Overview
CAT BA PATHFINDERS - A BRANCH OF VIETNAM EXPEDITIONS - INVITES YOU ON AN EXCLUSIVE HALF-DAY EXPEDITION IN CAT BA!
Trek through the rugged limestone mountains to discover Hang Vem Lagoon, a jewel of Lan Ha Bay, beautifully concealed within the ancient forest canopy. This tour offers an unforgettable adventure with thrilling activities like abseiling, trekking and swimming.
Abseiling – Descend from the sky at Golden Monkey Peak
At the summit of Golden Monkey Peak, you’ll take on the thrill of abseiling down a steep limestone cliff. The lower you go, the more the scenery opens up: a mirror-like lake below, rugged mountains surrounding you. With professional guides and high-quality safety gear by your side, this activity offers the perfect balance of adrenaline, challenge, and awe-inspiring natural beauty.
Trekking – Conquer the majestic limestone jungle
Step into a vibrant tropical rainforest and follow winding trails that lead through dense foliage and along rocky mountain slopes. Sunlight filters through the leaves above as birds call from the canopy and the wind whispers through the trees. As you ascend, the landscape transforms—twisting roots underfoot, moss-covered rocks, and ever-changing layers of plant life create a journey that’s both wild and mesmerizing
Swimming – Recharge in pristine nature
After your forest adventure, unwind in a secluded jungle lagoon. Cool, crystal-clear water gently laps against your skin, washing away fatigue and refreshing your senses. Here, far from any noise of the outside world, nature surrounds you completely, offering a rare, peaceful moment of pure stillness.
