaxed coastal city of Yilan—famous for its hot springs and rice paddies—you’ll head north through the dramatic mountains that separate Yilan from Taiwan’s capital. Along the way, expect lots of quiet roads and access roads, making for a peaceful ride, though paved surfaces are mixed and not always guaranteed.

The route is just shy of 100 km and includes a hefty 3,700 meters of climbing, reaching nearly 1,000 meters at its highest point. Translation: be ready for some big hills, epic views, and a real sense of adventure. You'll skirt lush forests and, if you time it right, might catch some misty mountain scenes before gradually descending into bustling Taipei—a city well-known for its night markets, food, and cycling-friendly riverside parks. Pack snacks, plenty of water, and maybe an extra pair of legs!
