☀️☀️☀️ Trail Rating: Moderate ☀️☀️☀️

Join Parkbus Taiwan on a 10km thru hike along the Pingxi Historic Trail & Shikong Historic Trail 坪溪古道 & 石空古道. This small group tour takes guests from the mountainous area of Pingxi, New Taipei City to the stunning and rugged east coast of Taiwan in Yilan County.

Trip Overview

This trip is a guided, small-group hike. The tour offers participants the opportunity to hike 10km from New Taipei City to Yilan along two historic hiking trails in Taiwan. These are easy, non-technical trails that offer glimpses over the picturesque east coast of Taiwan. There are a few streams to cross, but they aren’t too deep. Bring a bathing suit and a small towel to dry up if you want to cool off in the river. The route we will be taking (see map below) will end in Wai’ao, where guests can take a dip in the Pacific Ocean or grab a bite to eat and a drink at one of the local eateries in town.

In this itinerary, we will take you on a 10-kilometer walk along two historic trails from New Taipei City to Yilan County. On this easy trail, you will be able to enjoy the picturesque east coast of Taiwan, and you will also cross several very shallow streams. If you want to relax in the cool water and dry off your body, please bring a small towel and a bathing suit.
