5 Stopps
Day 1

Đà Lạt → Elephant Waterfall & Silk Mill → Pongour Waterfall → Di Linh (110 km)

Depart Đà Lạt along scenic countryside roads. Stop at local flower greenhouses, family rice wine distilleries, and a traditional silk weaving mill. Scramble down the canyon gorge of Elephant Waterfall (Thác Voi) and stand in awe before the 71m Lady Buddha at Linh Ẩn Pagoda. Taste authentic highland weasel and robusta coffee on a local farm. Marvel at the colossal 7-tiered stepped cascades of Pongour Waterfall before riding into the peaceful highland plateau town of Di Linh for an overnight stay.

💡 Insider-Tipp: Bring water shoes or grip sandals for walking safely along the stepped rock terraces of Pongour.
Day 2

Di Linh → K'Ho Tribal Villages → Dragon Fruit Farms → Mũi Né Beach (120 km)

Ride along the scenic historic country route past cashew nut plantations and indigenous K'Ho mountain villages. Descend towards the coast through vast orchards of dragon fruit cactus. Explore the dramatic Red and White Sand Dunes of Mũi Né, visit the bustling fishing harbor with hundreds of colorful coracle boats, and enjoy an evening seafood dinner and overnight stay beside the beach in Mũi Né.

💡 Insider-Tipp: Rent a sand-sled to slide down the soft slopes of the Mũi Né sand dunes at sunset!
Day 3

Mũi Né → Rubber Plantations → Mountain Trek → Rolling Tea Estates → Bảo Lộc (130 km)

Leave the coast and climb through rubber plantations and lush mountain foothills into the cooler tea plateaus.

Descend from the tea plateau into the red-soil rolling hills of Bình Phước.

Cruise along peaceful country roads beneath towering canopies of rubber trees and achiote (curry) farms.
