> [@CTaitung](#): > > The bike ride is doable from Taimali to Kenting. I once did it from Kenting to Taitung City in 1 day. > Just a few steep hills after you climb 9 leaving Taimali. > Left turn on 199, Follow that a ways until left turn on 199甲 and then right turn on 26 (blue). Right turn on 200, which eventually takes you back to 26 after taking left turn on 200甲 for a short distance. > > The train does not take you to Kenting. It takes you from Dawu on southeast Taitung coast to Fangshan on southwest coast of Pingtung County and then turns north toward Pingtung City and Kaohsiung. At the top of 9, right at the junction where you turn left on 199, there’s a place you can take a break and fill up with water, if necessary. Doesn’t look especially welcoming, but seems to be cycling specific - loads of people stopping off there when I’ve been past. The 199 is my favourite road in Taiwan (not that I’ve ridden all of them 😉 ). Lovely smooth surface most of the way, not too steep, nice and twisty. Just watch out for the odd clown coming round bends on the wrong side (usual stuff), but it was very quiet each time I’ve ridden it. Enjoy. --- _[View the full topic](https://tw.forumosa.com/t/submitted-for-your-approval-tentative-east-coast-itinerary/166873)._
