We have just finished a 3 day trip to Ba Be Lake and Ban Gioc Waterfall with Conical Travel. The trip was such a big lesson for us to open our eyes and everything was so incredible. We were entirely mesmerized by the green landscape of rural parts in Northern Vietnam. We met a lot of local ethnic people who are different from people I saw in big cities inVietnam and we had chance to communicate with them and learn their cultures. So NICE!! Time spent in the Ban Gioc waterfall and Ba Be lake was unforgettable for us. We had the feeling of nature, adventure and happiness. The only thing we didnt like about the trip is the way is so long. Good recommendation for anybody who would like to do the trip, you should choose 4 days and you will have more time to see and discover. In all thank you Conical Travel for the great trip!!!

Here you will have the chance to meet the Nung people in the village of Phuc Sen, a mountainous village famous for traditional blacksmith craft. Like the Tays, the Nungs largely live by farming the terraced rice paddies that you will see all around as you continue to Ban Gioc Waterfall , the stunning falls that span across the border between Vietnam and China. You will spend some time at your own leisure, relaxing and taking photos as you soak up the incredible surroundings of Vietnam’s most beautiful waterfall.

Transferring to Lang Son for Lunch then driving in the direction of the Chinese border for about 3 hours, before reaching at Chi Lang Pass – a 20-km-long gorge created from a narrow valley between two mountains. This place occupies an important position in Vietnamese history, being the place of many victories against various Chinese invasions over the centuries and millennia, as far back as 981AD. As such it bears the reputation of Vietnam’s strongest citadel and bastion. Here you will have roughly an hour to walk around and explore the area around the Quy Mon Quan Gate, which translates as “The Gate of Monsters”, named for the many invasion forces that would spill through the pass over the course of history only to be beaten back by stalwart Vietnamese defenders.
End the tour in Hanoi around 18.00.

Tour Itinerary
Duration: 2 days 1 night. Accommodation: Homestay This 2-day trip unveils Ba Be’s mystical lake and hill tribe villages, you’ll experience the friendliness of the local people, eat authentic Vietnamese cuisine and stay in a beautiful homestay.
Day 1: Hanoi – Bac Kan – Ba Be Lake (L, D)
Morning depart from your hotel in Hanoi. On the way, stop in Thai Nguyen to visit the fascinating Museum of the Culture of the Ethnic Minorities of Vietnam, followed by lunch in a street restaurant. We then leave the main road to take a smaller one snaking through the mountains and tea plantations to arrive at the Tay village of Bo Lu. Tay people make their living by fishing and rice and corn cultivation and they are renowned for their picturesque stilt houses. In Bo Lu you will enjoy the hospitality of local people and their amazingly friendly family, in one such traditional house. You will completely unwind from the hassle of Hanoi as you take a 3 hour boat trip, gently chugging around the lake. If you need to cool off, do as the local kids do and just jump in the river for a swim.
Return to your homestay and enjoy a superb dinner with local specialties. Overnight with local family at Bo Lu/Coc Toc Village.
Day 2: Ba Be – Hanoi (B, L)
After breakfast at the Homestay, we will go on foot to experience the Ba Be forest at close quarters. You will trek by the slow flowing river, gaze in awe at the dramatic mountains and valleys and natural caves and may enjoy a little bird and butterfly spotting. The national park is home to countless numbers of flora and fauna.
On the way, we will pay a visit to Hua Ma cave, only recently accessible, as few locals would enter due to ancient beliefs. The cave has thousands of stalactites and stalagmites and is still very atmospheric. You can rest your legs on the drive back to Hanoi, stopping for lunch at a local restaurant on the way. Expected to arrive at your hotel in Hanoi about 18.30.

This is post 25 of 26 in the series “Vietnam”
Vietnam has become a favourite country of mine not only because it’s cheaper than Thailand, but also because of its unique mix of Chinese, Viet, and Champa influence. Vietnamese cuisine is one of my top favourite things as is their tea culture, not to mention that Phong Nha in Central Vietnam will always be my top national park destination.

