A group of mountain bikers in Kaohsiung have become regulars on a hiking route near Shou Shan Zoo. They brave tough conditions for the thrill of the ride.

Cyclists head to this dark mountain area to ride from Shou Shan Zoo toward Chaishan. The trail starts flat. Bikers talk and laugh as they ride, but soon they reach a section with a 45-degree decline.


The road also has many stairs. One mistake can lead to an accident.

Cyclist
You need experience here in the daytime, so you’re at least familiar with the trail. Then you know how to ride it and avoid some of the dangerous sections.

The cyclists come out at night to avoid hikers. The ride takes about an hour.

Cyclist
At night the air is better. The lights are pretty and the atmosphere is nice. It’s great to see Kaohsiung lit up.

Besides the mountain setting and beautiful scenery there is coffee and food. This is what cyclists love.
