However, it’s not just known for its sake, but also for its tidal flats, rich ecosystems, and cultural heritage, which make it a unique destination to visit. Like many rural areas in Japan, Kashima faces challenges that come with depopulation and an aging society. Kashima City is committed to advancing the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), and an innovative project has emerged through the collaboration between multiple stakeholders. The  project creates a unique sake that not only is appreciated for its rich flavour, but also contributes... - [X9-Winter](https://onsgo.org/x9-winter/) - [X8-Fall](https://onsgo.org/x8-fall/) - [X7 -Summer](https://onsgo.org/x7-summer/) - [X6 - Spring](https://onsgo.org/x6-spring/) - [X5 - North-South Taiwan (5-7 days)](https://onsgo.org/x5-north-south-taiwan-5-7-days/) - [X4 – East Coast Highlights](https://onsgo.org/x4-east-coast-highlights/) - [X3 - Little Taiwan](https://onsgo.org/x3-little-taiwan/) - [X2 - Coast to Coast (Northern Crossroad)](https://onsgo.org/x2-coast-to-coast-northern-crossroad/) - [X1- Budha’s hand](https://onsgo.org/x1-budhas-hand/) - [E10 | Yilan valley](https://onsgo.org/e10-yilan-valley/) - [E9 | Old Caoling Tunnel](https://onsgo.org/e9-old-caoling-tunnel/) - [E8 | Taipingshan ](https://onsgo.org/e8-taipingshan/) - [E7 | Taroko-Wuling](https://onsgo.org/e7-taroko-wuling/) - [E6 | Yilan -Lishan climb](https://onsgo.org/e6-yilan-lishan-climb/) - [E5 | Yilan -Ahuoa waterfall ](https://onsgo.org/e5-yilan-ahuoa-waterfall/) - [E4 | Hualien – Guanfu coastal loop](https://onsgo.org/e4-hualien-guanfu-coastal-loop/) - [E3 | Ruishui-Changbin loop](https://onsgo.org/e3-ruishui-changbin-loop/) - [E2 |Yuanshan valley (Yilan)](https://onsgo.org/e2-yuanshan-valley-yilan/) - [E1 | East Rift Valley](https://onsgo.org/e1-east-rift-valley/) - [S10 | Pingtung - Taitung (road 9)](https://onsgo.org/s10-pingtung-taitung-road-9/) - [S9 | Penghu](https://onsgo.org/s9-penghu/) - [S8 | Coffee Road 175](https://onsgo.org/s8-coffee-road-175/) - [S7 | Wutai](https://onsgo.org/s7-wutai/) - [S6 | Green Island (Ludao)](https://onsgo.org/s6-green-island-ludao/) - [S5 | Fuli-Dulan (road 23)](https://onsgo.org/s5-fuli-dulan-road-23/) - [S4 | Kenting loop](https://onsgo.org/s4-kenting-loop/) - [S3 | Pingtung - Road 185](https://onsgo.org/s3-pingtung-road-185/) - [S2 | Orchid Island](https://onsgo.org/s2-orchid-island/) - [S1.2 | East-Southern crossroad from Chishang- Xiangyang](https://onsgo.org/s1-2-east-southern-crossroad-from-chishang-xiangyang/) - [S1.1 | West-Southern crossroad from Pingtung- Meishankou](https://onsgo.org/s1-1-west-southern-crossroad-from-pingtung-meishankou/) - [W6 | Puli-Wuling](https://onsgo.org/w6-puli-wuling-2/) - [Wild Hokkaido - 5 days of exploring east Hokkaido; published at japantravel.com](https://onsgo.org/wild-hokkaido-5-days-of-exploring-east-hokkaido-published-at-japantravel-com/): To promote travel in the lesser known areas of Japan, we write blogs for various websites.

The route is extremely well organized, featuring numerous rest stops, excellent signage, and cyclist-friendly infrastructure throughout.