Ba Be Lake in Northern Vietnam is a lesser-known national park with a tranquil lake fed by 3 rivers and surrounded by karst mountains. It’s a more off-the-beaten-path Vietnam National Park to visit with the opportunity to stay with the local people and trek around the farmlands, too.
See my guide to Hanoi here and what to eat here !
Ba Be Lake Essential Information
Ba Be Lake is not as famous as Sapa or Ha Giong, but it’s nonetheless a great destination in Northern Vietnam to visit.
The area is home to ethnic minorities. The Tay people mostly settled around the lake, while the Dao and Hmong people made their homes in the mountains.
Let’s dive into some frequently asked questions about Ba Be Lake:
Where is Ba Be Lake?
Ba Be Lake is located inside the Ba Be National Park about 6 hours north of Hanoi in the Bắc Kạn Province.
How long should I spend in Ba Be Lake?
Since Ba Be Lake is a little far from Hanoi, you want to at least do a 2 day 1 night trip. The general recommendation is to stay 3 days 2 nights, so you can have one full day there.
When is the best time to visit Ba Be Lake?
There are pros and cons to visiting Ba Be Lake in the dry and wet season.
![ba be lake tour view of village on river ba be lake ba be lake view homestay ba be lake ba be national park Vietnam - laugh travel eat](https://www.laughtraveleat.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/06/view-of-village-on-river-ba-be-lake-ba-be-lake-view-homestay-ba-be-lake-ba-be-national-park-Vietnam-laugh-travel-eat.jpg)
During the dry season (November to April), trekking is much more pleasant and there’s less chance of heavy rain washing rubbish into the lake. Although the water level might be lower.
However, in the wet season (May to October) the higher level of the lake and river means you can take a boat trip starting at one of the rivers by the village (which I think it’s the prettiest part).
How to get to Ba Be Lake?
There are no trains up north, but the road is relatively well paved. The bus or van journey up to Ba Be Lake takes 5-6 hours depending on traffic and weather conditions.
![ba be lake tour hanoi opera house pick up ba be lake ba be national park Vietnam - laugh travel eat](https://www.laughtraveleat.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/06/hanoi-opera-house-pick-up-ba-be-lake-ba-be-national-park-Vietnam-laugh-travel-eat.jpg)
It’s best to book a tour or arrange with your hotel or homestay for transport as you’d want to be directly dropped off. Ba Be Lake is relatively big and you don’t want to be stuck on the wrong side.
What is there to do in Ba Be Lake?
![ba be lake tour drone shot of ba be lake vietnam laugh travel eat](https://www.laughtraveleat.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/06/drone-shot-of-ba-be-lake-ba-be-lake-view-homestay-ba-be-lake-ba-be-national-park-Vietnam-laugh-travel-eat.jpg)
Ba Be Lake is the only natural lake in Vietnam surrounded by karst mountains. The area has long been home to ethnic minorities who mostly farms rice and corn. This led to a diverse landscape suitable for cycling, swimming, hiking, and kayaking. And you can visit and or stay with the Tay or Hmong people.
How big is Ba Be Lake?
Ba Be Lake covers 500 hectares of ground and is in an extended triangle shape. On each end is a river flowing into the lake and several small rock pools, too.
Ba Be Lake View Homestay
![ba be lake tour ba be lake view homestay ba be lake ba be national park Vietnam - laugh travel eat](https://www.laughtraveleat.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/06/ba-be-lake-view-homestay-ba-be-lake-ba-be-national-park-Vietnam-laugh-travel-eat-2.jpg)
The Ba Be Lake View Homestay is at the highest point of the village along the river Leng on the southwestern edge of Ba Be Lake.
![ba be lake tour ba be lake view homestay ba be lake ba be national park Vietnam - laugh travel eat](https://www.laughtraveleat.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/06/basic-room-ba-be-lake-view-homestay-ba-be-lake-ba-be-national-park-Vietnam-laugh-travel-eat.jpg)
The homestay is run by Tay villagers and they have air-conditioned rooms and a more rustic basic room with shared bathrooms.
![ba be lake tour air con room ba be lake view homestay ba be lake ba be national park Vietnam - laugh travel eat](https://www.laughtraveleat.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/06/air-con-room-ba-be-lake-view-homestay-ba-be-lake-ba-be-national-park-Vietnam-laugh-travel-eat.jpg)
It’s right by the mountainside and their terrace faces the lake with the most beautiful view. Lunch and dinner are eaten with the family. There’s usually a soup dish, vegetables, meat, and also eggs when they realise that I love eggs.

