Sapa -
Heavens Gate - Binh Lu - Tam Duong- Phongtho - Sapa
( Day trip or 2 day trip from Sapa)
We
do organize the trip every
days not only
on Sunday
for the
market,
because we
pass trough some minorities villages and we can enjoy theirs
daily life and be amazed by the landscape
From the beginning of the day it is uphill, where we will use a
lot of energy. We have to rise about 350 m, which will led us to
the highest piece of road in Viet Nam, the Tram Tom pass, also
called Heavens Gate.
We start out from Sapa at around 8.30 am, ready to explore some
of the most fascinating scenery in Vietnam.
From Heavens Gate the scenery and views are amazing.
We now begin a sometimes steep descend towards the Nam Mu River.
The road conditions here are bother good and bad. We take it
easy, we reach the village of Chu Va which is inhabited by the
Black Hmong minority.
It is still going downhill. And the ride will bring us to Binh
Lu. In Binh Lu we make a break for a glass of local beer and
after look around in the village and enjoy the local life.
From Binh Lu we restart to Tam Duong, on the way you will
appreciate that amazing scenery and discover all the long the
way the Tai Lu, Tai Laos minority people whose textiles are
intriguing.
After the village of
Tam Duong will still have 15 Kilometers before to reach Phong
tho, where we will stop to take our lunch (visit the market on
Sunday).
In the afternoon we will return to Binh Lu by inside land.
A
long day of activity, adventure, friendly people and off course
a fantastic nature experience is almost over. It is now time for
us to ride back to SaPa.
