Fansipan

Fansipan Peak, located about 9 kilometers west of Sapa Town, belongs to the Hoang Lien Son Mountain Range and is the tallest mountain in Vietnam, standing at 3,143 meters. It has been dubbed "the Rooftop of Indochina." Fansipan translates to "Hua Si Pan" in the local language (aka Huge Rock).

Climbing the top of Fansipan, you will enjoy all the wonderful things that the nature of the mountains and forests here bestows such as: watching the scenery of clouds and wind mixed with grass and flowers in the forest, going through huge rocks, the deep holes, craggy cliffs, or forest of red Do Quyen flowers on the mountain, clouds cover the way.

Conquering Fansipan's summit is a challenge in and of itself because you must be physically fit and have extensive hiking and trekking experience. Hiring a local guide or porter to escort your groups is highly recommended because he can lead you on the right and safest trekking path; assist you with carrying some items, and prepare meals while on the journey.