Ba Be Lake itself is definitely the biggest attraction in Ba Be National Park. But there is more than just cruising around to do on the lake, although that is pleasant enough already! Here are the top attractions on Ba Be Lake:
![ba be lake tour fairy lake ba be lake view homestay ba be lake ba be national park Vietnam - laugh travel eat-3](https://www.laughtraveleat.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/06/fairy-lake-ba-be-lake-view-homestay-ba-be-lake-ba-be-national-park-Vietnam-laugh-travel-eat-3.jpg)
Fairy Lake is the most famous rock basin pools by Ba Be Lake. It’s technically not connected to the lake, located north of the tip of Ba Be Lake by the river. There are many local vendors from the Hmong village across the mountain selling herbal teas, peanuts, and various food items. There are also plenty of snails (still alive)!
![ba be lake tour fairy lake ba be lake view homestay ba be lake ba be national park Vietnam - laugh travel eat-2](https://www.laughtraveleat.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/06/fairy-lake-ba-be-lake-view-homestay-ba-be-lake-ba-be-national-park-Vietnam-laugh-travel-eat-2.jpg)
The rock pool was not at its best on my visit, having been flooded after heavy rain and filled with rubbish. My guide told me that they used to have bamboo rafting there but those were destroyed under the heavy rain.
An Ma Shrine
The An Ma Shrine is located on an island roughly in the center of Ba Be Lake. Although the site of worship is not new, the temple we see was only built in 2006. Before that, it was just a small shrine at the back of the temple.
![ba be lake tour An Ma Temple ba be lake view homestay ba be lake ba be national park Vietnam - laugh travel eat-3](https://www.laughtraveleat.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/06/An-Ma-Temple-ba-be-lake-view-homestay-ba-be-lake-ba-be-national-park-Vietnam-laugh-travel-eat-3.jpg)
It’s a popular place of worship for local people and they hold a festival here on the 6th of the second month in lunar new year. But in general, it’s well visited on the first day of every lunar month.
Hua Ma Cave
The Hua Ma Cave is located next to the river Leng and is also known as the Suspension Cave. While the cave entrance has been noted by the locals for a long time, the dark interior did not invite any explorer until the early 21st century. The cave was explored in the early 2000s and opened to visitors in 2007.
![ba be lake tour Hua Ma cave ba be lake ba be national park Vietnam - laugh travel eat](https://www.laughtraveleat.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/06/Hua-Ma-cave-ba-be-lake-ba-be-national-park-Vietnam-laugh-travel-eat.jpg)
Although it can’t compare to the series of caves in Phong-Nha Ke Bang National Park , the Hua Ma Cave itself is a surprisingly deep and wide cave, extending over 700m. It’s a 300m climb to get to the cave entrance and a descend into the cool, damp air of the cavern.
![ba be lake tour Hua Ma cave ba be lake ba be national park Vietnam - laugh travel eat](https://www.laughtraveleat.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/06/Hua-Ma-cave-ba-be-lake-ba-be-national-park-Vietnam-laugh-travel-eat-2.jpg)
Unfortunately (or fortunately), the new lighting installed in the cave in 2020 is now multi-coloured, which has the tendency to make it looks like a Stranger Things location or Halloween haunting ground.
Thac Tat Ma Waterfalls
![ba be lake tour Thac Tat Ma Waterfall view from afar ba be lake view homestay ba be lake ba be national park Vietnam - laugh travel eat](https://www.laughtraveleat.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/06/Thac-Tat-Ma-Waterfall-view-from-afar-ba-be-lake-view-homestay-ba-be-lake-ba-be-national-park-Vietnam-laugh-travel-eat.jpg)
The drive leading up to the Thac Tat Ma Waterfalls reveals a gorgeous value and a thundering stream of water cascading down to the flatland. It is a popular waterfall for locals in the summer, and it’s a surprisingly easy hike from a dirt-parking lot.
![ba be lake tour Thac Tat Ma Waterfall view from afar ba be lake view homestay ba be lake ba be national park Vietnam - laugh travel eat](https://www.laughtraveleat.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/06/Thac-Tat-Ma-Waterfall-ba-be-lake-view-homestay-ba-be-lake-ba-be-national-park-Vietnam-laugh-travel-eat-3.jpg)
That said, during the wet season, it’s at its full strength and one must be careful when taking a dip. The local Tay people would build a bamboo bridge to cross the upper part of the waterfall, but that can be washed away during heavy rain or flow.
Trekking in Ba Be National Park
The Ba Be National Park is full of gorgeous farmland across mountains and valleys. You can also visit the various ethnic villages that have been cut off from the rest of the world until recently.
![ba be lake tour bamboo bridge drone shot trekking cycling tripba be national park vietnam](https://www.laughtraveleat.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/06/bamboo-bridge-drone-shot-trekking-cycling-trip-ba-be-lake-ba-be-national-park-Vietnam-laugh-travel-eat.jpg)
You would absolutely need a local guide while hiking in the area, as the trails are not well mapped and you can easily get lost on an offshoot. There is still a good deal of wildlife in the area who are generally quite shy. They could create paths that look like a trail but aren’t!
![ba be lake tour trekking cycling trip ba be lake ba be national park Vietnam - laugh travel eat](https://www.laughtraveleat.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/06/trekking-cycling-trip-ba-be-lake-ba-be-national-park-Vietnam-laugh-travel-eat.jpg)
Plus, the trails are not marked on google map and only local guides know where the best spots are!
Ba Be Lake Tours
As mentioned before, since Ba Be Lake is still not well developed for international tourism, it’s best to book a tour when you visit.
![ba be lake tour fairy lake ba be lake view homestay ba be lake ba be national park Vietnam - laugh travel eat](https://www.laughtraveleat.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/06/fairy-lake-ba-be-lake-view-homestay-ba-be-lake-ba-be-national-park-Vietnam-laugh-travel-eat.jpg)
The most common ones are 2D1N or 3D2N, depending on the time you have. Given that it takes 5-6 hours to drive one way, you would only have two half-days in Ba Be National Park.
Here are the sample itineraries of what the Ba Be Lake tours would be like:
Ba Be Lake 2 day 1 night tour
Day 1: Hanoi – Ba Be Lake – Boat Trip – Swimming
Day 2: Cycling – Visiting Cave – Hanoi
Ba Be Lake View Homestay Price: $90. All included
Ba Be Lake 3 day 2 night tour
Day 1: Hanoi – Ba Be Lake – Boat Trip – Swimming – Kayaking
Day 2: Ba Be National Park Full Day Trekking
Day 3: Cycling – Visiting Cave – Hanoi
Ba Be Lake View Homestay Price: $130/person. All included
My experience on a Ba Be Lake 3 day 2 night tour
Booking the ba be lake tour with ba be lake view homestay.
Ba Be Lake View Homestay has an active Facebook account as well as a proper website with email. I contacted them via email and they responded quickly in English.
![ba be lake tour ba be lake view homestay ba be lake ba be national park Vietnam - laugh travel eat](https://www.laughtraveleat.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/06/ba-be-lake-view-homestay-ba-be-lake-ba-be-national-park-Vietnam-laugh-travel-eat.jpg)
The price includes everything and Viet, the booking agent, let me know the time and place for pick up. I was traveling solo and left my big luggage at my Hanoi hotel and set off bright and early on day 1.
Day 1 of Ba Be Lake 3 day 2 night tour
Transport to ba be lake.
My pick-up time for the local bus was 6:20 am in front of the Hanoi Opera House. Although the Old Quarter of Hanoi was quiet, it was easy to get a Grab car to the Opera House.
I arrived early and there were already plenty of people waiting for their transfer. I was given the license plate number and spotted my van before 6:20 and hopped on.
It was a local van that stopped along the way to pick up people and parcels. Not everyone was headed to Ba Be, as the van drove through Thái Nguyên and Bắc Kạn.
The driver was very energetic and engaged the other passengers in conversation while I mostly just tried to sleep. There was one rest stop about halfway where you can get food, and drinks, and go to the bathroom.
Lunch at Ba Be Lake View Homestay
I arrived at the homestay just before noon and checked into my room as I waited for the family to prepare our lunch.
![ba be lake tour day 1 lunch ba be lake view homestay ba be lake ba be national park Vietnam - laugh travel eat](https://www.laughtraveleat.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/06/day-1-lunch-ba-be-lake-view-homestay-ba-be-lake-ba-be-national-park-Vietnam-laugh-travel-eat.jpg)
The view was amazing and I couldn’t stop admiring it! The family didn’t speak much English but it was a lovely lunch with local dishes with river shrimps, vegetables, meat, and rice.

