Dive into Vietnam’s Tu Lan-Hang Tien caves on a two-day jungle trek that blends raw adventure with effortless style.
If you’re looking for a two-day adventure escape into Vietnam’s wild untouched beauty, the Tu Lan-Hang Tien Cave in Phong Nha is the perfect mix of adventure, nature, and a dash of local charm.
The journey kicks off early with a pickup in Phong Nha town. After a thorough safety briefing, gear up and set off into the hills. The hike starts with a short uphill climb that rewards with panoramic views before descending into a peaceful river valley where you stop for a quick snack. The real highlight of the day is exploring Hang Tien 1 Cave, a jaw-dropping underground world with green calcite formations, wavy limestone walls, and layered terraces that look like nature’s version of rice paddies. After soaking it all in and snapping about 1,000 photos, have lunch near the cave entrance and cool off with a swim in a hidden natural pool, the ultimate jungle spa. Back in the village, check into the cozy River Bungalow at Tu Lan Lodge and, later, join dinner at a local villager’s home. Think delicious home-cooked dishes, lots of laughter, and learning about rural life, a warm and humbling experience to cap off the day.
Day two starts with a hearty breakfast then begins the trek through cornfields and crosses the Rào Nan River to reach Rat Cave. Donning helmets and headlamps, venture into the dark to discover glittering stalactites and even a heart-shaped rock, nature’s way of saying “I love you”. The adventure continues to Hung Ton Cave, where you climb a 10-meter ladder and explore a mysterious underground river. Wrap up with a lunch by the stunning To Mo Lake, the one seen in the movie “The Immortal”, before heading back for a much-needed shower and cold drink.
If you love nature, don’t mind a bit of sweat, and want to explore caves that look straight out of a fantasy movie, this tour is an unforgettable experience. Reach out to sales.vietnam@khiri.com as the adventure awaits!
