The most iconic cycling route in Changhua; every weekend it draws riders from all over, making it a favorite challenge and a must-ride course for bike races. Highway 139 runs through the heart of the Bagua Mountain range’s richest ecology: March brings hawks, April butterflies, and May the tung blossoms. Long rows of Madagascar almond form green tunnels whose swaying leaves, stirred by soft breezes, scatter light like an exotic land, while the ever-changing seasonal hues of the golden-rain trees add their own charm. Pedal slowly, feel the wind, and take in Changhua’s sweeping mountain views. Along the way you’ll pass farms, orchards, scenic restaurants, and quirky cafés—perfect for a leisurely ride, a cute-animal encounter that’ll make you smile, or a laid-back afternoon tea. A place to play all day. ★ Approx. 22.2 km (Changhua section) ★ Large elevation changes; good fitness and mountain-road experience required
