Due to limited taxi availability, especially in the early morning, the shuttle bus is the recommended and most reliable way to reach the starting line from Puli town.

Airports
NOT PROVIDED – but we may help you – contact us
The best way to travel to Puli from Taoyuan Airport (TPE) is to take the MRT to Taipei Main Station. From there, you can take the organizer’s shuttle bus to Puli and the venue (as described in the information above).
NOT PROVIDED – but we may help you – contact us
Look for Bus 156 at the Taichung International Airport bus terminal. This bus directly connects the airport to the Taichung HSR Station.
Once you arrive at the Taichung HSR Station, head to Exit 5 on the 1st floor where the bus terminal is located. Look for the Nantou Bus (南投客運) counter or bus stop.
Take the Nantou Bus (Route 6670 or other direct Puli-bound buses) from the HSR station to the Puli Bus Station (埔里轉運站). These buses are frequent and the journey takes approximately 40-50 minutes.
Okay, here’s a shorter, combined version of those two points: Direct and convenient taxi: Fastest, transfer-free travel from the airport to your Puli accommodation, eliminating bus navigation and schedules.
The fare is calculated based on a meter, which includes a starting fare and a per-kilometer charge, as well as potential surcharges (e.g., for nighttime travel).
These are readily available at the designated taxi stands outside the airport terminals (usually on the B1 level of the International Terminal).
Estimated Price: Expect to pay around NT$1500 – NT$2000 or more for a direct taxi ride from Taichung Airport to Puli. The exact cost can vary depending on traffic conditions, the specific location in Puli, and any surcharges. The journey typically takes around 50-60 minutes.
