Descrizione
Hike through the Son Tra Peninsula on a guided tour from Da Nang. Visit the Linh Ung Pagoda, spot endangered douc langurs, and enjoy panoramic views from Ban Co Peak.
Begin your morning at 7:00 AM at the Cham Museum, where your guide meets you before heading to Linh Ung Pagoda on the peninsula's lower slopes. The pagoda sits at the water's edge and is home to Vietnam's tallest Lady Buddha — 67 meters of white stone looking out across the South China Sea. In the early morning, before the tour buses arrive, the atmosphere here is genuinely peaceful.
From the pagoda, the trek begins. Hike 7 kilometers of forested trail, climbing steadily through the Son Tra canopy. At Monkey Island Viewpoint — roughly the halfway mark — the forest opens up to wide views back over Da Nang and the coast. The douc langurs are frequently spotted in the trees around here: bright-faced, red-shouldered, and completely uninterested in anything you're doing.
At Ban Co Peak, the forest gives way to a full 360-degree panorama: Da Nang city, the Han River, Marble Mountains to the south, and the South China Sea to the east. It's the kind of view that makes you understand a city from the inside out. A 7-seater vehicle meets the group at the summit — no descent required — and has you back at the meeting point by 11:30 AM.

INFORMAZIONI IMPORTANTI
- **Fitness level:** Moderate to challenging. This is a rewarding 7km jungle trek with sustained uphill sections. Regular walkers and hikers will manage it well — it is not recommended for those who rarely exercise.

- **What to bring:** At least 1.5L of water, sunscreen, insect repellent, light rain jacket, and snacks for the trail.
- **Start time:** 7:00 AM sharp. The trail is best done before the heat of the day builds.
