Embark on a 3-day adventure from Hanoi to Ba Be National Park, home to Vietnam’s largest natural freshwater lake. Paddle through hidden caves, trek deep into lush jungles, and meet the Tay people in their lakeside villages. Designed for responsible travelers, this journey combines raw nature, local culture, and sustainable exploration—revealing the untouched beauty of Northern Vietnam’s wild heart.

Along the scenic drive, stop for lunch before continuing to Boc Lom, where your first adventure begins.
After a short safety briefing, grab your kayak and paddle down the Nang River, gliding through the mysterious Puong Cave and into Ba Be Lake. Pass limestone cliffs, small islands like Widow Island, and peaceful Tay villages along the way.
