This tour is for those looking to go deeper. We’ll begin with a trip down the coast, pausing for a rest beneath the dramatic cliffs for which the area is justly known before heading into Taroko Gorge for the first of two hikes. The Shakadang Trail is a relatively level 3KM round-trip hike that follows the river and offers impressive views at every turn. The Zhuilu Historic Trail (originally built by the Japanese military) is significantly more challenging, being both twice as long and requiring some serious climbing; at points you’ll find yourself looking down into the gorge far below. You’ll also experience an evening riverside shrimp BBQ on the river, two nights in 4-star hotel luxury, a trip to a chilled out night market in Hualien, and a few other surprises.
