You step off the van and the air changes—cool, green and humid, as if the forest itself inhales the day. The trail climbs quickly from the valley, and sunlight slips between broadleaf canopies while distant gullies echo creek water daring you onward. By late afternoon the Truc Lam Bach Ma monastery sits quiet above Truoi Lake, Buddha watching over a patchwork of cloud and forest.

You step off the van and the air changes—cool, green and humid, as if the forest itself inhales the day. The trail climbs quickly from the valley, and sunlight slips between broadleaf canopies while distant gullies echo creek water daring you onward. By late afternoon the Truc Lam Bach Ma monastery sits quiet above Truoi Lake, Buddha watching over a patchwork of cloud and forest.
Bach Ma National Park occupies the Annamite Range where tropical lowland and montane ecosystems meet; granite ridgelines carve steep valleys and old French villas cling like stage props to Hai Vong Dai. The park’s history mixes colonial-era hill stations, wartime routes and an evolving conservation effort focused on protecting rare birds and orchids.
Over two days you’ll climb to Hai Vong Dai for panoramic views of Lang Co Bay, trek a 17‑km route through primary jungle, pause at Five Lakes for a swim, and trace the Do Quyen waterfall’s course. Guides introduce bird species and point out colonial masonry while a forest guard accompanies steeper sections.
Practical side: trails are steep, muddy after rain and rooted underfoot—expect 600–900 m of cumulative elevation gain across both days. Wear sturdy boots with traction, carry 2–3 L water, and pack a lightweight rain shell and insect repellent. Start early to avoid midday heat on lower slopes and to get best light from Hai Vong Dai.
This private, two-day tour includes an overnight at Phong Lan Villa, meals, guide and transfers back to Da Nang via the dramatic Hai Van Pass—an efficient, scenic loop that blends wildlife, history and serious trekking.

Bach Ma is cooler than the coast but can be wet; bring rain protection year-round and layer for temperature swings on ridgelines.
Bach Ma served as a colonial hill station and later a strategic wartime area; French-built villas and hill retreats remain in ruins along higher trails.
The park protects transitional ecosystems and several endemic species; visitors are asked to stay on trails, avoid disturbing wildlife, and pack out trash.
