Ban Ho Village
Bản Hồ
A Tay and Dao village on the lower reaches of the Muong Hoa River, with streams, bamboo groves, rattan bridges, and hot springs. It is a more remote, quieter place for trekking and homestays.
Ban Ho lies about 25 km from Sa Pa town on the lower Muong Hoa River. Its elevation is much lower than the town's, so the climate is warmer. Tay stilt houses are scattered among the rice paddies and streams. A common route is to trek on from Ta Van for two days to reach here, or to take a vehicle straight to a Tay homestay. Nearby attractions include a rattan bridge (Cầu Mây), small waterfalls, and natural hot springs. It sees fewer visitors than Lao Chai and Ta Van, so the pace is slower. Roads may be cut by landslides during the rainy season, so check conditions before setting out.
