From Hanoi: 2-Day Lao Than Peak Trekking & Y Ty Cloud Hunting Overview & Highlights Embark on an unforgettable adventure to conquer Lao Than Peak (2,860m) in Y Tý. Trek through stunning terraced rice fields and mountain trails, hunt for magical seas of clouds, and witness breathtaking sunsets from a cozy mountain hut. Celebrate your summit success with a relaxing herbal bath and a delicious sturgeon hotpot in Sapa! ... --------------------------------------- Day 1: Hanoi – Sapa – Y Ty – Mountain Hut Trek (Meals: Breakfast, Lunch, Dinner) Your adventure begins the night before with a comfortable overnight sleeper bus ride from Hanoi to Sapa. In the morning, arrive in Sapa to freshen up and enjoy a hearty breakfast. Take a scenic transfer vehicle to the mountain base at Phin Ho Kindergarten in Y Ty. After a comprehensive safety briefing and gear check from your expert guide, start your trekking journey. Hike along winding trails through lush low-land forests, winding hillsides, and stunning terraced rice fields. Stop along the trail for a picnic lunch in nature. Continue ascending through changing vegetation until you reach the wooden mountain hut by late afternoon. Settle in and witness a spectacular sunset over the "Roof of Y Ty."

Fuel up with breakfast before kicking off the final steep push to the summit. At 07:00, touch the landmark at the summit of Lao Than Peak (2,860m). Take your time to soak in the 360-degree views, hunt for clouds, and snap unforgettable photos. Trek back down to the hut to pack your belongings, then head down the mountain to meet the local transport. Return to Sapa for a well-deserved traditional herbal hot bath to stimulate circulation and relax sore muscles. Celebrate your achievement with a delicious sturgeon hotpot dinner at a local restaurant.

They helped us in a holistic way, arranging all we needed from a long list of transports that we needed, whole day impressive local tours, and really last minute changes.

The trip was well-organized, the guide was friendly and helpful, and everything ran smoothly from start to finish. The itinerary covered beautiful spots in Ha Giang, and the homestays were comfortable and welcoming. Overall, it was a great way to explore Ha Giang without any stress.

Mario Cuenca1 year agoMy experience in Cat Ba was very good, and partly thanks to Vietnam Venture. After asking around at several travel agencies, I ended up with the one where Ninh works (VietNam Venture). From then on, I had complete peace of mind when planning tours, trips, and more. I couldn't worry about anything thanks to the trust Ninh instilled in me, the information she gave me, her willingness to help... 100% recommended.Response from the owner1 year agoThank you so much
