Ta Lien Son trekking journey – Departing from Hanoi

From the village below, Ta Lien Peak stands tall and majestic—like the proud back of a wild buffalo. Because of its distinctive silhouette, locals often refer to Ta Lien as “Buffalo Neck.” Officially rising 2,996 meters above sea level, the peak offers breathtaking views of Lai Chau, a charming city nestled amid the majesty of surrounding mountains and forests.

As you venture through the Ta Lien forest, you will be immersed in an incredibly rich ecosystem of pristine beauty. The trail winds through ancient moss-covered trees, with ferns and ivy covering the forest floor. The vibrant carpets of fallen white camellias, crimson maple leaves, and lush green moss make every step feel like you are entering a dreamlike, mythical world.

Group tours depart from Hanoi every Friday evening. For detailed weekly itineraries, please contact Viettrekking.
