Situated 270 km
to the northwest of Hanoi, Ba Be National Park is one of
Vietnam's most beautiful areas. The park is centered round
the
picturesque Ba Be Lake, which, in turn is enclosed within
a lush evergreen forest and rolling limestone hills.
Day 1: Hanoi -
Ba Be
With an early
departure from Hanoi
this morning we head north towards Ba Be Lake. This drive
of 270 km, which will take approximately seven hours,
takes us through the flatlands of the Red River Delta and
up into the mountain areas north of Hanoi. As we progress
north, the scenery becomes more and more picturesque. From
our scheduled lunch stop it is only around two and
a-half-hours to our destination. Arriving in Ba Be town by
mid afternoon we will check into our guest house and then
head out for a bit of exploration before the sun sets.

Day 2: Ba Be
Lake
After
breakfasting at our guesthouse we drive the short distance
to the jetty where we board our private boat for a cruise
on the lake. Weather permitting we can have a swim in
crystal clear waters before having lunch. Following lunch
we board our boat to the Tay village of Pac Ngoi. A visit
to this small hamlet will enable us to witness how little
the lives of the people in these remote areas have
changed. We will be the guests of the Tay people tonight.

Day 3: Ba Be
Lake - Hanoi
This morning we will commence our return journey to Hanoi.
En route we will make a stop at the interesting Thay
Nguyen Ethnology Museum. Arrival back into Hanoi
will be approximately mid afternoon
