Koh Trong Island
កោះត្រង់
A sandbar island in the Mekong River across from Kratie. Bike around the island past pomelo orchards, stilt houses, and a Vietnamese floating village.
Koh Trong Island sits in the Mekong River directly across from Kratie town. A ferry from the riverside pier takes about 10 minutes. No cars are allowed on the island. The ring road is about 10 km long, and you can rent bicycles at the pier. The route passes pomelo orchards, rice fields, stilt houses, and temples. At the southern tip is a floating village of ethnic Vietnamese residents. A community ecotourism center arranges homestays where you can experience village life. During the dry season, the sandbars also offer views of Mekong sunsets.
