River tracing 溯溪 This is a fairly new activity, and it involves following the course of a river up to its source. A day spent river tracing could involve climbing over large rocks, walking through rivers, and even climbing up waterfalls. This isn’t something that you can do on your own, but you can find a few river tracing groups in Taiwan.
River rafting 泛舟 There are a few places to go river rafting in Taiwan, but one of the best is the Xiuguluan River 秀姑巒溪 in Hualien County 花蓮縣. The river runs through tight gorges and moves very quickly as it goes towards the sea, making it perfect for this activity. It also means that you’ll be able to enjoy some nice scenery on the way.
Marathons 馬拉松 In Taiwan, long distance runners have a great choice of marathons to take part in. There are marathons all over the country, and they’re all in amazing locations. There are two marathons in Taipei, one in Taichung 台中, and another one that goes through Tainan’s 台南 ancient streets. Then, there are three marathons in the countryside. One of them is on Kinmen Island 金門島, one is in Taitung 台東, and the last is in Taroko National Park.
Bungee jumping 高空彈跳 There are a few places around Taiwan where you can safely plan a bungee jump. If you want to find a place near Taipei, head to Fuxing Township 復興鄉 in Taoyuan County 桃園縣. Apart from it being a safe place to jump, it’s also a beautiful location, so you’ll have something nice to look at when you’re hanging upside down!
River tracing 溯溪 溯溪也是後來才興起的活動,沿著溪流回溯到它的源頭。一天的溯溪活動裡,有時要攀越巨石、步行過河,甚至可能要攀爬瀑布。這項活動無法獨立完成,不過在台灣能找到一些溯溪同好。
River rafting 泛舟 台灣有幾個泛舟地方,其中最棒的是花蓮縣的秀姑巒溪。這條溪流經狹窄的山谷,水流湍急、奔流入海,因而造就成為絕佳的泛舟地點。這也意味著泛舟的同時還能一路欣賞山光水色。
Marathons 馬拉松 長跑選手在台灣有很多馬拉松賽事可以參加。台灣各地都有馬拉松比賽,而且地點都選得很好。台北有兩場、台中一場,另外一場路線經過台南的老街。偏遠地區也有三場,分別在金門、台東,還有太魯閣國家公園。
Bungee jumping 高空彈跳 台灣有幾個安全、適合高空彈跳的地方。如果想在台北市的附近,可以到桃園縣的復興鄉。這裡進行高空彈跳的安全性高,風景也很美,所以你倒掛在半空中時,還可以欣賞美景。 |
