Bus from Chiayi railway station to Hualien Train Station

Sad to say, I don%26#39;t think there is such a bus service. When I was planning my trip, I thought that route would be the shortest but central Taiwan is very mountainous, almost impossible to pass through directly.

If you really want to take this route, it will be about 7 to 8 hours of driving.

Just to share, I took public buses to Ching Jing, visited the farm, spent a night there before taking a cab to Hualien the next day.

Bus terminals are located on both sides of the Chiayi train station.

There is no direct bus link between Chiayi and Hualien. Fastest way to hualien is to take the THSR to Taipei, followed by a 2 hour ride on the Taroko express. Total trip time is about 4 to 5 hours.

Or you can take the Tze-Chiang train down south, and transfer to another train either at Taitung or Kaohsiung. This route is more scenic, and you get to see more of rural Taiwan, but it takes about 7 to 8 hours.
