Taipei & Taroko Gorge

Why Taiwan should be your next vegan vacation destination

While Taiwan is better known for its award-winning tea and state-of-the-art chip manufacturing, this island nation is finally getting the recognition it deserves as a world-class outdoor destination. Home to the heighest peaks east of the Himalayas, Taiwan is blessed with over 100 peaks measuring more than 10,000 feet above sea level. While it’s high mountains and accessible trails are a huge draw, Taiwan’s cycling infrastructure is what really sets it apart from other Asian nations. It makes sense that the island would be so cyclist-friendly, since Taiwan produces more high-end bicycles than any other country on earth. Our vegan tour takes you to the most scenic trails and cycling routes in Yangmingshan National Park, as well as to the otherworldly beauty of Taroko Gorge National Park, home to the world’s largest marble gorge. Whether you enjoy hiking up to a mountain top Buddhist temple, or perusing the vegan fare at a local night market, our vegan tour of Taiwan has something for every traveler.
