5 Northern mountain climbing arcs for the first day of 2022
The feeling of conquering a mountain peak in the Northwest, watching the sea of clouds floating, and the
HCM CITY – Bạch Moc Lương Tử, Viet Nam’s fourth highest peak in Lao Cai Province, is a perfect venue for viewing sunsets and catching clouds.
Conquering Bạch Moc Lương Tử is a great challenge in both physical and mental endurance.
At 3,046 metres, the peak, also known as Kỳ Quan San, is the second highest in the northern province, after Fansipan, which is called “the Roof of Indochina”.
Muối Mountain, 3,000 metres high, is the most beautiful site to catch the sunset and sunrise on the way to Bạch Moc Lương Tử peak. It acts as a natural border between Lai Chau and Lao Cai provinces.
There are two routes to the top, one from Sang Ma Sao Commune in Bat Xat District in Lao Cai Province, and the other in Lai Chau Province from Dền Sung Village in Sin Sủi Hổ Commune in Phong Thổ District. You can go up one way and down the other for more picturesque vistas.
The climber can hire porters, who are ethnic Dao who also take care of the meals during the trek. Their fee ranges from VNĐ300,000 to VNĐ500,000 per day. VNS