Ba Be Lake Boat Trip
![ba be lake tour sunset drone shot of ba be lake vietnam](https://www.laughtraveleat.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/06/sunset-drone-shot-of-ba-be-lake-ba-be-lake-view-homestay-ba-be-lake-ba-be-national-park-Vietnam-laugh-travel-eat.jpg)
My guide came back to pick me up at 2 pm, giving me some time to rest from the early bus ride. We walked down to the riverside of the village as the river water level was high enough to take the boat to the lake.
![ba be lake tour boat trip ba be lake view homestay ba be lake ba be national park Vietnam - laugh travel eat](https://www.laughtraveleat.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/06/boat-trip-ba-be-lake-view-homestay-ba-be-lake-ba-be-national-park-Vietnam-laugh-travel-eat.jpg)
We visited all the big attractions on the lake: An Ma Temple and Fairy Lake. It was a gorgeous trip and my favourite is the scenic ride back to the village.
![ba be lake tour island in ba be lake ba be lake view homestay ba be lake ba be national park Vietnam - laugh travel eat](https://www.laughtraveleat.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/06/island-in-ba-be-lake-ba-be-lake-view-homestay-ba-be-lake-ba-be-national-park-Vietnam-laugh-travel-eat.jpg)
It’s safe to swim in the lake and it was refreshingly cold! We got back to the homestay just before 6 pm and just in time to watch the sunset.
![ba be lake tour sunset view ba be lake view homestay ba be lake ba be national park Vietnam - laugh travel eat](https://www.laughtraveleat.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/06/sunset-view-ba-be-lake-view-homestay-ba-be-lake-ba-be-national-park-Vietnam-laugh-travel-eat.jpg)
Dinner at Ba Be Lake View Homestay
I had time to shower and change before dinner, and we ate downstairs at 8 pm as there was a big local group arriving.
![ba be lake tour day 1 dinner ba be lake view homestay ba be lake ba be national park Vietnam - laugh travel eat](https://www.laughtraveleat.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/06/day-1-dinner-ba-be-lake-view-homestay-ba-be-lake-ba-be-national-park-Vietnam-laugh-travel-eat.jpg)
We had 4 dishes and one of them was bamboo shoot which I really enjoy!
Day 2 of Ba Be Lake 3 day 2 night tour
Normally, today would be a day of hiking but we had to change our plans due to heavy rainfall. Here’s a quick overview of the hiking:
From the homestay, guests usually hike 5-6 km to another village, then across the mountain to see rice paddies, and then at the top to see some viewpoints.
Lunch would be at a Hmong village before crossing another mountain, passing some corn fields and rice fields to another Hmong village with a school visit.
If guests are tired, they can rent a boat to go back in the summer but it’s not possible in the winter.
Breakfast at Ba Be Lake View Homestay
I woke up before 7 am and it was a beautiful misty morning. I had pho ga (chicken rice noodle soup) for breakfast and my guide came to get me at 8:15 to let me know the ground was too wet from heavy rain earlier in the week to hike.
![ba be lake tour pho breakfast ba be lake view homestay ba be lake ba be national park Vietnam - laugh travel eat](https://www.laughtraveleat.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/06/pho-breakfast-ba-be-lake-view-homestay-ba-be-lake-ba-be-national-park-Vietnam-laugh-travel-eat.jpg)
We agreed on cycling instead and he set off to fetch the bicycle and set off at 9 am. We cycled on the main road past rice paddies surrounded by the karst mountains.
Cycling around Ba Be National Park
![ba be lake tour cycling ba be lake ba be national park Vietnam - laugh travel eat](https://www.laughtraveleat.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/06/cycling-ba-be-lake-ba-be-national-park-Vietnam-laugh-travel-eat.jpg)
We stopped at a village to look at the local market, and my guide Tuoi knew everyone!
![ba be lake tour](https://www.laughtraveleat.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/06/rice-fields-ba-be-lake-ba-be-national-park-Vietnam-laugh-travel-eat.jpg)
We only stopped for a while and left our bicycle at a local shop and headed out on a hike.
![ba be lake tour local market on cycling trip ba be lake ba be national park Vietnam - laugh travel eat](https://www.laughtraveleat.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/06/local-market-on-cycling-trip-ba-be-lake-ba-be-national-park-Vietnam-laugh-travel-eat-2.jpg)
Easy hiking in Ba Be National Park
![ba be lake tour bamboo bridge drone shot trekking cycling tripba be national park vietnam](https://www.laughtraveleat.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/06/bamboo-bridge-drone-shot-trekking-cycling-trip-ba-be-lake-ba-be-national-park-Vietnam-laugh-travel-eat-2.jpg)
The hike was all along the paved road, first along the main one, then veering into a village. I really enjoyed seeing the countryside and the bamboo bridge and platform! We did also stop by a waterfall and it felt good to dip my feet in the water.
![ba be lake tour trekking cycling trip ba be lake ba be national park Vietnam - laugh travel eat-2](https://www.laughtraveleat.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/06/trekking-cycling-trip-ba-be-lake-ba-be-national-park-Vietnam-laugh-travel-eat-2.jpg)
We then hiked back to the village and got on our bicycles to go to Hua Ma Cave, where we passed by on the cycle over.
Lunch by Hua Ma Cave
![ba be lake tour lunch by Hua Ma cave ba be lake ba be national park Vietnam - laugh travel eat-2](https://www.laughtraveleat.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/06/lunch-by-Hua-Ma-cave-ba-be-lake-ba-be-national-park-Vietnam-laugh-travel-eat-2.jpg)
We had lunch at the local restaurant by Hua Ma Cave, a hearty plate of fried rice and there was a water filler.
The hike up to Hua Ma Cave was about 300m. My guide got us tickets, and we walked up the mossy ramp and then the stairs.
![ba be lake tour ticket and entrance Hua Ma cave ba be lake ba be national park Vietnam - laugh travel eat](https://www.laughtraveleat.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/06/ticket-and-entrance-Hua-Ma-cave-ba-be-lake-ba-be-national-park-Vietnam-laugh-travel-eat.jpg)
Entering the cave was like going into an air-conditioned space that is much cooler and comparatively less damp. I was not a fan of the multi-coloured lighting but the cave itself is beautiful.
![ba be lake tour going up Hua Ma cave ba be lake ba be national park Vietnam - laugh travel eat](https://www.laughtraveleat.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/06/going-up-Hua-Ma-cave-ba-be-lake-ba-be-national-park-Vietnam-laugh-travel-eat.jpg)
It was empty and the only group we saw headed out when we went in!
![ba be lake tour Hua Ma cave ba be lake ba be national park Vietnam - laugh travel eat-3](https://www.laughtraveleat.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/06/Hua-Ma-cave-ba-be-lake-ba-be-national-park-Vietnam-laugh-travel-eat-3.jpg)
After the cave visit, we went back to our bicycle and headed home, getting back before 4 pm. I initially was going to go kayaking, but the kayak was filled with water from the heavy rain before! So I settled for another late afternoon by the view.
![ba be lake tour day 2 dinner ba be lake view homestay ba be lake ba be national park Vietnam - laugh travel eat](https://www.laughtraveleat.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/06/day-2-dinner-ba-be-lake-view-homestay-ba-be-lake-ba-be-national-park-Vietnam-laugh-travel-eat.jpg)
Dinner was earlier today at 7:20 pm and I really enjoyed the mushroom soup they made an omelet for me!
Day 3 of Ba Be Lake 3 Day 2 Night trip
Normally, cycling would be on day 2, and day 3 is cycling and the Hua Ma Cave visit. But given that I did that yesterday, we discussed it and agreed on going to the waterfall.
![ba be lake tour breakfast day 2 ba be lake view homestay ba be lake ba be national park Vietnam - laugh travel eat](https://www.laughtraveleat.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/06/breakfast-day-2-ba-be-lake-view-homestay-ba-be-lake-ba-be-national-park-Vietnam-laugh-travel-eat.jpg)
The family generally gets up well before me, so they bring me a bowl of noodles and bananas. This time, it was a slightly spicy instant noodle that was quite nice.
Thac Tat Ma Waterfall
![ba be lake tour Thac Tat Ma Waterfall ba be lake view homestay ba be lake ba be national park Vietnam - laugh travel eat](https://www.laughtraveleat.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/06/Thac-Tat-Ma-Waterfall-ba-be-lake-view-homestay-ba-be-lake-ba-be-national-park-Vietnam-laugh-travel-eat.jpg)
My guide came to get me just before 8:30 and we set off on his motorbike to the waterfall. It was a lovely and easy walk up from the parking lot, and we stayed by the waterfall to enjoy the place.
![ba be lake tour final lunch ba be lake view homestay ba be lake ba be national park Vietnam - laugh travel eat](https://www.laughtraveleat.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/06/final-lunch-ba-be-lake-view-homestay-ba-be-lake-ba-be-national-park-Vietnam-laugh-travel-eat.jpg)
We got back at 10:45, giving me time to chat with my guide and pack before lunch. It was only me and Lien, the lady who runs the homestay, and she had a plate of mango for me!
Departure for Hanoi
My van came at exactly noon and it was the same guy who drove me up! He was still relentlessly energetic and it was a full ride back to Hanoi.
Hi, my name is Nam. I am 24 and spent half my life in Hong Kong and the other half in UK. I believe there's endless experience and beauty in the world and this is me chronicling how to experience the best at the best price.

