Nui Chua World Biosphere Reserve with its forest, sea and semi-desert space offers different experiences for visitors when visiting the land of sun and wind.


The special trekking route with the sea on one side and the mountains on the other leaves a deep impression on visitors when coming to Ninh Thuan.

Nui Chua National Park (VQG) is a tourist destination that attracts tourists when visiting Ninh Thuan province because of its diverse, rich ecosystem and wild beauty.

With an altitude of only 1,039 m above sea level, the journey to conquer Nui Chua has been difficult for many trekkers due to the harsh climate and constantly changing terrain. There are many trekking routes for tourists who love to exercise and explore the nature of Ninh Thuan such as conquering Da Do peak, Nui Chua peak, Nui Ong peak, Am Du lake, 5-storey waterfall...

Below are two trekking routes lasting two days and one night with easy and advanced levels, often chosen by tourists for their journey to explore Nui Chua National Park.

As the only trekking route that has both sea and mountains, this tour to Nui Chua National Park and stone park allows visitors to admire the wonders that nature has bestowed upon Ninh Thuan.

“The landscape here is truly unique. During the trekking trip, I not only got to see the mountains and forests of the National Park but also the beautiful blue beaches of Ninh Thuan. The experience of climbing over cliffs close to the sea left me with an unforgettable impression,” said Mr. Quoc Thinh (Ho Chi Minh City) after the trekking trip.

Next, everyone will admire the most majestic beach on this route, Bai Thung (also known as Vung Thung). This is a pristine beach, known as one of the 8 "fairies" of Ninh Thuan province.

The intense heat challenges the conquerors

The journey is not only about sun and wind. On the way to conquer Nui Chua, visitors will have the opportunity to admire the unique stratification of the vegetation here.

After continuing to cross the thorny vegetation, you will come to the cool, peaceful Lo O stream. Hidden in the middle of the jungle, Lo O stream is divided into many levels with large rocks of many shapes arranged on both sides of the bank. Here visitors can rest, bathe, and relax in the fresh water.

Patches of moist tropical forest begin to appear as visitors move higher. Passing through the dry vegetation, the cool green O Lim valley appears. This is a land of lush green grasslands, surrounded on all sides by high mountains.

Visitors must overcome many different types of terrain and vegetation before reaching the 1,039 m milestone.

Trekkers will quickly forget the fatigue they have just experienced and immerse themselves in the natural space here. This valley is also a place where tourists often choose to camp overnight, organize barbecue parties and watch the starry sky without being affected by light pollution.

After overcoming the challenges of harsh climate and unique terrain during the trekking journey, visitors will reach the top of Nui Chua (also known as Co Tuy peak) located at an altitude of 1,039 m above sea level. Visitors can take check-in photos to mark their journey of conquest here.
