Trekking in Pu Luong ( Moderate ) Tour code: TREK06

The easy trekking roads through lush rice paddies or simply sitting in a local stilts house is accessible for those who do the trek on first time

Detail Tours

Vibrant, verdant green rice paddies surround the village, and dramatic hills rise up on either side of the valley. The region itself isn’t particularly stunning, however it’s when one gets out into the countryside or head into the hills that breathtaking views wait around every corner. And it is trekking that unveils its hidden natural beauty and endearing culture. In Vietnam, the white Thai ethnic group in Pu Luong have remarkably developed a network of eco-friendly accommodation, making it an ideal destination to discover the rural life. This 3 consecutive day trekking tour combines ethnic culture and pristine nature, a lot to offer given such a short trip.
