Tour overview

Discovered in the 1930s by the French and quickly established as an exclusive, high-altitude hill station retreat, Bach Ma National Park is a destination steeped in both history and unparalleled natural beauty. Situated at an elevation of 1,450 meters above sea level, Bach Ma is proudly dubbed the "green lung of Central Vietnam." It boasts a refreshingly cool and pristine climate year-round, resulting from a unique geographical convergence of coastal breezes and high mountain terrain. Today, the park remains a remarkably untouched, wild sanctuary in Hue, often likened to a rare earthly paradise. Joining this expedition, you will have the unparalleled opportunity to witness clouds dancing around the mountain peaks and fully immerse yourself in a majestic, awe-inspiring natural landscape.

Highlights

  • Trekking through lush jungle trails to witness the towering, magnificent Do Quyen (Rhododendron) Waterfall
  • Navigating the highly scenic Ngu Ho (Five Lakes) route to discover crystal-clear, cascading natural pools

Itinerary
Day 1: Hue – Bach Ma National Park

08:00 Board our comfortable transfer vehicle departing for Bach Ma National Park. Upon arrival, our first stop will be the Park's Visitor Center, where you will gain fascinating insights into the region's rich flora and fauna, as well as an overview of the protected trail network. Our expert guide will also conduct a comprehensive briefing on essential jungle trekking skills and safety guidelines.

Following the briefing, we will take a short drive to the main trailhead. From here, we embark on a captivating hike along a shaded forest path leading to the spectacular Do Quyen Waterfall. Plunging dramatically from a height of over 300 meters, this is undeniably one of Bach Ma's greatest natural wonders. Enjoy a refreshing, revitalizing dip in the cool stream before sitting down for a delightful picnic lunch right by the water's edge.

14:00 Hike back out to the main trail, where our vehicle will be waiting to transport us to the designated camping area. After checking in and setting up our tents, we will dedicate the remainder of the afternoon to an invigorating trek toward the mountain's summit. This route takes us through diverse, naturally stratified vegetation zones typical of a pristine tropical rainforest. If luck is on our side, we might spot giant black squirrels or the true "queens of the primates"—the exceedingly rare Red-shanked Douc Langurs—gracefully leaping through the high canopy.

Reaching the Bach Ma summit (over 1,400 meters above sea level) right at sunset provides a magical, breathtaking panoramic view of the vast natural masterpiece that surrounds the mountain.

17:30 As the sun dips below the horizon, we will hike down to the "KM 0" marker, where our transfer vehicle will pick us up and bring us back to the rest area.

18:30 Enjoy a hearty, well-deserved dinner at a local restaurant, which is uniquely housed in an original, meticulously preserved French colonial building dating back to the 1930s. Following dinner, the group will gather around a warm, crackling campfire to share stories and relax before retiring to the tents for a peaceful night's sleep.

Day 2: Bach Ma National Park – Hue

06:30 Wake up early to the crisp, fresh mountain air to catch a beautiful sunrise. Enjoy a wholesome, energizing outdoor breakfast fully surrounded by the tranquility of nature.

08:00 Fully recharged, we will resume our exploration of Bach Ma's pristine wilderness. We will trek along a scenic trail leading to Ngu Ho (The Five Lakes)—a sequential series of five cascading, crystal-clear, and breathtakingly pure natural pools hidden deep within the forest.

10:30 Continuing our journey, we will navigate a specialized forest path that leads us past a dedicated medicinal plant conservation garden. Here, our knowledgeable guide will introduce you to a fascinating array of rare, traditional medicinal herbs and provide insights into the vibrant insect life thriving in this ecosystem. Upon exiting the trail, our transfer vehicle will be ready to pick us up.

12:00 Sit down for a highly satisfying lunch to replenish your energy after the morning's trek.
