3. Pu Si Lung trek itinerary

From the starting point of the Pa Ve Su border post to the top of Pu Si Lung, the climber must take at least 3 nights and 4 days to cross 100km of the forest road (both going and returning).  

High mountains

During the journey to climb the pass, cross the forest, cross the stream to conquer Pu Si Lung, the climber must go through many hardships. The journey along large streams with many fierce rapids and simple bridges made of tree trunks broken from the flood season makes you take off your shoes to wade across. The rocky rapids, slippery, cold make everyone’s feet numb and must be very careful if you do not want to get wet.

Journey to conquer “Roof of the border”

Sin Chai A village is the place where the La Hu people live. This is also the first stop of the journey to conquer Pu Si Lung.

You will admire the blooming forest flowers. The journey through the forest, crossing the stream is extremely arduous. This road is a place to test and endure the will of those who like to move.
Crossing Nam Xu Luong stream always leaves an interesting feeling. This stream flows all year round and is very aggressive when the rainy season comes. .

Conquering Pu Si Lung Peak

At night in the valley, surrounded by wild mountains and forests, beside the flickering fire, the murmuring stream and the silver light of the moon and stars on the top of the head.

Especially crossing the 5-hour slope is a fire test for anyone. At the top of the 5-hour slope, there is a hut of the “forest man” couple, Golden And Wait.

Beautiful mountain scenery, fresh air with misty clouds are magical. Sometimes, we thought we were lost when we entered the hills of white wildflowers from stem to flower. Footsteps step on carpets of dry leaves or small flowers. Looking up was a bright rose-red sky.

4. The feeling when conquering the end of the Northwest sky

The road is very long, going up and down, but climbing forever and finally reaching the destination. You will scream with joy when you see the landmark standing there, towering over the reinforced concrete floor. It’s great that you have crossed to reach the end of the Northwest sky. It is a journey of search and discovery.
