Stop 1
Bach Ma National Park boasts a rich diversity of flora and fauna, along with naturally stunning landscapes. One of the park’s intriguing sights is the old villas, which remain in the jungle despite being damaged during the American War and reclaimed by nature.
Bach Ma is also an excellent spot for panoramic views of natural wonders like Cau Hai Lagoon and Chan May Port. We will start our hike along a forest path to the summit trail, which extends a few kilometers past Bach Ma Morin at the end of the park road. The trail leads to a pavilion offering 360-degree views of the surrounding area, often shrouded in mist and perched above the clouds.
Next, we will trek to Do Quyen Waterfall along a 1.5-kilometer path through dense jungle). If we are lucky, we may spot birds up close along the foot trails, where we will enjoy a picnic lunch.
