Tour Itinerary
8.30 Pick you up at your hotel and depart to Ba Vi National Park (about 50km from Hanoi City, if you are adventurous enough, riding a motorbike would be great also).

Arrive at the Ba Vi Park, relax by visiting the Cactus garden where up to 1,200 cactus species are planted and preserved here. Then our car will take you to Pine forest where you would do trekking to the Ngoc Hoa cave which was shaped naturally and magically by the fault of the geology.

Continue your trip by squeezing among the dense bushes to discover the neglected ruins of the French colonists like: ancient church, French summer camps, French Military zone. Especially, located at Point 600m is the historical battle of Ba Vi Regiment on Dec 31, 1951 that successfully broke off the Da river defense line of the French, leading to the victory of Hoa Binh campaign in 1952.

Have lunch at the food zone nearby and enjoy specialties from the mountainous area of Ba Vi park.

Continue your wonderful hiking trip by visit Thuong temple – a hollowed site for worshipping Tan Vien Saint. Only tens of steps more would let you stand on the Tan Vien peak (or Vong Canh peak, or the viewpoint) where dense of fogs and clouds cling to your feet, make you feel like standing at the border between heaven and earth. Then change your direction to the King peak where you would climb up 779 stone steps toward the west to visit a temple dedicated to Ho Chi Minh and Bao Thien tower which are called as two of the most hallowed regions in Ba Vi National Park.
