Meet your guide and get ready for a 5-kilometer hike. Begin your ascent to Don village, known for its breathtaking paddy fields. From there, follow peaceful village paths to discover Quan and Uoi, scenic and less-traveled villages tucked away from the crowds.
Next, visit Lan village, a special place where the authentic life of the Thai ethnic minority is still alive. This is the only village that has preserved its traditional weaving craft despite the changes of modern life. Witness how locals still make their fabrics by hand.
Continue the trek with another 3 kilometres into the hidden part of Lan village, where people live humbly with nature. Observe their daily activities and immerse yourself in the simplicity of rural life. Then, walk through lush jungle paths to reach Long Village, where you will visit a duck farm raising Co Lung ducks, Pu Luong’s finest duck. These ducks are bred, hatched, and raised here, known for their exceptional taste and recognised by the Intellectual Property Office of Vietnam with a Geographical Indication certificate.
Take a refreshing break by the waterfall. A car (or bicycle if pre-booked) will take you 6 kilometres along village roads to reach Hieu Village. From here, take a short walk to a local restaurant nestled next to Hieu Waterfall. Enjoy a delightful lunch with the soothing sounds of water and nature all around you.
After lunch, take your time to swim and unwind in the largest waterfall of Pu Luong Nature Reserve, an unforgettable moment in crystal-clear waters. Then, continue your walk to explore the upper part of Hieu Village, a more remote area, before gradually following the stream down to the main road. Enjoy scenic views of surrounding mountains and small scattered homes, glimpses of local life along the way.
Note: Guests who ride bicycles will follow the main roads after lunch and time at the waterfall, visiting some villages along the way before returning to the starting point.
You can expect a car pickup between 3:30 – 4:00 PM, arriving back at the hotel by 4:30 PM for some well-deserved relaxation. Say goodbye to your guide and end the tour.
