This adventure/ecological tour will take you to the most unique and beautiful landscapes around Hue City where you can enjoy a day trekking away from the crowds in beautiful Bach Ma National Park.

It is a hill-station founded by the French during the colonial period in the early 1930’s and it is not on the popular tourist route so you are likely to enjoy this natural wonder away from the crowds.
Our local guide and driver will pick you up at your hotel in Hue City and bring you to Bach Ma National Park, the mountainous area located about 45km from the city centre and 1.45m above sea level. Upon arrival, you will visit Bach Ma's information centre to learn about the ecological system of the Park.
Trek along the trails through the forest to Do Quyen, the Rhododendron waterfalls at a height of 300 meters. Continue to Ngu Ho (Five Lakes), where you can relax and enjoy a swim in the jungle. A picnic lunch will be served.
Later, head to the summit for the beautiful views. At the end of the tour, you will be driven back to your hotel.
This tour will take you to many significant and special places, including the sanctuary of the ancient Champa kingdom, My Son. You will also visit the cave-riddled Phong Nha Ke Bang National Park and the ancient towns of Hoi An & Hue.
