Tucked into the farthest reaches of Northeast Vietnam, Ha Giang offers some of the most dramatic and rewarding cycling terrain in the country. Here, winding mountain roads snake through towering limestone karsts, cut across jade-green rice terraces, and plunge into misty valleys that feel untouched by time.
Our mountain biking tours are built for riders who want more than just a workout — they want a journey. Each route is tailor-made to challenge your legs and open your eyes. From technical climbs to sweeping descents, you’ll ride through landscapes as raw as they are breathtaking.
Along the way, the scenery shifts from dense pine forests to stark cliffside paths and lush river valleys. But the real heart of the ride lies in the villages. Wooden stilt houses with thatched roofs line the hillsides, home to Hmong, Tay, Dao, and Nung communities who’ve lived among these ridges for centuries. You’ll pedal past locals harvesting crops by hand, children waving from hillside trails, and elders weaving textiles under the sun.
The journey takes you deep into the north: Lao Cai, Bac Ha, Hoang Su Phi, Yen Minh, Dong Van, Meo Vac, Bao Lac, Cao Bang, and the serene waters of Ba Be Lake. These aren’t tourist hubs — they’re living, breathing communities where tradition runs strong and every stop is a window into mountain life.
Expect long days in the saddle, cool mountain air, and a connection to Vietnam that only comes when you ride off the map. This is more than cycling. It’s immersion — into nature, culture, and a part of the world few ever reach.
