Hi all,

Hoping to spend 5/6 days in Taiwan in April. Been reading this thread and other sources - appreciate any feedback or idea.

I was going to rent a car in Taipei and see

- Taipei (probably do tours, not use the car)
- Jiufen
- Taroko Gorge
- Sunmoon Lake

I'm purposely leaving it sparse because my time is quite limited. I might be able to squeeze another day....

Appreciate any input

Depending on your route that's like 600km of driving which is a solid chunk; as long as you're cool with that and won't tire out, it is a bit faster than trains.

Is Sunmoon Lake a major destination for you? Because that's the most far outside of your way as it's across the mountains in the middle of the island whereas everything else is within a reasonably small area to the East/Northeast.

Def don't drive in Taipei imo

I'd happily swap out Sunmoon Lake for something a little closer. It was just a recommended destination by a friend who loved it.

Would you agree that a car is necessary for my trip? They seemed pretty adamant I should get one but that's just one opinion!

Thanks all, I may just skip Sunmoon Lake then. I save time and sounds like I can do it without a car!
