Highway 7 (台7線), Northern Cross-Island Highway (北部橫貫公路), Taiwan.

Highway 7, Northern Cross-Island Highway, a highway connect Taoyuan (桃園) and Yilan (宜蘭) county. Not very many people choice this highway to do Cross-Island, because take time and some section road not easy to drive. Most people they're not over to another county, cause both side all can be one day tour. The view also different than both county. Near by Taoyuan county, you can see canyon terrain. and neay by Yilan county, you can see forest and cliff. But if you like mountain, this highway good to you. This highway also can connect toTàipíng mountain (太平山), Wuling Farm (武陵農場), Lishan (梨山), all nice tourist spot of Taiwan.

台7線, 北橫公路, 一條連接桃園到宜蘭縣的公路. 並不是很多人選這一條路走, 因為費時, 有些路段也不容易開. 多數人也不會選擇過縣境, 因為兩邊都可以為一日行. 兩縣的景色也不同. 靠近桃園縣境是賞峽谷地形, 靠近宜蘭縣境是賞森林和峭壁. 但如果您喜歡山, 這公路很適合您. 這公路尚可連接至太平山, 武陵農場, 梨山等...都是台灣很棒的旅點.
