Day 2: Pu Luong, trek to Eo Ken and Kho Muong villages (6 hours)

 The daily life here starts early, it will be interesting for you to get up at the first sign of day light and take part in the activities in the morning, or take a stroll around Hang village before having breakfast with our new Thai friends.
Start trekking at 8:00 am. Today we will be walking for a approximately 5 to 6 hours. The first section is hard with some steep climbs and stream crossings. The second stage is glorious with beautiful views of the valley, rice terraces, rich rain forests, and meandering streams. Picnic lunch on the way at Eo Ken village. Arrival in Kho Muong village is always special as the setting of the village is perhaps the most beautiful in Vietnam, nestled between steep karst mountains with rice terraces in the afternoon sun. Spend our second night nearby in a typical Thai eco - stilt home in Kho Muong village (tours in Vietnam).

Day 3: Pu Luong, trek to Hin village (6 hours)(B,L,D)

The sounds of village life will tell you that morning has arrived. Breakfast then trek to Hin village (5 - 6 hours). On this route we will encounter some steep climbs and more stream crossings. Along the way we will visit an incredible cave, only recently discovered, now protected by the Forest Rangers.
The trekking will become more and more remote although one is never that far from a villager tending their fields. Pass steep limestone mountains and curiosty conjuring caves, through the dense rain forests all inside the borders of the Pu Luong Nature Reserve and onto Nua village. After this tough trek, there is nothing more refreshing then dunking yourself in a cool stream. Surely you will not be the only one taking part in some of the fun of stream bathing!

Our tours in Vietnam lunch will be served here followed by a little relaxation from the heat of the day before continuing to Hin village of the Thai people. We will be welcomed as honoured guests, then have dinner with the local people at their traditional home. Free time for you to learn more about the traditional customs and culture here. Prepare picnic lunch for the next day before falling asleep.

This challenging hike wanders through the biodiversity of the Pu Luong Nature Reserve. We will have a picnic lunch inside the Pu Luong Nature Reserve, then continuing our trek to Ton village.
