Kim Giao forest

You will enjoy the biodiversity with green layers of trees covered along the way, bringing fresh air and an authentic feeling of nature.

The road gradually increases in difficulty, with some bends around the sharp, rugged cliffs, but uncomplicated enough that the majority of visitors can experience it.

Especially the last 300m before reaching the top of Ngu Lam, with cliffs and surrounded by old tree roots, will be a very cool experience.

When you reach the top of Ngu Lam, you can stretch your eyesight over cloud seas to a far distance and view the whole National Park lying in the marvelous emerald water of Lan Ha Bay.

Take a short rest for photography in 20 minutes. Then walk down to return to the foot of the mountain.

10:30 Our local tour guide leads you to Trung Trang Cave, a natural cave system through the mountain with a length of about 300m and has stalactite formations with various unique shapes.

Trung Trang cave also preserves many traces of the Vietnam nation's heroic history.

Legend has it that foreign invaders have repeatedly invaded Cat Ba archipelago because this is an important strategic site of our country.

Monarch Trung Trang summoned men to the sea to fight the enemy to protect the homeland and the people on the island.

After helping the people repel the enemy, Monarch Trung Trang returns to this cave to protect the island's peaceful life.

Since then, the people on the island named it Trung Trang cave.

11:30 After visiting Trung Trang cave, the transfer picks you up and returns to Cat Ba town, ending the journey with the best feelings!

Trekking Faqs

I've never trekked before. Is this a good option for me?

Maybe. Our treks are rugged, including sections of scrambling, and many people find them quite difficult. You are, after all, following goat trails in a Vietnamese limestone jungle.

Can we take our kids trekking?

No. Although our treks are strenuous (although rewarding) for adults, we trek on goat paths that require some amount of scrambling on sharp rock and are not suitable for children.

What if i don't want to get on the back of a motorbike?

Don't worry! We'll call a taxi to pick you up.

Will my trek go into the national park?

Since we prefer to stay in a less-traveled area of Cat Ba Island, we do not normally run treks in the national park. If you are interested in trekking in the national park specifically, contact us, and we can customize a trip for you.

What should I wear?

1. Hat.
2. Suncream.
3. Insect Repellent Cream.
4. Sturdy, close-toed shoes. Long pants may be helpful to protect against insects.
