Hoa Binh lake exploration
Discover one of northern Vietnam’s last untouched frontiers. Hoa Binh Lake is a vast emerald reservoir where towering limestone cliffs rise from glassy waters, and life slows to the rhythm of nature. On this one-day adventure, you’ll kayak peaceful bays, explore ancient caves, meet local fishing communities, and unwind in a forest hot spring. Whether you’re craving action or serenity — you’ll find it here, wrapped in beauty and stillness.
