trees, and the uses they have for this local area. Local birds can also be seen
throughout this walk, with seasons varying, and the time of year you visit. As
we trek up to the height of 2200m, we relax with a picnic lunch. We then keep on
trekking up to the height of 2800m, taking in the spectacular views along the
way. After setting up camp for the night, dinner is cooked on the campfire.
Ready to unwind from the day, you will find yourself sleeping soundly, while
nestled in amongst this rugged beauty that the countryside has to offer.
Day 2: Getting to the top of Fanxipan (B,L,D)
With an early rise of 6.30-7.00am, we have breakfast together before we

very top of Fanxipan Mountain (3143m above sea level). Take some time out, as
you absorb the combination of the fresh crisp air, and beautiful views while
overlooking Sapa town, admiring its thick green forestry landscape. (Please

therefore the weather can change quite rapidly, altering from heavy mist and fog
to warm sunny days. Hence, we cannot guarantee clear views from the top of this
mountain. ) After enjoying the remarkable views, we commence the descent to
2800m and enjoy a picnic lunch around 1.30pm. We then trek on back down to
2,200m and set up our camp for the night. Enjoy a warming dinner as we sit
