Trek Fansipan Vietnam
At 3143m Mt. Fansipan is the highest peak in Vietnam and the entire Indochina peninsula. To successfully conquer the highest peak, mountaineers need to be in good shape and properly equipped with such things as sleeping bags, waterproof tents, food, stove, raincoat, compass and other miscellaneous survival gear. Fansipan Mountain has long been the destination for those who is fond of exploring.
Trekking to Fansipan mountain can be arranged in two days, three days or four days or even longer since this is up to your trip length and the place you begin your trekking adventures.
The overnight trek starts with a car transfer from Sapa town up to the Tram Ton, Heaven’s Gate. The uphill drive takes about one hour before you get in the Hoang Lien Nature Reserve. After the first hiking day, you almost reach the top. The following day you arrive to the top of the Fansipan mountain where you will spend some time to celebrate to victory before going downhill to your departure point. You will be picked up by your vehicle again and transferred back to Sapa town.
The three-day hiking tour is more challenging. There is no support vehicle. You begin your adventure from Sapa town, hiking through H’mong villages before entering the Hoang Lien National Park. You will reach the summit on the second day. After reaching the top, you trek back towards Sapa town taking another hiking trail. You arrive back Sapa town on third day.
The four-day tour is arranged with another hiking trails sneaking through local Black H’mong and Red Dzao villages. You also spend two night in camping tent before you get to the summit of the Indochina.
The best time to conquer the Fansipan mountain is the dry season starting from October until April the following year. January is therefore foggy in Sapa.
