Get Local
Over these four days, you will experience the warm hospitality of northern Vietnam. The district of Da Bac is home to the Dao, Muong ethnic minority groups. These locals will welcome you into their homes and introduce you to the local culture. Get cosy over dinner, and traditional folk song and dance. Learn the local legends. Toast your host with locally made rice wine.
You’ll also have the chance to see Da Bac CBT’s work in action and understand the local development context. Learn how Vietnam’s largest hydroelectric dam has brought both power and hardship to the region, and visit our livelihood projects to see what we’re doing to help.
Trek with a Purpose
Our trekking routes take you off the beaten tourist path, through fertile valleys, rich bamboo forest, golden rice terraces, and local ethnic villages. From cliff sides, take in breath taking views of Vietnam’s iconic karst peaks jutting up from the sparkling waters of Hoa Binh Lake. During stays in the villages, trek through lush bamboo forests, enjoy a swim or kayak on the lake.
At Da Bac Community-based Tourism, our approach to tourism focuses on the community. Our initiative is community-led to ensure that benefits generated from tourism stay in the community. Your participation helps build a better, sustainable livelihood for the locals. Trek with us. Trek with a purpose.
