North Cross-Island Highway Getting there & around

Getting there & around

To begin your journey by bus, you need to get to Daxi (; Dàxī) first. Take the MRT to Ximen Station and take exit 2. Walk south to Guiyang St and turn left. Cross the road and just past Yanping Rd wait at the bus stop in front of Soochow University. Catch the Taipei–Daxi bus (NT104, one hour, every 30 minutes) to the Taoyuan Bus Company (; 03-388 2002) station in Daxi. This is the last stop.

From here you can catch buses as far as Xiao Wulai, but be warned that there are fewer and fewer buses running these routes, so it’s best to call the Taoyuan Bus Company to confirm the schedule. It’s so much better to have your own vehicle. Consider renting a car in Taipei or a scooter in Jiaoshi.
