hi GUys,

Anyone of u made the trip to Taroko Gorge?
I need some advise.

Would it be possilbe to make a day trip to Taroko Gorge from Taipei?
If not, should i stay at night at Hua Lien?

Im not keen with tour group or tour buses. What is the best way to cover the Taroko Gorge? Some say that the best way is to ride the scooter up the gorge. But hmm i never rode a scooter before. Would it be too dangerous?

PLz advise

How about Jiu Fen? Is that a 1 day whole trip too from Taipei?
*
Taroko Gorge is near Hua Lien, to take a train from Taipei to Hua Lien, it gonna take around 2-3 hours. so if you wanna do a day trip, travel time it self takes up to 6 hours.
Taroko have shuttle bus service. but not very efficient though. it is recommended to have own transport to get there.

I just went there last week. That place is damaged quite badly from the last typhoon. A lot of places are closed and landslides are everywhere. Please be more careful when you drive/ride there.

If you ask me, I would suggest you to stay 1 night at Hua Lien, Anyway there is a very good xiao long bao and jiao zi at hua lien.

For Jiu fen, half day is more than enough edi. nothing much IMO. around 1 hour drive from Taipei. better go at night. they say the night view is good.
