NIGHT 1: HANOI – NIGHT TRAIN TO LAO CAI (- / – / -)

Your trip starts with an overnight train journey from Hanoi to the border town of Lao Cai which departs at 21.55.

DAY 1: SAPA – TRAM TON (- / L / D)

The train will arrive at Lao Cai train station at approximately 06:00. There will be a vehicle waiting to transfer you to Sapa. The drive to Sapa is only 33 km, but it takes around 1.5 hours. At about 09.30, you will take a bus (17km) to Tram Ton Pass, the highest pass in Vietnam located at 2,100m above sea level. You can visit the Silver Waterfall en route. Enjoy the wonderful scenery and then begin the strenuous trek to the peak. After roughly 6 hours of trekking through the primitive jungles, across the numerous small streams and bamboo forests, you will reach the height of 2,800m. Time for camping, dinner preparations and spending the first night on the mountain in the heart of nature.

DAY 2: FANXIPAN PEAK (B / L / -)

You will have breakfast at the camp and then head for the summit by way of pine and yellow bamboo forests. After an arduous 4-hour climb, you will finally conquer the roof of Vietnam and Indochina. Spend up to one hour enjoying breathtaking views of the splendid rolling mountains, the small villages of Lai Chau Province and the picturesque town of Sapa. After you have lunch, you will descend the mountain to Sin Chai Village of the Black H’mong. You will then travel to Sapa for the overnight train back to Hanoi.

* You will arrive in Hanoi early morning the next day, at around 06:00

If Europe has The Alps, Vietnam has Mt. Fansipan. This “Tonkinese Alps” serves as the highlight of all in Sapa, the premier trekking base of Vietnam. Gaining its reputation as the Roof of Indochina, Mt. Fansipan is king of all hiking trails in Vietnam, Laos & Cambodia, intimidating all other peaks with its 3,143m-tall stature.

You will be traversing up and down the ridges, sometimes covered with vegetation, sometimes exposed to the sun. This trail is an everyday norm for locals as young as 15 years old to hunt for food, and gather woods and herbs for a living. Do you think you are fit enough to take on the challenge?

Disconnect to connect. Taking a 2-day journey into Mt. Fansipan disconnects you from the hustles & bustles of the city while immersing you with the peace and serenity of nature. You’ll see different kinds of plants along the way, spot a variety of bird species and smell the crisp mountain scent. Are you a nature-lover willing to leave the comforts of the city?