They attract countless people and tourists from all over the world year after year. At first, we didn’t quite understand the hype around the sakura season; after all, flowers bloom in spring everywhere! Why is it so special in Japan ?! Already early in January news outlets and social media were all discussing the cherry blossom forecast (sort of like a rain radar map), while supermarkets had fully switched to sakura mode with every product branded with cherry blossoms on it. It made us laugh a bit, so much fuss... - [De 10 beste wandelroutes rond Taipei, Taiwan; published at wereldreis.net](https://onsgo.org/de-10-beste-wandelroutes-rond-taipei-taiwan-published-at-wereldreis-net/): Written as a follow-up to our Our top 10 best day hikes near Taipei (with GPX) story, Viola has written a Dutch version that has been published at wereldreis.net.

As a port city, Nagasaki has attracted many different cultures over the centuries; first the Portuguese, followed by the Dutch and Chinese. Especially the Dutch played a significant role by establishing a trading post on Dejima, once an artificial island in Nagasaki harbor, which was a key point of contact between Japan and the West for over 200 years. And, of course Nagasaki is also known for a tragic chapter in history; the atomic bomb dropped on August 9,... - [N10 | Buyanting and Houtong cat village](https://onsgo.org/n10-buyanting-and-houtong-cat-village/) - [N9 | Wulai & Fushan](https://onsgo.org/n9-wulai-fushan/) - [N8 | Datun Shan (Yangminshan)](https://onsgo.org/n8-datun-shan-yangminshan/) - [N7 | Lalashan](https://onsgo.org/n7-lalashan/) - [N6 | Thousand Island Lake](https://onsgo.org/n6-thousand-island-lake/) - [N5 | Maokong](https://onsgo.org/n5-maokong/) - [N4 | Dongyanshan and Cihu statues](https://onsgo.org/n4-dongyanshan-and-cihu-statues/) - [N3 | Pinglin tea route](https://onsgo.org/n3-pinglin-tea-route/) - [N2 | Fengguizui loop](https://onsgo.org/n2-fengguizui-loop/) - [N1 | Wufenshan](https://onsgo.org/n1-wufenshan/) - [Environmental Photography](https://onsgo.org/environmental-photography/): We created this section of our website to highlight environmental issues. Human activities often take a significant toll on nature, even if it’s not always immediately obvious. The relationship between humans and nature is something we want to highlight, especially since it can sometimes feel like that connection is slipping away. Each of these pictures tells a story; one we hope will raise awareness about the impact of human actions on the environment, past and present. Where possible, we also want to point out solutions and inspire action toward a more sustainable future. - [South Korea](https://onsgo.org/south-korea/) - [Our top 10 best day hikes near Taipei (with GPX)](https://onsgo.org/our-top-10-best-day-hikes-near-taipei-with-gpx/): Taipei truly is a hiking paradise; it’s surrounded by an extensive network of trails, offering everything from scenic short hikes to full-day adventures. In just 30 minutes to an hour, you can journey from the city’s urban bustle to the heart of lush, green jungle. We’ve put together our top 10 favourite hikes around Taipei, all chosen for their easy access via public transport, so no need to worry about the logistics of getting to the trailhead and back. Each hike is just 1 to 2 hours away from the bustling metropolis, offering a diverse range of landscapes and experiences.... - [Sushi and beyond- how healthy is the Japanese cuisine?](https://onsgo.org/sushi-and-beyond-how-healthy-is-the-japanese-cuisine/): When people think of Japanese food, certain images come to mind: the mouthwatering tender Wagyu beef from cows pampered with massages, fresh sushi available on every streetcorner, and, of course, that Japanese cuisine is the epitome of healthy eating. While some of these assumptions may be true, we quickly learned that not everything on the Japanese menu is as virtuous as it seems. In fact, the most common dishes around us are a variety of Japanese curries, hearty bowls of ramen, and other indulgent comfort foods like yakitori and fried chicken with mayonnaise. It sounds delicious (and it usually is)... - [Our new home: Japan!](https://onsgo.org/our-new-home-japan/): A few weeks ago we landed in Nagasaki, our new home for a while. Many people want to visit Japan to experience its unique culture and beautiful nature, but it’s less likely they’ll end up in Kyushu, let alone Nagasaki. However, Viola started a new research position at Nagasaki University last month, while Erik is frantically pursuing his Taiwanese PhD degree from here. But of course, we are exploring Nagasaki and its surroundings as well, and there are a few things we’ve noticed and want to share with you all. We’re sitting in a little coffee shop right now, while... - [How sustainable