Tie Hua Village, a vibrant destination in the heart of downtown Taitung, is filled with colourful and musical aroma. You can hear the melodies of the aboriginal culture from a distance away. Lined with a sea of colourful hot air balloon lanterns, this is the place to be in Taitung for a relaxing yet energetic atmosphere.
The swim course is set for Flowing Lake in TaiTung. The two-lap swim is in a man-made reservoir with easy views for spectators to watch from the shore.
The 180km bike is set on an undulating two-lap course which heads north between the soaring Carp Mountains and spectacular Pacific Ocean coastline.
The run combines the cultural heart of Taitung city with the beautiful Pipa Lake Park, the surrounding tranquil rice fields and orchards and vibrant ocean promenade.
After the 2017 Challenge Taiwan, the organizer want to upgrade the place which we lack of in 2018 and bring to our athletes a different experience and the concept of family carnival in Taitung.