Ba Be Lake – One of the most 16 beautiful lakes in the world
Located about 230km away from Hanoi city, toward the northern mountainous region of Bac Kan, Ba Be Lake (local ethnic name is Slam Pe meaning the joint of three river’s branches) is honorably to be listed in Top of 16 most beautiful lakes in the world. Ba Be Lake is also the largest lake in northern of Vietnam. The total area of this lake is surrounded by mountains and primeval forests.
![ba be lake tour ba be lake](https://tourinhanoi.com/wp-content/uploads/ba-be-lake-2-e1466410300914.jpg)
These are some interesting activities that we recommend you experience in Ba Be Lake . The most common thing is to hire a boat to do sight-seeing on the lake. In case you love advantageous sailing, a choice of a dugout would be very excited. Besides, you can do biking along the lake side or trekking into the primeval forest of the lake. The following attractions are also waiting for you to discover:
Cave Puông : With 300 m in length and more than 30m in height, this gigantic cave is decorated with thousands of stalactites in multi colors and shapes. Moreover, there are tens of thousands of bats living inside this cave.
Đầu Đẳng waterfall : River Năng, blocked by hundred of huge stones, has to separate its flow into many smaller flows but with faster velocity and hence, creates the grandiose Dau Dang waterfall. At such length of more than 1,000 meters plus with the three huge stair stone, the landscape of waterfall is look like desolated and impressive.
Hua Mạ cave : Away from Ba Be lake about 6km, Hua Ma Cave offers you an interesting trekking to the cave’s mouth after climbing up about 300m on the sloppy mountain road. You will be amazed at the various type of stalactites inside this cave.
Ao Tiên (Fairy Poind): only about 100m away from the Ba Be lake, is said once witnessed the fairies on the sky coming there to take a bath long time ago. The water surface on the pond is so even and in deep blue color.
![ba be lake tour dau dang waterfall](https://tourinhanoi.com/wp-content/uploads/dau-dang-waterfall.jpg)
Besides, if you have more time, you should visit other interesting places like: Phya Khao, Kim Hỷ, Fairy Cave, Nà Đăng waterfall, Pác Ngòi village, Thác Giềng spring, etc, enjoy the music of “dan tinh” of Tay ethnic group.
Going there
Nowadays, the home stay service is developing in many villages surrounding Ba Be lake, and the most attractive village here is Pac Ngoi village where there are more than 10 households supply the home stay for tourists with necessary facilities. Sleeping in home stay is a very good experience if you like the nature and want to make the most of the pleasant atmosphere there.
![ba be lake tour boat on ba be lake](https://tourinhanoi.com/wp-content/uploads/ba-be-lake-1.jpg)
Otherwise, you can choose to stay at the Bac Kan town or guest-house in Cho Ra then take a car to the lake area in the morning, return your hotel in the afternoon.
Specialties made from Ba Be Lake are very fresh and delicious: fish caught from the spring, shrimp fed in Ba Be lake, chicken breed on the hill, vegetable planted in the forests, suckling pig, sticky rice planted on the terrace field, bamboo sprout, etc which will bring you good appetite.
It might be quite cold in the early morning and at night, so remember to take a warm clothes & long clothes to avoid the night dew, and anti-insect cream. Also, it would be better if you bring the sneaks and mineral water because there is not much food restaurant or grocery stores in the village.

