Dalat is known as “The City of Love” and is a favorite holiday resort for Vietnamese as well as the French. With evergreen forests, waterfalls, beautiful lakes, the country’s best flower gardens, and delicious fresh produce, Dalat has always provided a welcome respite from the heat of the lowlands.

We continue our day by turning on the locals’ off-road ride that leads us to the west of Dalat—Lang Biang Mountain.  This road is really challenging your driving skills as we traverse through the muddy tracks, narrow paths, sharp descents and ascents.

We get to the waterfall, where you’ll admire its natural beauty and the fresh streams below. It’s just perfect to cool your body off after several hours of riding. Our tasty lunch will be prepared next to the waterfall. The feeling of being in nature with the sounds of waterfall, birds or wild animals is incomparable…

Our afternoon ride is no less interesting and adventurous as we ride through lush green coniferous-pine forests with long climbs, a wooden bridge over the river. We take delight in the magnificent landscape from the peak of the mountain.
