Hiking in Taiwan has been a passion of ours for a combined 30+ years. We promote travel on this beautiful island by leading group and private hikes and tours. Have a look at this website to see what Taiwan, and Taiwan Adventures can offer you!
There are hundreds of great day hikes within an hour or two of Taipei City.  Within a very short time, you can be surrounded by lush forest or enjoying a waterfall spa. We often lead group hikes that anyone can join, and private groups to these beautiful locations.
Camping in Taiwan s lush forests can be an treat for the most rugged outdoorsman, or fun for the whole family.  If camping isn t you thing, comfortable, reasonably priced lodges and hotels are found all over the island.  We have a number of hikes that can easily be done in a weekend or extended into multi-day adventures.  So get out of the city and enjoy the mountains with us!
Hiking Taiwan s high mountains is a world-class hiking experience.  Taiwan has the second highest mountain range in eastern Asia.  Many of its tall peaks are easily accessible on a weekend trip from Taipei and they offer some breath-taking views and challenging climbs.
We don t only do hiking and adventure. Whether it s culture, beaches, bird watching or photography that you re interested in, we can help you! Our experienced guides can show all the best spots around the island.
We have over 26 years of experience traveling and hiking on Ihla Formosa, the Beautiful Island.  We love promoting our adopted home and would love to show you all that we ve learned as we continue to explore and experience it.
We re fours guys, three Brits and one American who have been living and traveling around Taiwan together for a long time.  We all came to Taiwan for completely different reasons, but fell in love with it for the same ones, the island s outstanding natural beauty and the friendliness of the locals who have so often gone completely out their way to help us.
Stuart Dawson - Stu first arrived in Taiwan with the intention of staying for 6 months and then moving on to the next Asian country.   6 years later and he s still here and still enjoys traveling and exploring the beautiful island .
Since coming to Taiwan, Stu took up hiking and really can t think of a better way see Taiwan s real beauty than walking and climbing its hills and mountains.  From hot, semi-tropical broad-leafed jungle to snow covered peaks, Taiwan really does have it all.  Stu has written extensively about his treks on Hiking Taiwan in the magazine Travel in Taiwan .
Neil Wade - Neil came to Taiwan thinking that it would be a good place to base himself to explore other countries in Asia.  Before long, he realized that there is so much to see and do in Taiwan, that he rarely needs to leave the island to find something new and interesting.  Whether in the mountains, a temple, a small village or a big city, Neil can usually be found documenting Taiwan with his images.
Neil is a professional freelance photographer who specializes in editorial and corporate images.  His portfolios can be found at: neilwade.com and his travel blog can be found at Taiwan Photography Blog .
Phil Dawson - Phil has been a resident of Taiwan since 2004 and during this time has traveled extensively throughout the island.  During this time, he also spent three years studying Mandarin at the National Taiwan Normal University and achieved the highest level in the Mandarin Proficiency Test.
In recent years he has written about his travels around the island (in English and Mandarin) for a variety of magazines and websites.  In 2010, he released his iPhone guide to Taipei Taipei Uncovered.  The positive feedback received from this inspired him to get together with the rest of the team and create guides to the whole island.
Ross Tweedie -  Feeling bored of home and adventurous, Ross came to Taiwan in 2001 for a year to teach English. He left after 9 months with his tail between his legs and a feeling that he had not made the most of this opportunity. With only one trip out of Taipei (to Hualien) in this time, he felt he d missed seeing so much of this remarkable little island.
Within a couple of years he was back, a better teacher, a better traveller, and a more adventurous person. Since then he s hiked the biggest mountains, traveled from north to south and east to west, camped, explored, lived and partied all over Taiwan, Still there are always more places to go, and things for him to discover, learn and experience. He s not tired of Taiwan yet and doubts he ever will be.
