Ha Giang Loop 4-Day Motorbike Tour
Loop around the Ha Giang Karst Plateau via Quan Ba, Dong Van, Ma Pi Leng, and Du Gia.
The entire loop is about 350 km, with the most common itinerary spending one night each in Yen Minh, Dong Van, and Du Gia. Along the way, you will see Tham Ma Pass, the Hmong King's Palace, Lung Cu Flag Tower, and the Nho Que River Canyon. Four days is more relaxed than three, allowing you to include the Du Gia section. The mountain roads are narrow with many sharp bends; most people ride on the back of a local guide's motorbike, which is suitable for those in good physical shape and not afraid of heights.
Landslides are common during the rainy season from June to August; rice ripens in September and October; winter is foggy and cold.
