Ga eerst de Taroko Gorge binnen via de boog. Deze grote boog, geïnspireerd op de traditionele Chinese paleisarchitectuur, ligt aan het zuideinde van de Jinwen Bridge, waar het samenkomt met de Central Cross-Island Highway. Zijn zes tekens tellende inscriptie, geschreven door de beroemde moderne kalligraaf Mr. Wang Chuang-Wei, is het embleem van de snelweg geworden sinds de opening. Vandaag de dag fungeert het ook als de ingang van de Tarokokloof en fungeert het als een bezienswaardigheid en een populaire fotomogelijkheid.
Ga het park in vanaf het bezoekerscentrum om een overzicht te krijgen van Taroko National Park.
In het Taroko National Park Visitor Center kun je meer te weten komen over de geologische krachten die Taroko hebben gevormd. Het landschap van Taiwan is opgetild door plaattektonische compressie, waardoor aardbevingen veel voorkomen. De tentoonstellingen tonen ook de voor- en na-effecten van seismische gebeurtenissen – met name de grote Hualien-aardbeving in 2024, die de paden en landvormen van het park drastisch veranderde.
Eternal Spring Shrine is gebouwd om het 226 personeel (militaire veteranen) te herdenken dat is omgekomen tijdens de aanleg van de Central Cross-Island Highway.
Tianxiang ligt langs het oostelijke deel van de Central Cross-Island Highway, ongeveer 19 km van Taroko Gorge. Hier vloeien de Dasha- en Tacijili-rivier samen tot de Liwu-rivier, waarvan de lange geschiedenis van sedimentatie en erosie opvallende meerterrasvormige rivieroevers heeft gevormd. Deze ruime vallei brulde ooit van restaurants, winkels en hotels, maar na de aardbeving van 2024 daalde het bezoekersaantal en verhuisden veel bedrijven – waardoor een rustige, bijna ongerepte sfeer achterbleef. Houd een oogje in het zeil voor Formosaanse makaken die door het gebied zwerven; hun aanwezigheid voegt een charmant wild tintje toe aan dit rustige bergverblijf.
Langs de Central Cross-Island Highway, na het passeren van Jiuqudong (Tunnel of Nine Turns), bereikt u Cimu Bridge (Moederlijke toewijdingsbrug). Deze H-vormige hangbrug is voorzien van marmeren stenen leeuwen aan elk uiteinde en marmeren lotusstenen aan twee zijden. Onder de brug lijkt een rots op een kikker, gevormd uit een zwarte schistlaag bovenop en wit marmer onderaan. Een paviljoen gebouwd op deze kikkervormige rots dient als kroon, gebouwd door wijlen president Chiang Jing-guo ter nagedachtenis aan zijn moeder tijdens de aanleg van de snelweg. Het Cimu-paviljoen, gelegen aan de oostkant van de brug en gebouwd door wijlen president Chiang Kai-shek, herdenkt ook zijn moeder, mevrouw Wang.
Xincheng is een dorp aan de voet van Taroko Gorge, bekend om zijn lokale Hualien snackkraampjes en restaurants. De vintage-stijl fotostudio is een ideale mid-trip rustplek. Als je dieetwensen hebt, vraag dan gerust je chauffeur- Gids om lokale suggesties op de dag.
Qixingtan Beach is een pittoresk kiezelstrand gelegen aan de Pacifische kust van Hualien, net ten noorden van de stad. De halvemaanvormige kustlijn, het diepblauwe water en de bergachtergrond maken het een ideale plek om de zonsopgang te bekijken en foto's te maken. Bezoekers kunnen genieten van fietsen langs het kustpad, ontspannen in paviljoens, of een wandeling langs levendige huizen en kunstinstallaties. 'S Nachts is het strand rustig - perfect om sterren te kijken en golven te kijken. Opmerking : Zwemmen is niet toegestaan vanwege sterke stroming. Qixingtan is een must-see voor degenen die willen genieten van de natuur en rust tijdens een reis naar Hualien. Voordat u uw bezoek afsluit, luistert u naar de golven die op de rotsen neerstorten en geniet u van het adembenemende uitzicht op de Stille Oceaan.
Je persoonlijke chauffeursgids begeleidt je aan het einde van de tour terug naar je hotel / b & b in Taipei City.

It’s long day due to travel times. However worth the drag. Be prepared to climb and walk in the heat. Our guide was very accommodating and was happy to stop when we wanted.
Bubble was an amazing tour guide who gave us a great experience! Everything was timed out perfectly and we were introduced to all of the sights as Bubble discussed the history of Taroko. Even though most of the hikes are closed still, we had a great time and enjoyed no crowds and no admission fee. Highly recommend this tour, especially for foreign tourists and anyone with movement difficulties. Thank you Bubble, we had a great day!
Wonderful tour! Jack was an excellent, friendly, and knowledgeable tour guide. The ride was very comfortable. Jack took us to so many beautiful sights and provided lots of info about the gorge. Would highly recommend this tour!
This was a private tour, actually I was the only one in the tour. Caleb was my tour guide and he was awesome. Very knowledgeable about sites, history and everything in-between. Taroko gorge is amazing and we visited as much as was possible given the construction repairs after the earthquake (about 3 years ago). I highly recommend it!

Jack was a fantastic tour guide. Always attentive, informative, and knowledgeable. He knows all the spots to go and all the right ways to get there. Although the hiking trails in the park are closed post-earthquake, it is still open for driving tours and small stops along the way. Absolutely gorgeous and definitely worth it.

Very long day, mostly driving. 3 hours each way, + driving locally. Gorges are nice but not worth the distance. People should stay at least a couple days on site, and perhaps do local activities (beach, hiking)
Hi Joel, Thank you for sharing your honest feedback. You're completely right about the drive—it does take about 2.5 to 3 hours each way from Taipei, and holiday traffic can make it even longer. We always try to include a couple of rest stops for snacks and bathroom breaks to make the long journey more comfortable. We also appreciate your note about staying overnight. Since the 2024 earthquake, several gorge trails remain closed for safety. To adapt, our current day tour combines open paths with coastal activities at Qixingtan Beach. As the park continues its restoration, we look forward to adding more trails back into the itinerary. Thank you again for your valuable insights. We hope to welcome you back for a more relaxed, multi-day trip next time! Best regards, Lawson
My partner and I had a great time on this tour. Even though all the trails were closed due to the big earthquake in 2024, our tour guide, Steven, was still able to show us quite a few good spots to explore and take photos. Steven was very friendly, attentive, knowledgeable and didn’t rush us and let us take our time to enjoy the beauty of Tarako Gorge National Park. Highly recommended.
