History

The Taiwan Thousand Miles Trail Association was initiated on April 23, 2006 by Huang Wu-hsiung, Hsiao Yeh, and Hsu Jen-hsiu.

The association aims to connect a cross-county trail network that provides safe walking and cycling routes while preserving natural and cultural beauty. Its areas of concern include round-island routes, pedestrian rights, green transportation, eliminating the 'three rural harms' of light pollution, herbicides, and concrete sprawl, eco-tourism, eco-craft trails, suburban hill conservation, and environmental sustainability.
