Starting in the capital, Taipei, youll head east through the lush hills surrounding Taiwans capital, finding natural hot springs, waterfalls and hidden mountain communities along the way. You then hit the coast, where the East China Sea meets the Pacific, and from here hug the rugged coastline until we begin one of South East Asias most beautiful and challenging climbs, high into Taiwans central mountains.

But what goes up must come down, so after reaching the peak youll enjoy the once in a lifetime opportunity to glide more than 3000 vertical metres down through the iconic marble cliffs of Taroko gorge, before a rest day exploring the food markets in the culinary capital of Taiwan - Hualien.

Back on the bike, youll meander through miles of ancient paddy fields and farming villages in Taiwans Rift Valley, before rejoining the undulating coastal road and following it all the way to Taiwans southernmost tip, Kenting. A surfing hot spot, grab a board or simply chill on the beach with an ice cold beer.

To wrap things up, youll complete your circuit of Taiwan by taking the High Speed Rail with a top speed of 300km/h back up the west coast to Taipei. After a day of seeing the sights, enjoy a memorable hot pot dinner in one of Taipeis best-loved local restaurants to conclude the tour.
