About the lengthDapeng Bay National Scenic Area's cycling page gives the bikeway as about 11.7 km around the lagoon. The same scenic area's FAQ gives 16 km including branch paths (16公里含支線), so 16 km is the loop plus spurs and 11.7 km is the loop itself. The national Taiwan Bike portal's Dapeng Bay Bike Tour is 18.5 km because it also links Linbian Station and Donglong Temple, partly on mixed-traffic roads. A roughly 12 km figure used elsewhere (a 2015 race document gives 12 km for one lap of the bay road) is close to the loop length.
Why these labels
Traffic and path type: The portal maps the loop around the bay as a bicycle and pedestrian shared path. The links from Linbian Station and to Donglong Temple in Donggang are mixed-traffic roads. If your loop uses 鵬灣跨海大橋, note it is an opening bridge (see hours). The national cycling portal's road-type data marks about 6 km of its Dapeng Bay line, which includes branches, as mixed traffic. Stay on the shared path around the bay, and watch for cars where the route meets roads.
Families: The scenic area describes the bikeway as gentle and suitable for the whole family, and the loop itself is a shared path away from traffic. Avoid the road links to Linbian and Donggang with young children. Some official stretches share the road with cars, so keep children close where the path meets roads.
Dapeng Bay is a lagoon on the Pingtung coast between Donggang and Linbian. The national scenic area describes the around-bay bikeway as flat, with views of the lagoon, fishing villages, the sea wall and wetlands.
Stops the scenic area names along the way include the visitor centre, 大潭濕地, 映霞橋亭, 崎峰社區, 南平海堤 and the 青洲 recreation area. It estimates about two hours for a lap at an easy pace.
The scenic area lists the 大鵬灣單車站 for rental (standard, children's and e-assist bikes) and guided rides. YouBike 2.0 stations also exist around the bay.
Who it suits
Ideal for families, older riders and anyone pairing a ride with Donggang seafood or a Xiaoliuqiu trip. Not a workout for strong riders.
The route
A ride plan, in order
- Start near the visitor centre or the Dapeng Bay Bike Station inside the international leisure zone (entrance 2).
- The scenic area's half-day route goes: bike station, 落日灣, 右岸濕地, 崎峰濕地, 濱灣碼頭, 鵬灣跨海大橋.
- Close the loop back to the start; allow about two hours at an easy pace by the scenic area's estimate.
- Optional: ride the mixed-traffic link to Donglong Temple in Donggang, as in the scenic area's 輕騎環鵬灣 itinerary.
Opening hours and closures
Opening hours and closures鵬灣跨海大橋 opens for boats on weekends and national holidays at 17:00 (March to September) and 16:30 (October to February), per the scenic area FAQ; expect a wait if you are crossing then. Bike station hours as in rental.
Getting there without a car
- From HSR Zuoying (exit 2), the scenic area recommends Taiwan Tourist Shuttle 9127D/9127G (大鵬灣琉球線) to stops including 濱灣碼頭 and 大鵬灣遊客中心.
- By train, TRA Linbian Station is the start of the portal's 18.5 km multi-route and has a YouBike station; the link to the bay is on mixed-traffic roads.
- From Kaohsiung airport the scenic area lists bus routes 9117 and 9117A to Donggang and Dapeng Bay.
Bringing your own bike: Bike carriage on the 9127D/9127G shuttle was not verified. For TRA to Linbian, follow TRA bag or designated-train rules; the portal flags Linbian as a bike-friendly station.

Safety and conditions
- Shared with walkers and joggers: ride at a relaxed speed, especially near the visitor centre and 濱灣碼頭.
- The road links to Linbian and Donggang are mixed traffic with cars and scooters.
- Little shade and strong sun; the scenic area suggests riding between 16:00 and 18:00.
- Coastal wind can be strong on the sea wall sections. Avoid during typhoon warnings.
- Check the Central Weather Administration forecast before you go. Heavy rain, typhoons and earthquakes close paths, river parks and roads, sometimes for weeks.
- Wear a properly fitted bike helmet, whatever the law says for your bike.
When to go
The scenic area recommends 16:00 to 18:00 to avoid the hottest sun and catch the sunset.
