TOUR OVERVIEW
The "Taiwan KOM Challenge" tour starts from and ends in Taipei. It is a bicycle tour that takes 7 days taking you through Wuling Farm, Taipei and Taroko Gorge in Taiwan. "Taiwan KOM Challenge" is a guided small group tour that includes accommodation in hotels, transport, meals and others.

The Grand Tours have popularized Europe’s highest roads, making them the bucket list of many riders, but there is another iconic climb that is quickly topping rider's bucket lists – the Taiwan KOM Challenge.

The pinnacle of this tour is the 105 km course from sea level up to 3,275 m, all the elements needed to test rider and machine against the mountains - long, twisting ascents, mind-numbing gradients and thinning air, all in the lush green surroundings of the tropics. Starting from Hualien’s Qixingtan, passing through the spectacular Taroko Gorge, then climbing to Taiwan’s highest passable road apex atop Route 14A to Wuling Pass. The route begins at sea level on the eastern coast and climbs up to 3275 metres. This 105 km route has tested even the world’s most elite riders.

You can now be a pro and ride with Team SpiceRoads in the Taiwan KOM to conquer this epic mountain. As part of Team SpiceRoads, you'll be treated to the pro-team life with this exclusive package, including:
