BAC HA + CENTRE LOOP
3 days / 3 nights
Night 1: Hanoi - Lao Cai - Night train. ~10 h.
Departure from Hanoi at 9.30 pm.
Arrival in Lao Cai at 6.10 am.
Day 1: Lao Cai - Bac Ha. ~75 km, ~2 h.
We propose to ride directly to Bac Ha on sealed mountainous road with many curves. It is only 2 hours riding, thus we have time to stop a lot: go walking, visiting ethnics villages (H'mong village of Ban Pho to meet H'mong women union for example) or depending on your date go to ethnic market (Can Cau on Saturday morning, Bac Ha on Sunday).
Night in Hotel.
Day 2: Bac Ha - Luc Yen - Vu Linh. ~180 km, ~6 h.
We start the day by strolling around Bac Ha to meet with many ethnic villages in this area. We then move towards the lake Thac Ba. From Bac Ha to Luc Yen, the road is easy and sealed all the way. After Luc Yen, we take a small dirt track bordered by palm trees, in the middle of the karsts. We arrive at Vu Linh, a traditional village of Dao where we sleep in the family of our friends. The welcome is exceptional.
Day 3: Vu Linh - Hanoi. ~180 km, ~7 h.
Pass through the lake with motorbike by boat. Come back to Hanoi by Song Thao. Very nice road.
