Phong Nha Botanic Garden
Vườn thực vật Phong Nha
A primeval forest trail inside the national park, with a waterfall and rare plants. An easy jungle hike.
Phong Nha Botanic Garden lies about 8 km south of Phong Nha town and covers roughly 40 hectares of primary tropical forest within the national park. Several loop trails wind through the garden. The short loop takes about 1.5 hours and leads to Thác Gió (Wind Waterfall), a cascade about 40 metres high, and a viewpoint. Along the way you'll pass centuries-old trees, orchids and tropical plants, and if you're lucky you may spot monkeys and birds. Entry costs about 80,000 VND. The trails can be slippery, and in the dry season the waterfall runs low. Bring insect repellent and watch out for leeches.
