The Jiahou Rice Fragrance Bike Trail is a 21‑kilometer route that connects to the Houfeng Rail‑Bike Trail, the Jiahou Line Bike Trail—including the Wanyou Valley branch—and the coastline bike trail. To match the changing scenery of Wanyou Valley throughout the seasons, the trail’s pavement is painted with local crops—rice paddies, rapeseed flowers, daisies, sunflowers, and cosmos—that visitors can enjoy and learn about. At the end of the dedicated path on the levee’s top, a styled archway has been installed in the rest‑and‑viewing area, turning a photo‑op into a magazine cover‑style shot and adding a fun element to the attraction. The Liu‑Fen Road branch is about 5.63 km long, passes through the Waipu District, links to the Yue Mei West Road Bike Trail, and terminates at the main line of Jiahou Road, forming a loop network. As one of Taichung’s major grape‑producing areas, wineries line the route, offering a romantic dining and wine‑tasting experience under the vines with seasonal selections. In May, when the sycamore blossoms are in full bloom, cyclists can leisurely enjoy the scenery and explore the sycamore‑flowered paths. The Wanyou Valley branch stretches roughly 12.6 km, including a 2‑km levee bike path. Riders can ride alongside the railway, enjoying views of the creek, irrigation channels, and the valley’s beauty. The route ends at the Yue Mei Tourist Sugar Factory. The entire line is a blend of farmland and natural scenery. From the peak of the Miao‑Yao levee, the valley view is panoramic, showcasing rural countryside scenery. The vast flower sea and crimson sunset light are Wanyou Valley’s two major attractions, perfect for cycling.
