🌿 Cat Ba National Park – Amazing Experience! 🌿 Cat Ba National Park was absolutely amazing. The hike up to Ngu Lam Peak was a bit tough at times, but 100% worth the effort. The views from the top were out of this world – lush green mountains, deep valleys, and scenery that feels untouched. If you’re visiting Cat Ba Island and enjoy nature or hiking, this is a must-do. Just bring water, good shoes, and be ready for a climb. Totally unforgettable experience!
Good for an hour or 2! Hike was not too difficult, any able bodied person can do it. We did it in 45 minutes (me and 2 kids) and there were loads of other children. Bring water as you cannot buy any after the start of the walk (there is a small restaurant at the start, but nothing after that). Long sleeves or trousers not needed I'd say (too hot) but mosquito repellent definitely yes. Beautiful view over the surrounding area. The entry fee is low and includes Trung Trang cave a little further down the road (1 km). There is a small museum with creepy animals, too. Kids loved those ;-)
It's possible to hike the trek alone without a guide to Viet Hai Village, but the path is challenging, good shoes, fitness and hiking experience would be good, some bits need to be climbed and throughout thick jungle, watch daylight hours! Takes about 2-3 hours. Ask the woman by the first restaurant after the path ends for a boat taxi back to cat ba, her sister will come pick you up in a small old fisher boat at the harbour 4km away from the village (1 hour walk), best experience to see the iconic islands and floating fisher village without some overcrowded tourist boat tour.
The tour guide is very nice and skillful. His name is Anh and he can edit the video and make a very good video tearing the tracking break time, even though it was not included in the, and he support whole journey. He will provide a lot of things if you do not have for example like some Band-Aid and also give enough time and let you to enjoy the whole journey. the national Park is amazing you can see different landscape. the jungle the rock road, some very narrow street, muddy road and the pond different kind of animal insect. For example, a lot of spider and even snake. The food also amazing and valuable, and you can refill all your energy in that village After that, you will do the cycling very beautiful scenery along the road. then we'll take a boat. The boat will go through a very long way and you enjoy the scenery along the way you won't feel the time you won't feel the distance because it's too beautiful And we also did the kayaking, which was great and then swimming also amazing. Encourage you to join this trip.
We were at this national park the other day. It was a rainy day, hence walking and climbing was not easy as some areas were slippery. Nice view and a nice and peaceful place. The museum was also nice and informative.
