BRIEF ITINERARY
Sapa - Sa Seng - Hang Da - Hau Thao - Sapa
Met up at your hotel in Sapa by Sapa Trekking Travel Guide and driver for a short road transfer along the national road 4D northeastwards to the trekking point. Trekking uphill on a large and rocky path for 2 hours along the narrow valley which runs between two high mountains passing two hamlets of the Black Hmong of Sa Pa Commune: Sau Chua and Sa Seng. The Hmong peoples here have just recently changed their living way from a sifting style to the sedentary one. So there are still a lot of traces of the past time can be seen: rudimentary houses, stone walls around homes… Lunch break in the village.
After lunch, continue along the same trail gradually uphill the Den Thang mountain for an hour to Hang Da Village of the H’mong which sits at 1,800m height and over looking down the Muong Hoa Valley. Paying visits to several local homes.
Leaving Hang Da and enjoy an easy walk on high elevation for half an hour which offers a great view of Muong Hoa Valley until arriving to Thao Hong Den, another village of the Black H’mong. Paying visits to several local homes. This portion of the trek offers chances for taking the best photos of landscapes.
Getting downhill for another hour along a dirt track to the center of Hau Thao Commune. Picked up and transfer back to Sapa.
