Conquering Hang De Cho waterfall, "the four great dead lands" of the Northwest

23/07/2023

"Hang De Cho is completely different from the waterfalls I've been to. When I saw the waterfall flowing down from above and hitting the cliff like a strip of cloud, it looked so magical, hard to describe in words," Duc Giang shared with Travellive.

Hang De Cho Waterfall is located deep in the mountains and forests, with an inconvenient route that makes many tourists wary. Hang De Cho (Hang Te Cho) is always a difficult challenge, but the wild, captivating beauty of the waterfall makes travelers "restless". Because he "fell in love" with the waterfall through the film footage, Chu Duc Giang (Travel Blogger Going with Yang) was determined to set foot here.

HANG WATERFALL, ATTRACTIVE AND WILD IN THE MIDDLE OF THE NORTHWEST MOUNTAINS AND FORESTS

The incredibly beautiful scenery along the road makes all the hardships of struggling on the way to the waterfall seem to disappear. Wherever you go, the wild and peaceful scenery of the Northwest mountains and forests opens up before your eyes. The stilt houses are hidden in the green of the terraced fields, the clear chirping of birds in the large, inviting space.

CONQUERING THE "FOUR GREAT DEAD SITES", WHAT SHOULD BE NOTED?

The distance from town to the waterfall is about 20 km. The further you go, the narrower and more winding the road becomes. Many gravel and boulders on the roadside and steep slopes make the journey more difficult. "The first half of the journey is quite smooth, but the remaining part of the road is under repair so it is very difficult to travel. If you are not confident in your driving skills, it is best to hire a local driver," he noted.

Cung đường khó nhằn là nỗi lo của nhiều người, nhưng cũng là một thử thách thú vị với dân ưa xê dịch.

The difficult route is a concern for many people, but also an interesting challenge for those who love to travel.

Motorbikes are the most suitable means of transport to conquer the road to Hang De Cho waterfall. From the center of Son Tinh town, Van Chan district, you can rent a motorbike for only 100,000 VND/bike/day. The luggage should be neat, simple, suitable for trekking on mountain roads. You can prepare some food and drinks to eat when you reach the waterfall. Note that you should fill up the gas before the trip because if you go deep into the village, there will be no place to fill up the gas.

In particular, do not forget to check the weather information carefully before your trip to explore Hang De Cho. You should choose a sunny, dry day to have a satisfactory trip. Although they knew it would rain, Duc Giang and his group still decided to come here. Luckily, the weather was still sunny when they arrived at the waterfall, but when they left, it rained, making the road muddy and slippery.
