About
Quick facts: The pass reaches an altitude of 1,914 meters, being the highest point accessible by road in Vietnam. Its layout winds over 19 tight curves, offering incredible panoramic views of the Muong Hoa valley.
Highlights: The most impressive section is turn number 9, where the road literally clings to the edge of a cliff with a drop of hundreds of meters. From there you can see how the clouds seem to brush the treetops and a freight train crosses the valley below.
Insider tips
- Lleva ropa impermeable y calzado antideslizante si visitas fuera de la temporada seca.
- Los mejores lugares para fotografiar están cerca de la curva 9 y el mirador de la cresta.
- Evita los fines de semana para evitar la afluencia de turistas domésticos.
- No te excedas conduciendo; la carretera es peligrosa y requiere atención constante.