Ba Be Lake is in Ba Be National Park in Bac Kan Province, almost 250 km northwest of Hanoi. Ba Be Lake is a freshwater lake with a depth of 35m. It has a range of primary forests with rich flora and fauna. In 2011, Ba Be Lake was honoured as one of the 20 biggest freshwater lakes in the world. The unique geological and geomorphological features have created interesting tourism resources alongside ethnic culture and biodiversity in the area. Ba Be Lake is a great tourist destination for Vietnamese and international visitors interested in discovering the scenic beauty, ethnic culture, and biodiversity in the area.
Serenity And Beauty Of Ba Be Lake
![ba be lake tour experience the beauty of Ba Be Lake that is the largest natural lake in Vietnam.](https://img.traveltriangle.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2024/05/Serenity-and-Beauty-of-Ba-Be-Lake.jpg)

Ba Be Lake belongs to Ba Be National Park, Bac Kan province, Vietnam. It is 180 km away from Hanoi to the north. If departing from Hanoi, tourists can go directly to Ba Be Lake because the road leading to the place is quite short and favourable. As one of the natural freshwater lakes located at the lowest elevation in Vietnam, it is also the largest freshwater lake in Northern Vietnam. The average depth from 23 to 29 meters here can be up to 35 meters. The biggest depth is around 35-40 metres. Ba Be Lake Basin is 8 metres higher than the surrounding countryside. The country’s lowest point is only at about 165-170 meters.
Ba Be Lake is a typical U-shaped, concave valley embossed by a huge landslide in an ancient geological era. The base of the triangle is open to form a lake, the lake bottom is divided into 2 smaller streams. The narrow Ba Go mountain pass was slightly cut by water to form a river. The rock is eroded by the river in a pile about 700m long and deep from the bottom to the surface of the water at both ends. In the middle of the lake, the river eroded but the rock retained the old shore. The cross-section of the embankment loosens and the rock is squarely pushed by the bay into the valley.

Activities And Attractions
Being famous for the breathtaking beauty of the landscape, interesting and friendly residents, and home to many precious historical relics, this is the favoured choice for the Ba Be Lake tour. Coming to Ba Be, tourists can participate in many fun activities such as swimming, going sightseeing, and visiting the caves.
1. Explore The Scenic Dau Dang Fall
![ba be lake tour Discover the majestic beauty of the falls near the Ba Be Lake.](https://img.traveltriangle.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2024/05/Explore-the-Scenic-Dau-Dang-Fall.jpg)
Image Credit: Pexels
The first recommended destination is Dau Dang Fall, located 15 kilometres upstream of the Nang River. This 300-meter-high fall is divided into three floors of different shapes and sizes. Due to the powerful impact, the water falling on the ground creates a big stream forming a water wall that flows into the cave.
Tip: Bring good boots for hiking on the ground around the fall and expect some slippery paths close to the water.
2. Discover The Marvellous Puong Cave
![ba be lake tour Experience the aesthetics of the Puong cave near the Be Be Lake.](https://img.traveltriangle.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2024/05/Discover-the-Marvellous-Puong-Cave.png)

The next place is Puong Cave, located on the way to Cho Ra. All the boat tours across the area stop at this cave, which tourists can freely visit and take photos of. Visiting this cave adds an interesting aspect to the tour of Ba Be Lake.
Tip: Every boat takes time to stop at Puong Cave allowing the tourists to explore the cave and take photos.

