Jednodniowa wycieczka rowerowa z Chang-hua do Nantou

This ride takes you from Changhua, famous for its impressive Confucius Temple and the iconic Bagua Mountain Buddha, all the way to Nantou City—the lively heart of Taiwan’s only landlocked county. The route is just over 35 km and makes for a solid half-day adventure. Though the journey starts fairly flat, you’ll rack up over 500 meters of climbing as you gradually make your way into the lush, rolling hills that characterize Nantou.

Most of the ride is along access and quiet roads, so you can enjoy a peaceful escape from traffic. With almost all the route lacking a specifically identified surface, be prepared for some variety—expect mostly decent tarmac, but don’t be surprised if you hit stretches that feel a bit rough. The picturesque countryside views and the tranquility of rural Taiwan more than make up for it!

As you arrive in Nantou, take some time to explore the city’s food stalls or check out the historic Nantou Winery. It’s a great blend of local culture, nature, and a bit of a workout.
