Introduction to Ban Co Peak Tour

The Ban Co Peak tour takes you to the highest peak of Son Tra Peninsula – known as the “Roof of Da Nang”. Located only about 8–10 km from the city center, this destination is famous for its natural stacked rock formations, evoking the image of a giant chessboard. According to legend, this was once where two celestial deities sat playing chess, until a fairy distracted one of them, causing the chessboard to fall into the sea and creating the romantic Tien Sa Beach. It is this blend of legend and breathtaking scenery that makes Ban Co Peak an unmissable destination when traveling to Da Nang.

Joining the tour, you will not only admire panoramic views of the city from above—the sparkling Han River, the gracefully curving Dragon Bridge, My Khe Beach smooth as a silk ribbon, and the legendary Hai Van Pass in the distance—but also enjoy the fresh air in the pristine primeval forest.

The special highlight of the Ban Co Peak tour is its convenience and safety: you will travel by specialized vehicle or motorbike, accompanied by a tour guide sharing insights into the Son Tra ecosystem – home to over 1,000 species of rare flora and fauna, notably the red-shanked douc langur. Choosing the Ban Co Peak tour, you will save time, gain many exciting experiences, and enjoy a much safer trip compared to traveling on your own. This is definitely a journey worth trying for anyone wanting to fully discover the beauty of Da Nang from above.


Destinations and Experiential Activities in the Tour

More than just a sightseeing stop, the Ban Co Peak tour opens up a journey to conquer the entire Son Tra Peninsula – a place where untouched nature meets folk legends. Visitors will experience a wide range of emotions, from gentle relaxation to exhilarating moments of adventure.

Ban Co Peak 

  • This is the highest peak of Son Tra, featuring giant granite rocks stacked like a chessboard and a statue of De Thich sitting in deep contemplation. From here, you can take in a 360° panoramic view of Da Nang city, the vast bay, and the deep blue East Sea.
  • Experience: Gentle trekking through the forest (20–30 minutes), checking in by the statue of De Thich, or trying a game of “fairy chess” with friends. The magical misty sunrise and the brilliant sunset painting the whole sky red are “million-like” moments that everyone longs to witness in person.

Linh Ung Bai But Pagoda & Vong Canh House

  • About 2–3 km from Ban Co Peak, Linh Ung Pagoda is famous for its 67m tall Lady Buddha statue – a symbol of protection for coastal fishermen. Nearby is Vong Canh House, a rocky outcrop jutting out into the sea, regarded as the stunning “natural balcony” of Son Tra.
  • Experience: Visit the pagoda to pray for peace, admire the giant Lady Buddha statue, then head to Vong Canh House for a picnic, meditation, or simply relaxing with the sea breeze. If you are lucky, you may spot a troop of red-shanked douc langurs – the “queen of primates” in Son Tra – playing in the treetops.

Bai But & Tien Sa Beach

  • On the way to the peak, you will encounter two pristine beaches with fine white sand and crystal-clear turquoise waters.
  • Experience: Stop for a swim, savor fresh grilled seafood prepared by local fishermen, or go snorkeling to discover the beauty of the underwater world. This is the perfect “resort moment” to balance your energetic trekking journey.

The Ban Co Peak tour offers a harmonious blend of adventure and relaxation, suitable for various ages and travel groups. Be sure to pack sunscreen, drinking water, and a light jacket, as the mountain winds can be quite strong, especially in the late afternoon and evening.