![ba be lake tour Views of the Tien Pond close to the Ba Be Lake.](https://img.traveltriangle.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2024/05/Unwind-at-Tranquil-Tien-Pond.jpg)
The last attraction is Tien Pond. Situated 3 kilometres downstream of Ba Be Lake, Tien Pond has a vast water surface. You should spend an overnight at Ba Be Lake to behold the magical colours of this area. The fog in the air blends and stirs in the dim twilight. The surface seems to become a giant mirror reflecting the sunshine’s shimmering colours.
Tip: Carry a camera with you to capture the beautiful reflections on the water surface at sunrise and sunset.
3. Cultural Experiences

Growing rice at the beginning of the year, lying inside rather than down, and growing climbing rice at the end of the year. Butterflies and birds are also present in flowery rice fields. The fruit of the rice ripens to give a fragrant smell to visitors. Ba Be can say that she receives her favour, eyes, and silk scales worthy of the “Precious Pearl on the Green Carpet” in Northeast Uttar Pradesh of Vietnam.
Tip: Ba Be National Park is part of the UNESCO World Network of Biosphere Reserves. It is worth visiting the stilt houses of ethnic Tay, Nung, and Dao inhabitants whose way of life has changed little in hundreds of years.

Take a Boat Trip
One of the best ways to experience the incredible beauty of Ba Be is from the water, from here you can explore the rivers, lakes and caves that make up this area of stunning beauty. You can take a boat trip on one of the small boats to take in the highlights of Ba Be or, if you are feeling more adventurous, you can take a kayak and explore the area.
Kayaking has the added benefit of being able to get closer to nature which will give you a more intimate experience.
Trekking in the jungle
Trekking into the villages of hill tribes and national park
Visit a Temple
One of the places to visit on your waterborne adventure is An Ma Temple which sits peacefully next to the lake creating a serene ambience. Here you can bathe in the relaxing atmosphere and learn about the religion and rituals of the local people.
![Things to do in Ba Be Lake photo Babe10 Things to do in Ba Be Lake](https://i1.wp.com/tourguidevietnam.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/11/babe10.jpg?resize=838%2C559)
Admire a Fairy Pond and Window island
Another peaceful spot on the lake is known as Fairy Pond , which is situated in the third section of the lake. The name is well suited to the area as it certainly has a magical feel about it. Legend has it that some fairies, who had been bathing in the secluded waters, lured a local huntsman and put a spell on him. The local fishermen, however, are not put off by this mystical tale and often enjoy fishing peacefully in the waters. One more spot shrouded in local legend is Widow’s Island which sits in the middle of the lake, inviting you to explore its tangle of rocks, roots and branches. The large chunk of rock topped with a thick green forest has an air of mystery surrounding it as it sits alone in the middle of the lake. The name of the island originates from the story of a kind widow and her son who once lived on the island. It is believed that they saved many people from the natural disaster that created Ba Be using only two husks of rice from a fairy.

Visiting Caves
Ba Be also has a fascinating collection of caves just waiting to be explored. One of the most impressive caves in Ba Be is Puong Cave with a height of 30m and length of 300m. This large, dark cavern sits at the bottom of Lung Nham Mountain and was created by years of erosion by the Nang River. This tunnel cave looms over the river and visitors can explore the cave by boat. The dark mouth of the cave leads to a magical maze of stalactites and stalagmites which cast shadows across the tall limestone walls. This amazing hidden world is also the home of thousands of bats. The colonies living amongst nature’s sculpture are made up of an impressive 18 species.
Cultural and Arts
Tay, Dzao and H’mong ethnic minority communities constitute the majority of the scattered villages in and around Ba Be National Park . These small hamlets range from just a cluster of just a few stilt houses to larger communities. The Tay people, famed for their wooden stilt houses, inhabit the villages of Coc Toc , Pac Ngoi and Ban Cam . The simple, wooden structures sit peacefully on the banks of the river, blending harmoniously with the mountains and water. They rely on farming and fishing for sustenance and can be seen fishing or travelling in their dugout canoes named doc moc. Local people skillfully craft each canoe from one tree trunk, and although extremely narrow, they glide effortlessly through the water. As well as being talented woodworkers, the Tay people are known for having some of the most sophisticated looms. You can see the women weaving the exquisite fabrics in the fresh air underneath the stilt houses. You may also get to experience the traditional singing and folk dances which bring these villages to life.
Ba Be is also home to H’mong communities who live an agricultural lifestyle, farming pumpkins, maize, soya and rice. These communities tend to be more isolated and have a strong sense of community which is visible in their distinctive traditional attire. The women work outside weaving the intricate brocade that makes up the colourful outfits, working tirelessly with their children playing around them. Another village in which to meet some friendly and welcoming local people is Na Nghe Village . This small Dzao village is well worth the hike, after trekking through the wilderness with only the sounds of nature you will be rewarded with stunning views of the valley below. The village itself is made up of traditional Dzao, wooden buildings where families eat, sleep and live together. Here you can see the women preparing the mouthwatering evening meals made up of a medley of tasty dishes. A traditional Dzao method of relaxation, are the fragrant and cleansing herbal baths. Large cauldrons are filled with steaming water and a ion of herbs, chosen for their different healing qualities. The steam is trapped using a large blanket as you bask in the aromatic steam, letting the healing herbs work their magic.
Food and Drink
Because of Ba Be’s favourable farming and fishing conditions, the food found here is varied and fresh. From locally grown vegetables to free range meat and fish from the lakes and rivers, the feasts you will enjoy with your hosts are sure to leave you wanting more. One such dish is Lon Cap Nach which translates to pig carried under the arm, so called because of the size of the pigs. These pigs are around just 10kg in weight and are raised wild in the surrounding fields and forests and have a sweet and tender meat. Here you will smell the fragrant spices as the meat is grilled or roasted ready for the evening meal.
All meals are served with a ion of freshly prepared, nutritious vegetables. One such side dish is chayote served with sesame. The mild sweetness of the green vegetable beautifully compliments the earthy nutty flavour of the sesame. Another accompanying dish, eaten en masse across Asia is, of course, rice. Here you can find the northern speciality of com lam. For this dish, young bamboo is stuffed with a mixture of rice, water and sometimes coconut water. The package is then wrapped in banana leaves and cooked on a fire. The end result is fragrant, sweet and sticky rice which is the perfect accompaniment to the succulent meats and fresh vegetables. After a delicious and satisfying feast, when the sun has faded over the mountain, it is time to relax and enjoy a cup or two of Noc Suong the local rice wine . This powerful homebrew is a popular way to unwind and bond after a hard days work. Served from plastic water bottles while you sit atop tiny chairs, this clear spirit will keep you warm on the coldest of nights and make for a unforgettable night!
Festivals and events
One of the biggest festivals in Ba Be is the Long Tong Festival . This is a grand celebration in honour of the first rice crop of the new lunar year. On the 9th and 10th days of the first lunar month, people from all of the ethnic minority villages descend on the river bank, all dressed in their finest traditional outfits. The bright colours of the embroidered attire, the waving flags and the traditional decorations awaken the area with festival spirit. The fields are packed with stalls selling local delicacies which fill the air with mouthwatering scents. The festival features traditional rituals such as ceremonial offerings of local produce to the gods in order to pray for a prosperous year. This is one of the biggest social events of the year friends are reunited and enjoy catching up and joining in with the exciting activities. Here you can see a whole host of traditional games, music and dancing, everyone joining in with the jovial atmosphere. The stunning back of the mountains and lake make these celebrations extra special. As night crawls over the field, the celebrations are lit up with delicate, floating flower lanterns and a raging bonfire to ward off the cold.
Later in the year, sometime in March or April, after the first of the rains, the rare Ca Chien fish , known for growing up to 10 kilograms in weight, perform and exciting display as the fish splash through the waterfall in what looks like an intensely competitive race to the other side.

