About Lang Biang Nature Reserve

Lang Biang Nature Reserve
 

Lang Biang Nature Reserve is located in the Central Highlands of Vietnam, within Lâm Đồng Province, near the city of Da Lat. The reserve spans the Lang Biang Plateau, which is characterized by rolling hills, dense tropical montane forests, and granite peaks, including the famous Lang Biang Peak reaching about 2,169 meters (7,116 feet) above sea level. The landscape varies from pine forests and broadleaf evergreen trees to rich shrubs and grasslands. This diverse habitat supports numerous species of animals, birds, and plants, some of which are endemic or rare. The area holds cultural significance for the local K’Ho ethnic minority, whose traditions and legends add depth to visitor experiences. Hiking is the most popular activity here, with several trails of varying difficulty that provide panoramic views of the Central Highlands and Da Lat’s surrounding valley. Climbing Lang Biang Peak is a highlight for visitors seeking a moderate challenge combined with spectacular sunrise or sunset vistas. The reserve also offers opportunities for bird watching, mountain biking, and camping in designated areas. Lang Biang serves as a cooler escape from the lowland heat and provides an important refuge for native flora and fauna amid regional development. Visitor appeal is enhanced by easy access from Da Lat, available local guides, and nearby accommodations. The reserve continues to be a focus for conservation while supporting sustainable outdoor recreation and cultural appreciation.
