Hiking matters #178: Outdoor shops and camping gear in Taipei ...
Since we stayed near the Taipei Main Station , I checked out the outdoor shops near Zhongshan North Road (adjacent to the Zhongxiao West Road ). I guess this is the main outdoor hub for the city. There are several of them there, at least four, and they offer the whole range, from Atunas gear (a local, famous outdoor brand) to waterproof pants to a variety of stoves.
