What we’re about
It’s Simple. We’re your ride to get outside.
Parkbus Taiwan connects city dwellers with nature through express, reservable and accessible transportation options to some of the best (and hard to get to) natural areas in Taiwan.
This group is for anyone interested in hiking, birding, nature and wildlife viewing and generally just looking to get outside with other like-minded enthusiasts.
This is a transportation-only solution to accessing nature.
Parkbus Taiwan is a pilot project working with guidance from Parkbus Canada. Founded in 2010, Parkbus Canada operates bus services to National and Provincial Parks from major cities across Canada.
Parkbus Taiwan is coordinated and operated by outdoor enthusiasts for outdoor enthusiasts. We're simply seeking to create greater access to natural areas for families, friends and all nature-lovers in Taiwan!
想要跟朋友或家人到戶外更親近大自然、呼吸新鮮空氣卻發現景點都很難去嗎?
Parkbus Taiwan 提供您新選擇來認識台灣美麗的大自然,為大眾交通運輸難以到達的大自然景區提供預約的來回直達車。
Parkbus Taiwan是一個接受Parkbus指導的試營運的計畫。Parkbus在2010年成立於加拿大,提供從加拿大市區到國家公園以及州立公園的往來直達接駁車。

See all- Climb Some of Taiwan's Top 100 Peaks - Hehuanshan Day TripHehuanshan, Nantou County, TA
Join Parkbus Taiwan for our small group hiking tour to one of the most spectacular hiking destinations in Taiwan, Mount Hehuan (also known as Hehuanshan).
Travel up Taiwan's highest-altitude paved road before reaching nearly the ceiling of Taiwan for a day of hiking surrounded by Taiwan's Central Mountains.
** OVERVIEW 行程介紹 **
This small group hiking trip offers guests the opportunity to climb one or more of Taiwan's “Top 100 Peaks” over 3,000 meters in elevation. Known as the "Bai Yue", these high-mountain climbs have become something of a bucket list experience for hikers around the world. The best part about this hiking area is that these trails require no high-mountain permits and are the most accessible and arguably the easiest "Bai Yue" to hike in the country.Departing from Taichung High-Speed Train Station, a private 9-passenger van will take guests directly to the trailhead of Hehuanshan's North Peak. From here guests will join our guide and hike up to Hehuan North Peak 合歡北峰 with an approximate elevation of 3422m! This trail is just over 4km (return) and includes just over 500m in elevation gains. We are estimating about 5 hours for climbing and descending this moderately difficult trail as a group. It is a steep climb over a short distance and is suitable for those who are moderately fit. The elevation can have an impact on one's hiking pace.
After the group has come down, our private van will be waiting for us to take the group to the Hehuanshan Lookout. At this location, guests will have access to restrooms and a shop with a small selection of drinks and food. Guests can stay and enjoy a time to relax or they will have a choice of hiking one of two (if time allows, both can be ascended) trails.
- Shimenshan (石門山) - Officially listed as one of Taiwan's Bai Yue, this peak has an elevation of 3237m and a total distance of just over 1.6km.
- Hehuanshan Point (合歡尖山) - Although not officially listed as one of Taiwan's Bai Yue, Hehuanshan Point is located at an elevation of 3,217m

Did we forget to say this trip is challenging, yet super fun, a great opportunity to bond with others and make new friends, as well as a chance to create memories to last a lifetime?
Well, it certainly is!
Standing tall at 3,952m, Jade Mountain (玉山), (also known as "Yushan") is not only the tallest mountain in Taiwan but also the tallest mountain in all of East Asia. Ingrained in Taiwanese popular consciousness and culture, this peak is the crown jewel of mountains in Taiwan and for many, a life-long goal to climb.
Despite being the highest mountain in Taiwan, Jade Mountain is a moderately challenging hike, primarily due to the length of the hike and altitude. Jade Mountain Main Peak is suitable for just about anyone with a reasonable level of fitness and determination. Jade Mountain can be climbed a number of ways, however, on this Parkbus Taiwan experience our guests will hike the traditional route from Tatajia (塔塔加).
Parkbus Taiwan's Jade Mountain Main Peak tour has been designed to allow international visitors to Taiwan a safe, convenient, and affordable way to climb to the top of Taiwan. The total hiking distance for this tour is approximately 21.6 kilometers (round trip). This tour is completed over three days and two nights and provides return transportation from Taipei Main Station.
Except for a few meals, Parkbus Taiwan takes care of all the details; from accommodation reservations, arranging private transportation, insurance booking, sleeping bag rentals, and mountain lodge meal bookings (some meals are to be prepared by guests), to the complicated National Park Permit application process. Parkbus Taiwan removes the barriers and takes care of all the planning.
