A Peaceful Escape to Ba Vi National Park & Thien Son Suoi Nga’s Natural Beauty

Ba Vi Mountain Exploration: From Mountain Trails to Refreshing Streams and Waterfalls

Ba Vi National Park is one of the top tourist attractions in Hanoi. While it has long been a favorite weekend getaway for local Vietnamese, it still remains a hidden gem for many international visitors doing trips to Vietnam. Most nature lovers and adventure seekers visit Ba Vi to hike through its lush forests, explore the mysterious French Ruins, or conquer the mountain’s three famous peaks – Tan Vien Peak, King Peak, and Ngoc Hoa Peak. Reaching the summits rewards hikers with breathtaking panoramic views over the surrounding countryside and the majestic Da River

In some of our Ba Vi trekking day tours before, many travelers have successfully completed the challenging hikes to Ba Vi’s famous peaks. While they were amazed by the breathtaking mountain scenery and the rewarding sense of accomplishment, hours of trekking often left them feeling hot and tired.

During the hike, our tour guides are frequently asked the same question: “Is there a beautiful place nearby where we can cool off and relax?”

The answer is a definite yes

There are a number of well-known eco-tourism resorts at the foot of Ba Vi Mountain, including Ao Vua, Suoi Tien, Khoang Xanh, and Thac Da.

When is the ideal time to visit Thien Son Suoi Nga Eco-tourism complex?

The same with Northern Vietnam weather, in winter & spring seasons ( between November and April), the climate is cooler down, the temperature is ranging from 10-20oC, dry weather with little rain, so waterfalls are not really so impressive on its fullest beauty. And if you would love to dip yourselves Nga stream’s water or waterfalls, it will be quite cold to enjoy swimming in that cold water.

The ideal time is in Summer & Autumn (from mid April to October), you feel hot with the summer heat of the lowland, Ba Vi mountains & its resorts will be a right choice for your family vacation. The summer rain makes the waterfall in its fullest beauty and what an amazing experience is to bathe in cool fresh swimming pools with rain water running thru the waterfalls ( really clean & fresh from nature)
