Taiwan is often overlooked as an adventure travel destination but its close proximity to Hong Kong and its superb outdoor terrain make it one of the best adventure locations in the world!….not to mention the wonderful hotsprings, food and local people. I live here and would like to share some pictures with you from my backyard. There is an abundance of mountain biking, road cycling, hiking, river tracing, white water rafting and other activities to chose from.
This is one of my favorite mountain biking trails called the NengGao. It is perfect high-altitude single track that starts at 2000m, takes you up to 3000m before bombing down to 1100m. Totally awesome!

Here are some pictures from a recent 800km cycling tour we did from Taipei in the North of Taiwan to Kenting in the South.
