World's Toughest Climb - At Your Own Pace

Taiwan WuLing 3275m, is the highest passable road atop HeHuanShan & Taroko gorge near Hualien county.  Wuling is the end point of the annual KoM Challenge Race organised by the Taiwan Cyclist Federation in October. 
It attracts professionals, elites & enthusiasts from more than 50 countries, including former Giro d’Italia and Tour de France winner Vincenzo Nibali & 2010 Time Trial World Champion Emma Pooley just to named a few.
The actual KoM Challenge Race has a strict cut-off time of just 6.5hours (timed section 85km) where competitors need to climb from sea-level near the entrance of Taroko Gorge ear Hualien up to 3275m Wuling.  This might be too tough for many cyclists.
 
SCT created this Taiwan KoM Experience Tour so that any cyclist could join us to ride the same journey and reach the top of 3275m, At Your Own Pace, to complete it.
 
Our itinerary split the ride into 1.5 days, with a one night stay up in the mountain lodge near Wuling summit.  This way, you can enjoy the journey, the great mountain view & fresh air, before continuing the most demanding final 15km ascend the next day.  There is a seat to provide that needed support should you need it. 

Highlights:
+ Experience cycling up one of the Most Iconic Climb in the World
+ Scenic cycling along the east coast near Taroko gorge
