Cloud hunting - trekking in Dalat

This 2 days / 1 night trekking journey takes you into Da Lat, weaving together Da Lat at a calm, well-paced rhythm. A French colonial hill station at 1,500m, with pine forests, lakes, coffee plantations and waterfalls.

You travel with an English-speaking guide and comfortable transport, so the timing stays flexible. Pickup, pace and stops are shaped around your group rather than a rigid coach timetable, and the route favours quieter moments over the busiest tourist spots.

Why this route works

Da Lat is in the Central Highlands, a six-hour drive or 50-minute flight from Saigon. Spread across 2 days / 1 night, the itinerary has time to settle in — you catch the landscape at dawn and dusk, and still move through varied scenes each day. The result is a route that feels both efficient and genuinely restful.

What you will experience

• Trail context — a guide who reads weather, condition and group fitness so the trek pace stays right.
• Local meals — set-menu lunches built around regional specialities and seasonal produce.

Who is this tour for

Best suited to travellers who want the scenery and culture of Da Lat without the tourist-trail crowds — couples, small families, photographers and curious independent travellers. Trekking sections require a basic level of fitness and sturdy footwear; the overall pace is unhurried, with light walking and seated transport between stops. The multi-day format suits those who would rather settle in than tick boxes.
