Journey on Sin Chai Route to Fansipan
The Peak of Fansipan is 3143m high being proud to be the top peak in Indochina which includes Vietnam, Laos and Cambodia. This tour is about challenging this peak with your own feet. The actual route that you are bound to climb is under 1000m. But this 1000m is far from a piece of cake so you need to be in shape for this climbing journey. First of all on the beginning day of the trip, you get transported by car to the Silver waterfall from Sapa. There you can enjoy the beauty of the waterfall for some moments before heading out to the spectacular view of the lush valley in front of your eyes. The camp site is waiting for you at the height of 2800m above the sea level. You can get some relaxation here in the middle of the mountain to prepare for the climbing of the next day. On the second day, you get to the real climb toward the mighty mountain. The road ahead can be challenging so you get better to have yourself hydrated. You will get to the top about mid-day with a mesmerizing view of fog and mist. There is nothing feel comparable to the feeling of standing at the top of the Indochina roof admiring the might of the nature. It will take a while for anyone to get down from the view. Later you come back to the camp site for lunch. On the third day, you get to visit a Hmong community before heading back.
