The easiest exploration route at Cat Ba National Park, perfect for those who want to enjoy nature without needing much time.
– Semi-Wild Enclosure: Right at the entrance toward the forest’s edge, you will begin your journey at the semi-wild enclosure. This is a rare opportunity to observe and learn firsthand about endangered species being rescued and cared for—such as the Green Peafowl, Silver Pheasant, Reticulated Python, and Sika Deer—before they are released back into their natural habitat.
– Ngu Lam Peak: Conquering the 273-meter-high Ngu Lam Peak is a must-do experience. Although not extremely high, it offers a majestic panoramic view of the Cat Ba Archipelago. The feeling of standing on the summit, breathing in the fresh air, and taking in a stunning natural canvas of endless limestone mountain ranges and vast forests will be a truly memorable moment.
– Kim Giao Forest: Strolling through the famous pure forest of Kim Giao (Podocarpus neriifolius) and its associated legends, you will discover the unique beauty of this precious timber species. With straight trunks and a lush green canopy, the forest creates an incredibly peaceful and cool atmosphere. Sunlight filtering through the foliage, combined with the fresh air, will bring you a wonderful sense of relaxation as you walk beneath these ancient trees.
– Trung Trang Cave: Located in the heart of a limestone valley, Trung Trang Cave is a natural masterpiece dating back over 6 million years. Inside the cave, you will admire a sparkling system of stalactites and stalagmites that create a magical and magnificent space. This is not only a beautiful cave but also a historical site, once used by the soldiers and people of Cat Ba as a shelter, living area, and working space during the resistance war against America.
