More ways to explore the area's outdoor wonders
You start before sunrise, pedals whispering on quiet asphalt as pine-scented air climbs with you out of Da Lat. The route threads through green vegetable beds and glasshouses of Van Thanh flower village, then pushes over Ta Nung pass where coffee terraces slope toward hidden lakes. The river roars at Elephant Waterfall—water daring you to stand close enough to feel the spray—and the route slows into the hush around Truc Lam Zen Monastery and Tuyen Lam Lake.
