Toushe Bike Path Introduction
Toushe is a small village located southwest of Sun Moon Lake, with an elevation of approximately 640 to 670 meters, making it about 80 meters lower than Sun Moon Lake. The terrain is very flat, making it ideal for cycling, and the starting point of the bike path is right next to Provincial Highway 21. The area of the Toushe Basin is only about 2 square kilometers, featuring flat lands, lush greenery, and flocks of egrets, along with rustic farmhouses, all together creating a beautiful rural landscape. Riding a bicycle along the rural paths here brings great joy and tranquility. The most famous and widely cultivated crop in Toushe is the silk gourd, which blooms striking yellow flowers from June to August every year. Additionally, the golden day lily field blooms a month earlier, also located in the Toushe Basin, painting the fields orange and providing perfect photo opportunities from any angle. Along the Toushe bike path, you can also find places where grandmothers and grandfathers used to wash clothes. If you want to see what life was like when people gathered to wash clothes and chat, be sure not to miss these three laundry spots! During the summer holiday season, if you wish to avoid the crowded areas around Sun Moon Lake, consider bringing your bicycle here to slow down and truly experience the authentic and warm rural charm.
