Taiwan: Asia’s Premier Destination for Cycling, Sustainability and Low-Carbon Travel

Taiwan’s dramatic mountains, surrounding seas, diverse natural landscapes and rich cultural heritage have long made it a favourite among international travellers. In the past decade, more visitors have chosen to explore the island by bicycle, cruising at a relaxed 25 km/h through scenery that can be experienced sustainably and supported by bike-friendly places to stay.

A Cycling Paradise with World-Class Routes

For travellers who explore the world on two wheels, Taiwan offers challenging terrain, excellent infrastructure, high convenience and distinctive sightseeing. From coastal stretches and rice-field plains to high-altitude climbs such as Wuling, cyclists can experience a variety of landscapes and difficulty levels within a short distance.

One highlight is Taiwan Cycling Route No. 1, a 968-km circuit that encircles the entire island. Marked with clear signage and equipped with rest and refreshment stops, it enables international visitors to plan a safe, smooth and worry-free trip around Taiwan.

Another iconic ride is the Sun Moon Lake Bikeway, named by CNN as one of the world’s ten most beautiful cycling paths. With lakeside views and gentle gradients, it is ideal for leisure riders and families.

A Naturally Convenient and Cycle-Friendly Environment

Taiwan’s unique urban-rural layout makes exploration exceptionally convenient. The island’s dense network of convenience stores provides reliable resupply points, a feature cyclists often cite as a major advantage.

To support the global shift toward low-carbon travel, the Tourism Administration continues to expand its Bike-Friendly Accommodation program. Certified hotels must offer secure bike parking, cleaning facilities, basic repair tools and other essential services. Many also provide early breakfast, late check-out and additional flexibility for riders. Combined with Taiwan’s renowned hospitality, the program ensures that both cyclist and bicycle receive the rest and care they need.

Countless international riders recall memorable encounters with helpful locals—moments that often become defining highlights of their journey.

A Destination Worth Returning To

Whether you are visiting for the first time or returning to rediscover “Formosa” — the beautiful island — Taiwan offers an unrivalled cycling experience defined by convenience, diverse scenery and genuine warmth. Booking a Bike-Friendly Accommodation is the ideal way to begin your next adventure on two wheels.
