Language Walk

Walk with friends, enjoy nature or urban landscape and exchange and practice your languages!

What is a Language Walk

We want to combine a walk or hike with language exchange or practice. The walks we select are typically relatively easy hikes of 2-4 hours and accessible to most people. Languages: You can practice many languages depending on the location. We encourage everybody to contribute in their mother tongue and in other languages as well and learn more.
Currently, most Language Walks take place in the Greater Taipei Area.

Terms of Use

We are a group of friends that like to practice languages and walk or hike while doing so.
1. You are responsible for your own safety, gear, transport, food and drink.
2. Please be kind to everybody else.
3. Reach out to new people and make them feel welcome.
4. Help provide space for small languages like French or Spanish to be practiced.

Our previous walks

  • December 15, 2024: we met at Taipei Zoo and took the Gondola up to Maokong where we experienced local tea culture. This time, we were only 17 people and focussed mostly on Spanish, English and Mandarin with a bit of Bahasa and German in the mix. It was very cold up in the mountains and surprisingly there are some banana and papaya trees up there. Thanks all for joining and please have a look on our reddit group to review many new words that we learnt.

  • November 17, 2024: against the backdrop of a rainy day, we were still more than 20 people. This time, we focussed a lot on local culture. We visited the Ketagalan museum and the Hot Spring Museum and visited the local hot spring area. While the walk was short, we engaged in language sessions in English, Mandarin, German, Italian, Spanish and we had a special session of Vietnamese! Besides, we played some Polyglot games - more to come!

  • November 03, 2024: a small group of 10 language enthusiasts met at Hamasen MRT in Kaohsiung. We went over to Qijin Island to explore the island, the historic lighthouse and historic fort. Speaking Mandarin, English, German and Spanish and a bit of French and with a lot of Polyglot games.

  • October 13, 2024: 42 language walkers met in DaHu Park and walked along the little creek while speaking English, French, Spanish and Mandarin. This time, we also included Polish and German and hiked up to waterfalls and a monastery with a fantastic view.
