Tou-She Bike Trail Introduction
Toushe is a small village located southwest of Sun Moon Lake, at an elevation of approximately 640 to 670 meters, which is about 80 meters lower than Sun Moon Lake. The terrain is very flat, making it ideal for cycling, with the bike path starting right next to Highway 21. The Toushe Basin covers an area of only about 2 square kilometers, featuring flat fields, lush greenery, flocks of herons, and rustic farmhouses that together create a beautiful rural landscape. Riding a bicycle along the country roads is truly refreshing. The most famous and widely cultivated crop in Toushe is the loofah, which blooms with beautiful yellow flowers from June to August each year. Additionally, just a month earlier, the daylily fields are also located in the Toushe Basin, painting the fields orange with their vibrant colors, making it a perfect spot for stunning photos. Along the Toushe bike path, you can also see washing areas used by grandmothers and grandfathers. Do you want to know what it was like for people in the past to wash clothes and chat together? Don’t miss these three washing areas when you visit! During the summer vacation, if you want to avoid the crowded area around Sun Moon Lake, consider bringing your own bicycle here to experience the most authentic and charming rural atmosphere at a leisurely pace!