Due to the political atmosphere in Russia and the unprovoked attacks in Ukraine, we do not recommend traveling to Russia. Please inform yourself in advance about possible entry restrictions. Stay healthy and safe travels.
Railwayhero does not take responsibility for any rail company or country’s decision to limit or refuse travel.

Moscow: Historical Capital Of Russia
Politically and culturally, Moscow is a world metropolis of the first order. The Kremlin , the colorful St. Basil’s Cathedral and Red Square are globally recognized landmarks.
GUM , also on Red Square, is Russia’s largest department store and one of the world’s finest and most exclusive shopping addresses. In terms of cultural offerings, the sublime Bolshoi Theatre comes first with regular ballet and opera performances.

Kazan: Melting Pot Of Religions
Kazan unites the Russians and the Tatars as well as Christian and Muslim culture like no other city in Russia . Nowhere in the city can this be seen more clearly than in the heart of Kazan.
There, the Kazan Kremlin , itself a UNESCO World Heritage Site, is flanked by the Russian Orthodox Cathedral of the Annunciation and the Kul Sharif Mosque .
Something worth checking out is the Temple of All Religions , a miscellaneous mix of stylistic elements from 16 different religions, which houses a gallery, a museum, and a concert hall. Back in the center of town is Bauman Street and is well known to Kazan.
Kazan → Yekaterinburg | Duration: 12:50-14:35 h | Transfers: 0

Yekaterinburg: Border Town Between Europe And Asia
Our next stop on this Trans-Siberian Route is Yekaterinburg, which 40 kilometers east of the geographical border between Europe and Asia. In July 1918 the tsar’s family was murdered here and today, the most famous building in the city, the “ Cathedral on the Blood “, commemorates this event.
A few steps away, the turquoise blue façade of the Ascension Cathedral catches the eye. Lenin Prospekt , Yekaterinburg’s main street is lined on both sides with most of the most famous sights.

Red Line Hostel Four Elements Ekaterinburg
Novosibirsk: Capital Of Siberian Culture
The Trans-Siberian Railway plays a central role in the history of Novosibirsk . Its construction is the reason why the city was founded and today the metropolis is the economic and cultural center of Siberia .
After the Bolshoi , the Academic Opera and Ballet Theatre is the most famous theatre in Russia.
The Museum of Railway History of Western Siberia pays tribute to the Trans-Siberian Railway . And the Sanduny baths allow you to relax by visiting a traditional Russian bathhouse with massages and saunas.
Novosibirsk → Irkutsk | Duration: 28:58-33:48 h | Transfers: 0

Hello Hostel AZIMUT Hotel Siberia
Lake Baikal: The World’s Largest Freshwater Lake
Finally, the Trans-Siberian Railway will take you to Irkutsk . The town at Lake Baikal owes its nickname to the numerous beautiful wooden houses, which give the place a romantic and comfortable atmosphere.
Since Irkutsk is not located directly at Lake Baikal , it is advisable to continue to Listvyanka 65km away by car or bus. There you can stay overnight directly at the lake and make excursions whether it be dog sledding, fishing, or much more!
This route is finished but that doesn’t mean you need to be too! You can either take a direct train (3 days) back to Moscow, or continue in a direction you haven’t been yet to Mongolia , or China . Take a look at this route on the Trans-Mongolian while you’re at it.
