After stopping at the immigration office to purchase the mandatory travel permit we set out into Ha Giang proper. We make a stop along the way at the H’mong Palace, a beautiful structure constructed by the French and Chinese, leading to an interesting fusion of styles.
We then travel to Meo Vac Valley across Ma Pi Leng Pass, which perches on the very edge of a mountain range and offers some breath-taking views over the Nho Que River. You then descend into the valley, arriving in Ha Giang Town at around 18:00 for dinner and an overnight stay in a Tay homestay. - 8 - 10 km of trekking
As you return to Hanoi, we will take you on the less trafficked route back to the capital, following a snaking a river and going from one amazing mountain pass to the next. You are likely to get a lot of attention from the locals here whenever we stop, as they rarely see foreign travellers. Eventually we stop in Duong Lam Village for lunch and some exploration of the hundreds of ancient houses located here before finishing our journey and arriving in Hanoi around sunset. - 2 - 3 km of walking
