National Parks in Vietnam

Visit National Parks in Vietnam

From rugged mountains in North Vietnam to white-sand beaches on the south coast: 33 different National Parks in Vietnam protect this country’s beautiful nature. The national parks consist of various ecosystems, including land, river deltas, and coastal and marine areas. The first area that was designated as a national park was Cat Ba National Park in 1986, Phia Oac – Phia Dén National Park and the Tà Dùng National Park located in the Central Highlands were the last areas added to the list in 2018.

When to visit a National Park in Vietnam?

Popular national parks are best visited during weekdays, as they are popular with locals on weekends. Each park has at least one ranger station, in the larger national parks accommodation is available and food and drinks are sold.

Top 10 National Parks in Vietnam

These are the 10 most beautiful national parks in Vietnam:

  • Visit Ba Be National Park (since 1992) for its vast lakes, cascading waterfalls, and green woodland. You can reach the three lakes of Ba Be by motorbike in 4 days.
  • Close to Hue is Bach Ma National Park (since 1991). The area is known for various waterfalls and the presence of monkeys.
  • Cat Ba National Park (since 1986) is part of Cat Ba Island, located in Ha Long Bay – visit the area for a trekking through the dense jungle.
  • Between Dalat and Ho Chi Minh City lies Cat Tien National Park (since 1992), one of the largest remaining areas of jungle in Vietnam. You can reach Cat Tien National Park by motorbike.
  • Part of Con Dao Island is Con Dao National Park (since 1993). The area is known for manatees, turtles, and pristine white-sand beaches.
  • Close to Ninh Binh is Cuc Phuong National Park (since 1994), known for the presence of over 300 different bird species which flutter around the area.
  • Hoang Lien National Park (since 2002) is located close to Sapa. The mountains make this national park ideal for trekking, mountain climbing, and visiting ethnic minority communities.
  • Phong Nha-Ke Bang National Park (since 2001, Unesco World Heritage since 2003) is one of the top sights of Vietnam. This national park is home to some of the world’s largest caves. Our Easy Riders are ready to take you to Phong Nha, or start your next adventure from Phong Nha.
  • Ta Dung National Park (since 2018) is the newest addition to the list of national parks in Vietnam. It’s nicknamed ‘Ha Long Bay of the Central Highlands‘ and located about 150 kilometers south of Dalat. We will visit Ta Dung during the three-day Loop from Dalat and the three-day motorcycle tour from Dalat to Ho Chi Minh City.
  • Close to Buon Ma Thuot is Yok Don National Park (since 1991), with 115 hectares the largest national park in Vietnam. Four communities of ethnic minorities live inside of the park.

Beautiful nature reserves that are not national parks

Why are the mysterious limestone formations of Ha Long Bay and Ninh Binh (Tam Coc & Trang An) not included in the overview above? These nature reserves are not officially designated as national parks. Halong Bay is on the Unesco World Heritage List (since 1994), just like Trang An (since 2016). In addition, Halong Bay is one of the New 7 Wonders of the World in the Nature category.

But hey, don’t take our word for it…

Wonderful 3 day tour of Ha Giang Loop

“Really loved this tour! My guide, Mr. Phuong, did a great job – explained everything well, and provided lots of flexibility throughout the trip. We even went off-road, something group tours didn’t do. My tour was a private 3 day/2 night from Hanoi. The homestays were also comfortable, and I learned a lot about both the region and culture. You’ll be able to stop for coffee and food all the time – plenty of places to take a break in between the rides. Would highly recommend!”

Phong Nha to Hoi An

“My friend and I took a 3-day tour from Phong Nha to Hoi An. The tour was amazing and we were so glad we booked it as we have seen a lot of interesting sites which we would not have visited otherwise. There was also a nice alternation between the enjoying nice views, swimming and sites related to the Vietnam war. We had Cuong and Hiep as our guides. They are really good drivers and we’re always very careful. They made us feel comfortable on the motorbike which ensured that we could enjoy the scenery while driving. Also of the motorbike, they looked after us, making sure our hotel room was good, that we enjoyed the food and they gave a lot of explanation at each stop. The tour was so good I would immediately book it again.”

A perfect motorbike tour

“My boyfriend and me joined the private Ha Giang loop tour for 3 days, and it was an incredible experience from the first moment. Phoung, Dung, Son and Loi warmely welcomed us and helped us preparing for the tour. The ride itself was thrilling, with breathtaking views around every corner and made even more special by the off the beaten paths we followed where we could enjoy the view with no tourists at all (that was really a plus! A big thanks to the team). For anyone eager for a memorable motorbike ride this tour is perfect! Highly recommend!”

7 Cracking Days with Mr Vu

“Mr Vu Rocks! 7 days, HCM to Hoi An via HCM trail. Great route thru Vietnamese backroads with Mr Vu sharing his passion and insights into Vietnamese history, culture, and love for his country was exceptional. You couldn’t ask for a better guide and itinerary. Go Mr Vu!”

Hanoi to Hoi An with Vu

“We had an amazing 11 day tour with Mr Vu from Hanoi to Hoi An. Vu took us off the beaten track and we saw some really unique places, as well as popular destinations. We always felt safe and comfortable, Vu made sure of that. The equipment (riding gear, helmet, microphones) were all in great shape and added to the experience. We can’t recommend Vu and his team enough, and we will be back for future holidays.”

Trip from Mui Ne to Mekong and Ho Chi Minh (5D 4N)

“Me and my friend had an amazing time with Jack and LuKa. They tried their hardest to make it an unforgetable experience. 2 days before our long trip we did a day tour in Da Lat and wanted to finish our 4 week trip with an multiple day tour so we picked this one. We never felt unsafe on the motorbike and they drove very carefully. You’ll get to see a lot of things you wouldnt see if you werent on a motorbike trip with these experienced drivers. We stopped at multiple local restaurants where no other tourists stopped and visited some locals at their home. If we could do it over again we would choose multiple tours. Thanks for the amazing experience guys!!”

Trip from Hue to Hoi An with Viet

“I did this motor trip with my friend. We had very nice guides named Viet and dung. They showed us nice places and stopped at beautiful views for pictures. They drived save and they had protecting clothes for us. We liked it very much!!”

Easyriders with Mr Viet

“We did have a great day with the easyriders today. We travelled from Hue to Elephant spring, had a great lunch ar Langco beach, then travelled to de Hai Van pass, Danang and Marble mountains. We loved the day also my teenagers loved it. We felt very save and secure. We had helmets and vlotjes. I recommend everybody to book with the easyriders. Thank you for one of the greatest day of our life.”
