Taipei Day Trips Guidebooks - Original Hikes Around the Capitol March 16, 2010
Taipei Day Trips 1 - Thirty original hikes and tours around the capital by Richard Saunders
Taipei Day Trips 2 - Walks on the wild side (30 new hikes and tours around the capital) by Richard Saunders
The Taipei area has a lot more to offer the hiker or day tripper than just Yangminshan or the National Palace Museum.
For people who want to enjoy the beautiful moutains surrounding Taipei, our Day Trip guides provide an extensive listing of hikes complete with maps and detailed information for getting there by car or public transport. No knowledge of Chinese is required; the route for each trip is described in detail and Chinese characters are supplied to make communicating and finding your way easier. Each hike is rated for difficulty, including notes when walks are not suitable for children and/or dogs.
Day Trip guides offer an insider's perspective on where to go and when. Many of the walks in the books pass thorugh relatively little visited areas, providing respite from the hustle and bustle of Taipei. Times of year and weather conditions best suited to individual walks are also discussed.
Taipei Day Trips 1 and 2 are available for sale at The Center. Day Trips 1 sells for NTD 400 and Day Trips 2 for NTD 500. For a fax order form and shipping information, please click here.
Day Trips books are also available at select bookstores in Taipei, including: Eslite, Cave's and Takashimaya Bookstore.
Proceeds from the sale of Taipei Day Trips books are reinvested in the community through The Center's programs and services.
