Bach Ma National Park Tour Overview
Bach Ma National Park, located in Phu Loc district, Thua Thien Hue province, was established in 1991 and is one of the largest primary forests in Vietnam, covering an area of nearly 37,500 hectares. Dubbed the “Da Lat of Central Vietnam” or “Sacred Bach Ma Mountain”, this place stands out for its diverse ecosystem, including more than 2,300 species of plants and 1,700 species of animals, among which are many rare and endangered species such as the saola, red-shanked douc langur, and Edwards's pheasant.
Bach Ma National Park tours usually last 1 day, departing from Hue, Quang Tri, or Da Nang, making them suitable for travelers who enjoy trekking, sightseeing, and exploring culture and history. With a temperate climate and temperatures 7–10°C lower than surrounding areas, Bach Ma is the perfect choice to escape the Central region's heat, especially between March and September when the weather is dry and ideal for outdoor activities.
Tours typically include round-trip transportation, a tour guide, entrance fees, and a picnic lunch amidst nature. This is an ideal journey for families, groups of friends, or individuals looking to experience nature without extensive preparation.