tourism can help revive underpopulated regions of Japan](https://onsgo.org/how-sustainable-tourism-can-help-revive-underpopulated-regions-of-japan/): Three PhD students from the NTNU – Elok, Wan-Jou, and Viola – recently joined the Sakura Science Research Exchange program, which was fully funded by the Japan Science and Technology Agency (JST). This program aimed to foster international collaboration and explore the particulars of community development through natural resource use in Japan’s shrinking societies. The project brought together students with diverse research interests related to sustainability, creating a dynamic environment for translocal learning. In partnership with Nagasaki University, we studied rural revitalization initiatives in aging and depopulating regions of Japan. The program brought us to the remote Tsushima Island and... - [Jade mountain in one day: summiting Taiwan's highest peak in a single, epic hike](https://onsgo.org/summiting-taiwans-highest-peak-in-a-single-day/): When you’re pressed for time, but still want to do a high mountain hike or just when getting a multi day permit for Jade mountain is difficult, there is an option to hike up there in a single day. We could not get hold of  a two day permit for Jade mountain during the weekend; chances are quite slim as you need to join the lottery. But, as Johan Cruijf would have said, “Elk nadeel heb een voordeel”, which translates to “every disadvantage has its advantage”, so when we found out it is easier to get a day permit, together... - [Malaysia](https://onsgo.org/malaysia/) - [Taiwan](https://onsgo.org/taiwan/) - [Exploring new heights](https://onsgo.org/exploring-new-heights/): Yes, we’re making good progress on our PhDs, and of course, we have a million adventure plans, but none are set in stone. In the meantime, we’re happily enjoying our time in Taiwan with our new dinky toy while we finalize our doctoral programs. But we’re too excited to talk about work right now! While you might not associate Taiwan with sports directly (all the more because at international sports events, it goes by the name of Chinese Taipei), the country has extraordinary opportunities for people who are into sports and like to explore their limits. In this short blog,... - [The Wulai Historic Cross Trails: Hidden Gems south of Taipei](https://onsgo.org/the-wulai-historic-cross-trails-hidden-gems-south-of-taipei/): Three scienic historical trails can be found within an hour of Taipei, but unfortunately, it can be challenging to find comprehensive information about these trails online; translations from the websites made by the Taiwan government can be messy and often lack detailed information, making it harder for international visitors to get up to date information. This blog will provide you with some updates and practical information you need to plan for a successful hike. Wulai village is located about 1 hour south of Taipei by public transportation. It is known for its scenic beauty, indigenous culture, and natural hot springs.... - [Hiking Kumano Kodo in winter (Nakahechi route)](https://onsgo.org/hiking-kumano-kodo-in-winter-nakahechi-route/): Japan has many long-distance trails with great history, but one stood out for us in particular; the ancient Kumano Kodo pilgrimage trail. The Kumano Kodo is a pilgrimage network along the steep mountain ridges of the remote Kii Peninsula in the Wakayama Prefecture, circa 100 km South of Osaka. It is a great route to explore the cultural and natural heritage, and traverse mountain ridges where pilgrims have walked for over a 1.000 years. Moreover, this is the only of two UNESCO World Heritage trails (together with the famous Camino de Santiago pilgrimage in Spain). We selected the Nakachegi route,... - [Three ways to the Wuling pass (3275m, Hehuanshan)](https://onsgo.org/three-ways-to-the-wuling-pass-3275m-hehuanshan/): One of the most iconic places in Taiwan is the Wuling pass, where the road reaches a staggering 3275m. It’s of course known as a great place to hike with mount Hehuan (no mountain permits needed), and the finish line of the yearly KOM challenge, where you bike through the Taroko gorge up this point. This is however not the only way to get there, as there are three roads leading up to this epic spot. Below are the routes for these three approaches. Taroko – Wuling – Lishan Yilan – Lishan – Wuling Puli – Wuling - [Japan](https://onsgo.org/japan/): 2025 2024 2023 – Kumano Kodo trail and Kyoto + Nara 2019 – Okinawa - [Viola's 5 Stunning Cycling Routes in Taiwan, published on Gomad Nomad Travel Magazine!](https://onsgo.org/violas-5-stunning-cycling-routes-in-taiwan-published-on-gomad-nomad-travel-magazine/): External publication 5 Stunning Cycling Routes in Taiwan ​Beyond Route #1 Cycling in Taiwan is amazing!

