Bidoup - Ta Giang is known as the most beautiful trekking in the South with a total length of about 28 km, passing through 3 provinces of Lam Dong, Ninh Thuan, and Khanh Hoa. Throughout the 2D1N journey, you have the opportunity to explore many types of terrain and rich flora and fauna ecosystems, from primeval forests to grassy hills and rocky streams.



Starting from Bidoup - Nui Ba National Park (Lam Dong), following the park's rangers began their trekking journey. Under the canopy of the old forest covered with mysterious moss, our group took turns crossing cool streams, crossing steep hills, admiring the wild and peaceful beauty of the mountains and forests.


Away from the noise of the city, I was immersed in nature, filling my chest with cool, fresh air. Walking along the trail through the rainforest at an altitude of 1,200-1,800 meters, I had the opportunity to learn about many rare plants such as red pine, 5-leaf pine, admire many kinds of flowers, mosses, and strange mushrooms,...



Here, you have the opportunity to admire rare large trees such as the nearly 1,000-year-old 2-leaf pine "tool" - this is also the only pine species left in Bidoup - Nui Ba. There is also a po mu tree with a history of more than 700 years.


This area has high humidity all year round, tree trunks and stone slabs covered with green moss, although we have paid attention to moving carefully, we have many times "photographed" frogs falling in the middle of the forest. In the forest, there are a lot of squeezes, you should wear long-sleeved clothes, wear high socks to avoid being bitten.



Passing through the old forest canopy, the green grass of Phuoc Binh National Park, Ninh Thuan province appeared in front of my eyes. In the middle of the open space, the whole group stopped to rest, zoomed out into the distance, capturing the image of the green steppe surrounded by overlapping mountains stretching to the horizon.


On this road, there are a number of large tree trunks with strange shapes, forming unique check-in locations



Continue to move down the grass hill to reach the forest ranger shack of Phuoc Binh National Park - where the whole group stays overnight. The road was only about 2 km long, which became a challenge for me when I had to go downhill continuously, causing the knee ligaments to be strained. In return, the moment when the sea of white clouds covered the hills, forming a beautiful magical scene, dispelling fatigue on the nearly 14 km long leg of the first day.



Arriving at the shack, the group prepared dinner together from the ingredients they had brought, dinner consisted of braised meat dipped in bread, silk rolls, chicken salad and porridge. This is a time to eat, watch the stars and chat about the experiences on the past road as well as learn about the life of forest rangers working at the Garden.


From the Phuoc Binh National Park ranger station, continue to cross the green grassy hills, follow the Khe River to Ta Giang village (Khanh Son district, Khanh Hoa province). Along the way, the wind blew through the grass creating a rustling sound that reminded us of singing sounds like the name "singing grass road" that people have given to this trekking bow.



Nestled in the green forest canopy, the clear and peaceful Khe River connects Ninh Thuan and Khanh Hoa. Seen from above, the beautiful scenery is like a vivid picture with the water pouring into the rocks throwing white foam, forming a non-stop rumbling sound.


In the early days of July, the river water was not too high, we could easily cross the other side. However, when the rainy season returns, the Ta Giang trekking palace will be closed to ensure the safety of visitors.



The specialty of the Ta Giang trekking journey is the rocky springs with fresh and cool water. After overcoming a long distance in the summer sun, we stopped by the stream to enjoy lunch, immerse ourselves in the cool water, and enjoy swimming in the middle of the natural pool. This is indeed the reward that nature has bestowed on the past efforts.



Unlike ordinary trekking, Bidoup - Ta Giang is a journey of continuous movement from high to low over many different types of terrain, requiring visitors to have good physical fitness and ingenuity and endurance.
