Embark on a 2-day trekking journey through the remote Dao ethnic hamlets of Khuoi My, Lung Vai, Xa Phin, Mao Phin, and Nam Te. Along the way, you will encounter ancient Shan Tuyet tea hills, vast terraced rice fields, moss-covered stilt houses, and crystal-clear waterfalls.
Each step reveals the vibrant heritage of the Long-Dress Dao (Dao Ao Dai) people—the spiritual guardians of the Tay Con Linh sacred forest. This is more than just a trek; it is a cultural immersion. Connect with the rhythm of mountain life, breathe in the scent of fresh tea leaves, and experience authentic local hospitality under the sustainable principles of TVPalm Adventure.