What are we doing?](https://onsgo.org/update-from-taiwan-who-are-we-where-are-we-going-what-are-we-doing/): On this rainy Sunday afternoon, we finally decided to write a short recap of last year. It has been a while, but what can we say? The life of a PhD student can be  busy…especially since we try to get everything out of our life abroad and travel to all corners of Taiwan in our precious free time😉 Fortunately, we found a great way to do that! Last year we bought our own sweet rusty ride; a minivan which we could buy very cheaply from a surf dude who left Taiwan and needed to get rid of it.

Lately however, it seems that Taiwan’s fortune has run out, as COVID-19 cases are on the rise, big brother China’s aggression seems increasingly present and long lasting droughts depleted fresh water reservoirs. You might have heard about this, as global news outlets have reported on these issues; it was the Economist that even provocatively labeled Taiwan as... - [Orchid Island article featured on the Matador Network](https://onsgo.org/orchid-island-article-featured-on-the-matador-network/): Today Viola’s article on Taro and Orchid Island is published by the Matador Network.

Spot the typical Taiwanese birds (Formosan Magpie). - [ONSGO](https://onsgo.org/onsgo/): What started as a design for a wedding gift, turned into the logo of our website. Onsgo is a a combination of the first three letters of Viola’s last name (adopted by Erik at the wedding) and the word ‘go’, to symbolize that the ‘van Onselens’ have a tendency to go and explore. - [Jan van Onselen](https://onsgo.org/jan-van-onselen/): For Jan van Onselen, Dutch artist of water paintings, we designed his website and logo on the right hand side.

Especially the middle part of the route was beautiful, but also the for us unknown west coast was surprisingly nice. We tipped our toes in both the Taiwan Strait and the Pacific Ocean, and were sunned how similar dunes and beaches at the west coast are to Dutch beaches and dunes. For the GCN’s UK coast to coast ride, find the video below: - [Taiwan: coffee or tea?](https://onsgo.org/taiwan-coffee-or-tea/): When people think of Taiwan, Oolong tea might be one of the first things that comes to mind. Taiwan has a long history with tea and just outside of the capital Taipei, many teafields can be found in the hills at Maokong or in Pinglin district. Tea houses are dotted around the hills, where you can drink the most exquisite teas and experience the many customs this teaculture brings along. However, coffee is currently in equal demand and coffee places pop up like mushrooms all over Taiwan; how come this island filled with tea lovers, turned into such a coffee... - [ONSGO 2021 Calendar](https://onsgo.org/onsgo-2021-calendar/): To celebrate a new year and a new website, we’ve made some calendars for you!

As it’s near Taipei and a beautiful route, we recommend it for a challenging ride during the week. - [Why Taiwan?](https://onsgo.org/why-taiwan/): “Why Taiwan”, is a question we often get asked while meeting new people and connecting with co-workers, but also randomly when travelling around Taiwan. It’s a question that makes sense, people want to know why we are stranded here. But the way it is being asked often differs; it’s not only asked out of interest, but also out of pure disbelieve. Especially Taiwanese seem surprised: “why did we choose to live in Taiwan out of all the places around the world?” This surprises us, because Taiwan has so much to offer! People tend to think negatively about their own country... - [Buddha's hand a.k.a The devils hand](https://onsgo.org/buddhas-hand-a-k-a-the-devils-hand/): A must do for cyclists in the Taipei area. An insane rout that will take you up and around Yangmingshan National park, in 5 of the beaten track climbs. We did this during summer, but considering the heat (around 40 degrees C) it might be a better idea in spring, autumn or winter. - [Happy new, new year](https://onsgo.org/happy-new-new-year/): We are one year in Taiwan today, what a year it has been!
